30-110 mph in a capri.....
« on: January 14, 2010, 02:11:00 AM »

this past sunday i had a visitor ...bryan knight came up from knoxville to dig through my pile o parts in my garage... ended up taking home a bunch of goodies to fix his capri ...
while he was here we dug my capri out from under about 4 inches of snow... and after about 15 minutes of tinkering and jumpstarting my dead battery it came alive ... we let it warm up and took it for a hot lap in my neighborhood....

with both of us in the car, we managed to get a good pull out of it... after rolling through first to roughly 30 mph and putting it in second, i matted it.. and we managed to bring it to 110 mph, spinning through the top of third gear in roughly a 1/4 of a mile...
to all that think im full of the brown stuff as to how fast my capri is, i now have a fellow capri owner who has witnessed it first hand... bryan please attest to this so i can put all BS aside....

its cool joe i am going need the help anyway and sence you have got yours so hpowerd up its seem your be a good help to make it happen    and i dont know about the dyno thing there not a car dyno around me they only have engine dynos here andi really dont care what it runs i just want to turn heads and piss people off... as of now i cant even get a race peopel just laugh. so im going to give them something to laugh about (THE OTHER GUY BEING SO FAR BEHIND)  i really believe i  can get my turbo vj14 hole shot.. and the 16g long run and can really get a moving on

oh shit ... dont worry about that, when we get her to that point, youll just have to drive the two hrs north again...
 thare are 4 dynos here in lexington, a dynapac hub dyno at RTC , a dynojet at fast enough performance, and sr racing equipment, even has a dyno dynamics AWD dyno
in case you need to throw a wrx or evo on the rollers....we can get you a sheet, and tune it dont worry about that.....
