I suspect the image you have formed in your head of Alfatwo is very wrong!
Really? then why does he never back up his claims?

I' m not say that some of his claims are anything other than tongue in cheek. But I have seen some foto's and read about some of his projects in the past, he is or was in the business of building/restoring modifying cars the ones I've heard of being mainly Italian.
And I'd be surprised if your image of his appearance is right
Exactly! It's not impossible that you can get 120 bhp out of a 1.2 or that someone might have got a yeye green Abarth or even that he fitted the updated rear end to his car (entirely possible!) but the fact that he never backs anything up with evidence.
I trust sealobo much more, he's been on this forum a number of weeks and is the first person that we know of to put Bilstein's on his car and he's posted pictures of his car before and after, pictures of the kit with the forum behind it to prove that it's him. Now if this was all an elaborate hoax (not suggesting it is) then he will get found out because someone will see someone else claiming someone elses pictures as their own.
We've got no proof of AlfaTwo's claims and as far as I'm concerned until he posts some actual evidence he's a dirty stinking rotten liar and nothing more.
But when people question his claims he never says "Oh I was joking" and if not admitting that he's just having a joke is his idea of a joke then it's a pretty poor one at that.

I don't see any dyno sheets for 120bhp 500's there, no Ye Ye Green 500 Abarth's and no pictures of him changing the rear axle on his car.

Surely if he can build the race cars on there changing the rear axle is a posiblity
I'm not saying he's not capable.Surely if he can build the race cars on there changing the rear axle is a posiblity
I've got as much right as anyone else on here
It's not just me either as you can plainly see.alfatastic

But did the pictures match the image in your head?
Liars come in all shapes and forms
Boo-frickin-hoo. That's the way forums work. If you're going to say something that seems a bit unlikely then you're going to get asked to prove it.That'll be none, then
What? Asking for proof? Yes

Well perhaps those of us here with our 1.2s would like a little help in finding all those extra horses, but without accusing anyone of being a liar, each time a follow up question is asked there is no response whatsoever. The Panda rally cars are rated at around 120bhp so we all know it is possible.
Yeah 100bhp/L is not impossible at all. It would just be interesting to see what work was required to get it there if AlfaTwo is actually has actually got 120 horsies out of his 1.2. Like you say if he is getting that much horsepower he's being extremely unhelpful.

I second that. :slayer:
That's a piece of info that they haven't included on their webpage. They only list it for 1.3 & 1.4.

Just remebered I need to say thanks Grim, that code still works.
