Alfa Romeo 147 JTD Diesel Tuning System

I'd avoid it if I were you, looks strikingly familiar to what was attached to my 156 JTD when I bought it, it needed a replacement ECU as it was knackered, thanks to the chip

New calipers eh? What are you thinking exactly? I think getting on a group buy on the gtr forum at the moment for a big brake kit, sick of waiting on Brembos and its too much work to make them fit.

Remap your car!!!

To be fair, I don't think you could go wrong with a P-box, but you need to be sure about the remapper you use.
