Re: 550hp+ Alfa 75 Twin Spark Turbo

that is insane! :twisted:
what is done about the driveshaft?
do you know any specs of the engine, CR, valve sizes, monosleeve?
corect me if wrong but wouldnt the plenum need to be upgraded for those hp levels? and the distributers replaced with wasted spark or individual coil packs?
