Mk1 V8 Capri

Post by r2d2hp »

Had a few body work mods done last year so thought I would put up a new picture.

Fitted with TVR 4.3 V8 and now added Powerdyne SC running 3psi boost putting out 314bhp and 320 ft torque.

Image

New SC pulley on order to increase boost to 7psi

Hello R2,

Very nice indeed!

Do you run a dual exhaust system or a big bore single?
