Ninka Donating Members 1,850 Member For: 22y 19d Gender: Male Location: Perth, WA Posted 20/08/03 11:59 AM Share Posted 20/08/03 11:59 AM Has anyone had the capa kit fitted and if so how does it perform, im trying to decide between APS and capa any info would be appreciated cheers I had the CAPA 8-9 psi kit fitted as one of the first customers back in May, and apart from some minor adjustment issues, it works very well.The most important issue for me in selecting CAPA, is that they are boost specialists, and as such probably understand better than other companies, the consequenses of increasing the boost on the XR6T.Since sorting out the adjustment issues, I can run 8.5 - 9 psi boost reliably, and the car feels a lot stronger than standard.

Do you have a favorite drop to recomend, thanks vik.That could be the transmission cooler if you ordered the car with a towbar.I use Castrol Formula R 10w/60.
