Remaps are a good place to start as i've heard that alfa factory maps aren't fantastic. I know my 16v JTD isn't as its got three flat spots. I've seen a full engine conversion for £2400 for the GTA 3.2 24 valve fully fitted

my ford wasnt Tree proff.. Or was the tree ford proff..

i had R Rated Tyres fitted(ebay special) and as i found out only rated for just over 100mph so after a days worth of runs they give up on me. Luckly my boy racing/Cars not insured days paid off for me and probily saved my life

I did clean and polish her yesterday so I might have saved myself. Did fill her up with V-power diesel as a present just to make sure though.
