Grande Punto my grande punto m-jet

[dazzerd]

What are the koni shocks like

To be honest they came with the car so can't comment on how much stiffer the ride is compared to standard but the ride isn't to hard and bumpy. Id recommend them as a good all rounder

Found it!! Thats my old car.. Wondered if I'd see it on here at some point!
They are Abarth calipers etc and the floating discs were from the Evo Esseesse. All genuine parts.. Anything you want to know about the cars history feel free to get in touch. I bought from new and traded in for an Alfa last year. Hope you're having fun in it!

Very nice, those wheels really suit the colour of the car, and what alfa have you gone for? Love an alfa

Miss the Grande but needed to get something a little big bigger and more of a cruiser so got a 159 2.4 Ti.. Love it!

Never been pulls as I don't give it any throttle when going past police .

K&n panel filter
Large front mount intercooler
Straight through 2.5inch exhaust
Hybrid turbo with 56mm compressor wheel.
Remap from Quantrum tuning in Uxbridge by a guy called peter.

Gearbox bearing are gone down to me flooring in first and second a lot. clutch is holding up well doesn't slip and its got a very high biting point.

Was a universal one from a place in Harlow called txautosports.

Yeah it surprises a lot of people keeps with golf gti Audi TT. Subaru's so one.

In two minds whether to strip the back interior or not to lighten it.

Did you have to make the intercooler fit then?
Thats my downfall, i cant weld, or fabricate crap so i cant get a universal ;

Do you have people in the back a lot? If you don't then do it! Just make sure you remove the seat belts!

Easy to fit. Two brackets to hold the intercooler up and some pipe work. Because the m-jet already has a fmic all the boost pipes are there.

Hardly ever have people in the back. Just the rattling and extra noise you get im unsure about

Nice. I do like t-jets wanted the abarth but couldnt efford insurance at the time so went for a m-jet.

I'll pull away from a mrk5 golf gti edition 30 which is 230bhp from 40 and it won't pass me at all
