General cinquecento trofeo project

[ycming]

ok im waiting for the barrage of(thought u said u would never go 16v???)
I only did this because engine no3 was slightly noisey and this complete conversion came along.
but I must eat humble pie cos this thing is friggen rapid.i estimate at least 95bhp with the mods ive fitted,
95bhp/647kg = lots of grins lol

Am glad you can experience the differences between the 16 and 8 . Always gonna be one winner.

Oh and that is interesting about the john Ashley, if i knew that it would made my life so much easier, got a supersprint now....

I suspect with their pricing they will sell alot more now.

Well done.

[jameswilliam383]

Where did you get your stickers from?

 

[medion6969]

I'd be inclined to paint it red or yellow.

 

[medion6969]

I may do that mate but theres a sump guard going on soon so it will prob be removed then anyhow

 

[Lecook]

Also get that hideous blue induction horn painted in red or yellow.. youll understand what I mean if you do it

 

[medion6969]

Looks good the way it is mate thanks

 

[medion6969]

well that's the 14" abarth speedline fitted and I think there a much better fit compaired to the 13" versions
fitted new maxxis zr71 185 50 r14 tyres and there as grippy as my old yokohama a539s so far

 

[cartledge_uk]

Very nice! And I think your right, the 13" look small in the arch on mine as its not lowered. Your 14" fit the arch nicely (IMO)

 

[medion6969]

[medion6969]

had a great day at Stanford hall,was good to see lots of familiar faces and and cars

well finally got my dexcraft carbon fibre throttle body bob fitted.
also removed my 2nd rpm/shift light/multi gauge and fitted a isotta sequential gear shift light.(not many of these about now)
oil pressure gauge

voltmeter gauge

Mate does the dexcraft worth over the strada bob ? Any measurable gains ?
