Turbo questions
« on: October 11, 2018, 01:44:51 PM »

Does the '92 Capri have an intercooler? If so where is it? Also, is it possible/practical to have a blow-off valve on the turbo along with the wastegate?

Ok so I've looked into it and realized how strange this question is. How about this: Can anyone give me advice as to where I could put a blow off valve?

The Capri has a bypass valve from the factory. It is connected to the crossover pipe on top of the valvecover. You can remove it and add your own BOV there. The return end must be capped off then
