That's one of the main reasons i dislike selling alfa parts. Just because the bumper has been changed and rear tail lights. Everyone seems to get their panties all ruffled up. Specially the guys who claim to be true alfistas.

Bringing up an extremely old post from the dead. Anybody ever make 3.0 12v header flanges? Similiar to the old shankle headers. A cad drawing can also work. Thanks

Thanks for the answers guys. Zamani is right about the quality of stuff that's coming out of China. Some items can be good and others can be bad. That's why I asked about Quality Control . That's what it really comes down to. The H beam design is proven and has worked well for me in the past. If the...

Where are these rods manufactured? What's the weight? Do they all weight the same?

Fernando. Sometimes the nice things about cars that are not too common is that you can actually tell a tech that that's how it came from the factory. Your car would look great going down highway 1. Some smog tech's are just too much. My car once passed with a 0.00 reading. They had to redo the test ...

Yes Zamani. San Mateo and specially Daly City. Most of the time the euro cars are overlooked. Jap cars and camaro's and mustangs are the target. I don't even take my truck out too much since I have been running without a cat for a while now. Smog laws are the main reasons I sold off almost all of my...

Let me drop my 2 cents. In cali, In order to be smog exempt. I believe your car has to be 74 and older. Might be 75 as of this year. Don't expect that to change. They are thingking of even smoging older cars now. In the SF bay area. Some cans are driving behind you and doing the sniffer test. If you...

I own a syclone and The stock intercooler are good to about 500. They are very small and many guys to upgrade or either go to an air to air setup. Many syclone owners do extensive datalogging and after a quarter mile. The temp can go up about 20 degrees. Even with an aftermarket pump. It's better to...

Yes Greg. Guys that are building turbo engines.(at least here in the U.S) are going that route. A friend and a member from another BB was running his vehicle with 28 or so lbs of boost. That engine went south. He decided it was time for his new one. He is making more Hp right now at 20 then he was m...
