I had an 80 Capri that we swapped a turbo 4 out of a 79 pace car. You could definitely tell the difference.

Here is a pic of my newest toy. I will get better ones when the weather clears up some.

Heres a quick dyno clip of one of the cars I am involved with. The wiring is mine, ground up with power windows and even a radio to keep it a "street car". I actually ran the Accel DFI system in my Turbo Escort before selling it to him, so it has seen 200hp and it's seen over 1500hp, pretty adaptable little system
(The dyno only reads to 1500hp, it left the graph 3/4 of the way thru the pull so we aren't completely sure what it's true numbers are, we just care about the air/fuel anyway). I am not the owner but I take great pride in being involved with these guys and can't wait to get rewiring for this season
This car is now apart and is being converted to a full tube chassis and 67 fastback promod body as it has kind of outgrew its 99 mustang unibody lol

Here's my 92 Volvo 240 wagon. It's got 60K miles on it and it's in amazing condition. I swapped out the large plastic hub caps for the smaller, earlier, 2 piece metal version.

Ah yes, the last of the aircooled Porsches, the end of an era.... probably my favorite of the modern P-cars. Congrats!!!
