I have on mine , and you get the chance to use your cylinder head gaskets in your gasket set.

I see you've made an essential upgrade of the car.....flirt horns(as we call them in Sweden), scares the shit out of girls at red light crosswalks.

Do you want to change engines..?

Exhaust manifolds from 166 is much more straighter/open than the GTV ones. stainless steel thermal conductivity: 16 Wm°K cast iron thermal conductivity: 58 Wm°K So stainless steel conducts less heat than cast iron, also the three sharp bends on the cast iron manifold contributes to heat losses and probably also has a negative effect on exhaust gas velocity from and scavenging on these three cylinders. The engine is not fully built yet, so it's too early to say anything about any difference.
-
It will probably be sorted until next winter.

GTV TB manifolds have smoother design ?... with three sharp bends? where the exhaust hits a wall when they leave the exhaust ports of the cylinder head, and cast iron that absorbs the heat from the exhaust gases and conducts it to engine bay instead of letting the heat act on the turbocharger turbine.
-
It's all about the exhaust headers...

ALFA ROMEO: 60623350 (GTV/SPIDER 3.0, 3.2) Outer Diameter: 149 mm Inner Diameter: 103.5 mm Height: 282 mm ALFA ROMEO: 60811342, 60603977 (GTV/SPIDER 2.0 T.SPARK, 1.8 16V, 2.0JTS) Outer Diameter: 148.5 mm Inner Diameter: 103 mm Height: 255 mm Not the first time that cross references are incorrect.

If I remember correctly so is the filter for TS 256mm in hight and the filter for 3.0L 283 mm in hight.
-
You are using the correct filter? if I remember correctly, 3.0L has the same shape of the filter but the filter is a bit longer.

What is it the Yanks says......nothing like cubic inches.

If you read between the lines on the last post from duden it seems that the next project is a lorry .....so +1 for weird cars department.

No hybrid turbo, think about a vgt turbo instead but still not a vgt turbo but a similar principle..... maybe confusing he he.

hard to digest

Not for the moment, I am going a little in the opposite direction a different turbo to see how far I can get with oem ECU, the turbo is capable of flowing good air for 500Hp+ so it will be a little head room for the ~300 I'm looking for. But I cannot say anything until after next summer when I have had a chance to test if my thinking holds tight. If I can not arrange the fuel supply satisfactory with oe ECU then I have to decide whether I should use supplemental fuel supply or go for a aftermarket ECU but it is a latter problem .
-
Sorry to say that you will probably have problem with choke and heat on the exhaust side of the turbo and not so good air from the compressor (hot air) with the oe turbo and maybe you risk to over spin the turbo (not good) in your searching for more power with a stand alone ECU. With the use of bigger turbo pay attention to the size of exhaust housing so that you do not get to much turbo lag.
