Capri 2.8 conversion kit in preparation

Please click here to download further 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.
