This silver Spider is a mess But your red one make up for that twice!

Your engine bay looks like a pharmacy!

Welcome!

@ALXege Yes, I agree, Phase 2 interior is nicer but it's mostly because of the circular air diffusers on the top, what I love about Ph1 are those large and emphasized central gauges. In this combination they work rather well. I choosed aluminum-look flat bottom to match the console and that was a good decision, it blends well. Maybe I'd go for Ph2 conversion, but when I saw what is needed to do it, it's only for crazy ones - like Charlee! @charlee I can imagine, our regional community is really well connected and every news spreads in no time!

Installed! I am very very happy! Here is one teaser photo from the garage until I make some quality photos on daylight!

And as I said few months ago, I have a new upgrade, it's finally finished, the waiting list was rather long, almost 6 months, but it's here now... Now I need the puller tool to remove the old one out... I hope I'll find it this week and then make a proper photo of the interior.

It's hard to say, but I think it's faster. It delivers power in a completely different way, so I can't compare it. Once, we'll try to dragrace it!

Those "vortex generators", are they real deal or just some trendy gimmick? Is there some wind-tunnel data about how it works?

VooMan you are crazy! You'll be at home here, welcome! So, this is a 430hp GTV? We have a nice collection of insane mods here already, this one is among the best.

I've tested GTV 2.0 Twin Spark Turbo this morning! It's pretty crazy! The whole driving experience is a very different to 3.0 V6. Busso is silky smooth and powerful throughout the range and this is a different beast - it's almost lazy in the lower range but above 4.500 rpm it gets utterly mad! I've warped up the hill in no time with blowoff valve hissing and engine screaming with freeflow exhaust. What a experience! I hope the engine will endure, now it's set to 0.5 bar.

Great! Thanks for the photos!

Hi and welcome!

The whole setup is done very tidy and professionally:

I love the way how he integrated the intercooler in the front bumper:

Not sure at the moment (yet to go on dyno) but according to Megasquirt mapping it should now be in 220-240 range. It can go higher, but maybe with forged pistons if it's to last. I'll report how it performs compared to my fully standard 3.0. The sound is great: http://dpasaric.kreativni.hr/Alfa fotke/Alfa audio-video/GTV TwinSpark Turbo.MOV

Around 1000 euros in Croatia.

I expected nothing less from you! I knew that I can rely on you when weight details are in question! It's true that it's very heavy. I think there is no option now for me but to go on diet and to lose some weight!

I'd say I have some very cool friends - I've got this MTech short shifter as a gift! It's compatible with both 5 and 6-gear 916s and I hope I'll have time to install it next week. Is there anyone here that already uses one? Any hints about the installation?

Croatia. We used to have map with locations of users on the former version of our forum, so maybe that's the best way to show it. We'll see what Charlee The Admin has to say about it.. One thing is sure - we are truly international group!

It must have been a great drive! One day I'll come to Stelvio!

That's true, it feels very solid and heavy, not a choice of racers I'd guess!

I have a new detail! Aluminum fuel cap from alfisti.net. However, the story is not simple at all: Alfa Romeo changed the system completely from 2001 so good deal of 916 models is on the old system and this cap is only for newer Alfas. I thought that it would be enough to disassemble the original fuel cap and remove the plastic top but the diameter is different for a few mm and you can't just mount aluminum one on the old system. So, I had to do extensive modifications: keep the original plastic cap but cut it flat on top, then cut 3 holes to fit 3 tooths on the aluminum one and then scrub off two large circular tooths inside aluminum one so that old plastic cap could fit snugly into the aluminum one. On the end I used two-component super-glue to fix it. All in all it's a 4-5 hours job but it's worth it!

Sunny day in our harbour...
