ALFAGTV6.COM

Good day Alfisiti's. I have a Guilietta V6 2.5i. I am in the beginning stages to fit twin turbo. Do you have any suggestions/advise regarding cooling system, EFI. will I be using one or two airflowmeters with a twin intake or use the standard EFI?

id suggest no airflow meteres at all...save yourself the trouble and go a stand alone engine management system like an autronic or something from the beginning. by the way what have you done to the motor?

just basics, gasflow, cams(288 duration 11.5 lift on inlet and 7.9 lift on exhaust) bigger airflowmeter (BMW 733i), performance exhaust. I am busy fitting a 'box in front with Alfa Six diff at the back. Alfa Six Braking system (4 pod brembo).

ye not bad the alfa six was. i actually saw one in real life a few months ago and was impressed with the 4 pot brakes and rear diff setup. id always none about them but as they were never sold here never seen one in life before. if u have spare time u think u could share with us some pics and info on your front mount box conversion. i too am pondering this option or the use of a front drive transaxle mounted at the rear in the de dion....hahha...maybe i could even hook up a selespeed system to it. jokes jokes. nah but really a 6 speed gearbox from some front driver could be made to work.

i'm sure I could fit in a few pics as soon as i'm finished. from start to finish. you need to cut the body work though. but only a little. the only 'box that will do the job is a BMW 325 box. it wont be a six speed though. It is very difficult to get the alfasix sedan 'box in manual as most of them came out in auto in South Africa. I came across one auto a few months ago that was still in good shape but I stripped it for spares as I only brought it for the prop diff and front braking system which is also very scares because of the fact that the Alfasix sedan was never a popular car but the only Alfa V6 with a front mounted g'box and a diff on the de dion the same size as a GTV6 g'box. now the search begins for a V6 flywheel that mounts on the crank to fit the g'box in front. but I will keep you posted.

Dawie,Find a 164 manual flywheel or a new 156/gt manual flywheel..problems solved..New from dealer-about R1200.00
As for the box,go BMW 535i Gertrag box,either dogleg short ratio or std pattern averdrive fifth..

thanks a lot Barry. help appreciated. do you have any suggestions to the head gaskets. which to use. there is a place in the USA that make copper gaskets and they charge about R1200 for both. thats not bad to what we pay for standard ones. i did the V6 conv myself and I want to do this myself as well so I need all the help I can get.

Have them done locally...and use our sealing rings..Im doing a 20l turbo with copper and rings at the moment...
Shout if you want to have a look...

thanks that would be great. if you can give me the address we can arrange a meeting.
