details about this phenomenal conversion kit.
This kit is identical to the
famous kits we produced in the 80's and 90's, which, when fitted to the new
Capri's would make 200bhp.
Producing power at high speed is relatively easy, but the aim of the development
programme was to build an engine which would also produce a high level of torque
from very low speed. The key to achieving this is the exhaust manifold and Turbo
Technics design expertise has produced a technically advanced pulse separation
configuration, using a single turbo. In conjunction with the carefully matched
Garrett T3 turbocharger, excellent low speed response is achieved, with minimal
turbo lag.
The resulting engine not only
gives exhilarating performance, but does so in a totally fuss-free manner, with
no perceptible transition to "boost" conditions. Economy is virtually
unaffected, and an effective intercooler in conjunction with a carefully
integrated system ensures a very high degree of reliability, for which Turbo
Technics have established a trend-setting reputation.
The kit uses the standard
compression ratio and runs with standard transmission and consists of a T3
turbocharger, manifold, intercooler, vacuum capsule, fuel enrichment air cone
block, oil feed and return pipes, cross pipe and a down pipe from the turbo as
well as all the pipe work and clips to plumb everything in. The only part not
included from the original kit is the complete exhaust system - see figure 13 in
drawings.
The Turbo system can be fitted in
a few days by any competent DIY-er and does not need to be carried out by
specialists. However, it is important that the engine is in good mechanical
condition before the kit is installed, especially if it has covered high
mileage.
