I have been given a pair of 40mm idf carbs which I believe came off a por ache. I believe I can jet these down and use on my sprint 1.5ti, however what are recommended main and choke jet sizes? Will these carbs fit on standard manifold or do I need an aftermarket item? ( if so does someone have...

Hi everyone. My son had a 147 and was going to fit lowering springs on it. He bought some new Eibach springs, then sold the car and never fitted them. I know he paid nearly £200 for them and I put them on ebay for £100, but no interest. What are they really worth?

Anyone installed a performance air filter in their Veloce ? What did you notice for Noise/performance/mpg? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi guys, Does anyone know if this kit would fit a mito 1.4 16v non turbo? it seems very similar to the one produced by GSR.

Hi, I’m considering jumping back into Alfa ownership. I used to own a 159 1750ti and she flew. However a pal had a 2.2 159 at the same time and envied the performance of my 1750...can anyone explain to me why the 1750 ti out performs the 2.2jts and can the 2.2 jts be improved with a remap ? I’m...

Hi my Giulietta is on 68,000 miles and I have been getting a slipping clutch its usually low RPM when putting the pedal to the floor. Car is 100% drivable but have been putting off a clutch as its not really getting on my nerves. I have seen a performance clutch kit for £500 that fits my 2.0...

Hi all, The heat shield around the exhaust on my 2009 Alfa Romeo Mito 1.4 TB 155 has broken off and part of it is still hanging underneath the car. The car just recently passed its MOT and service but I was advised to replace the exhaust by the garage. They've quoted me £268 including fitting...

Just put in an order for an Alfa Red Giulia Veloce. Beyond excited - first sort of sports car I've ever owned. Just wondering about the performance pack. This question has probably been asked numerous times, but is there a huge benefit with the LSD? I'm not too bothered about the adaptive...

Hi all, I have recently bought a Brera V6 3.2, and after driving it for a few weeks was wondering what is the best route to go to improve the performance. It has only done 43000 miles, and has a Wizard exhaust fitted by Autolusso which sounds great, but I am finding that it just needs a bit...

Hi Can FIATSCAN or MULTIECU be used to check the perfromance of the injectors on the 2003 2.0 JTS? If so, what do I look for (volume, time, consistency across the 4)? Thanks

Hello there folks, I’ve owned my Alfa 147 DC for 5 years and it’s never let me down. Apart from a remap and egr delete, it’s standard. I recently had my alloys refurbished to anthracite and they look great. I have noticed the wheels on the back look a bit lost in the Arch now they’re darker...

Looking at the new 2.5 engine available from partsworld, which is very good value, I am wondering what performance can be achieved from this engine. I am thinking:- Intake mods / changes Exhaust manifolds Throttle bodies with aftermarket ECU Cams - possibly and Porting - maybe Aim is for fast...

Afternoon all. I am shortly going to be removing my 15 month old Wizard stainless steel back box and BMC performance air filter from my Giulietta QV as I will be trading my car shortly. This is a great combo and has worked faultlessly on the car and sounds awesome. I am looking for £450 for the...

Just wondering what everyone has done to achieve gains (performance and handling) on their Twin Spark 147s? Mine's a 2006 1.6 Turismo on 17" Selespeed Alloys, quite a low tyre profile, does give a pretty hard ride, ha! Had the cambelt, aux belt, waterpump and cam gasket cover done in July not...

Hi All, I cannoty help but notice that the value of some 159's had fallen recently and the 2.4 Diesel in particular looks very good value (as long as it isn't Ti spec) As standard the 2.4 versions seem to have similar performance to my 2.0 170bhp Giulietta, but as they are ripe for remapping...

Afternoon all - I've been on the verge of buying a Giulia Veloce now for months, keep putting it off due to nagging thoughts about how the rwd will perform in wet, snow, ice conditions. Now I know we only get about two days of snow a year blah blah blah but I do a lot of transpennine driving and...
