 Hi, sorry for the delay.   Thank you, it's an honor to be compared to them. But honestly I think it's still a few steps below. One reason is the wheels. Unfortunately I can't mount wheels larger than 17". In Italy is the maximum allowed on 916, and spacers are also illegal. With 18" or 19" it would be much more beautiful. Although I think that, for road handling 17" is the best choice.
The rear spoiler I do not like very much, without thinking it's more elegant. But it is possible that in the future I will change my mind. : D
p.s. your black is awesome.

 

Still about the wheels, looking at the photos, is it better for you with the GTA or with these phase3 ones?   I have some doubt about it, I think it's a bit  better with the Gta, they looks a bit  more bigger and more "Alfa".   Although the phase3 are very beautiful and as you said they do a lot  Ferrari style.

 

 

The next step will be decat + ecu mapping. It will be done by a professional in my area who works with dyno. I was thinking of raising the turbo pressure to 1.0/1.1 bar steady and 1.3 in overboost, so to have on 225 / 230 hp and 320Nm.  With these values and pressures it should remain reliable, the engine has about 68,000km.

 

I add some photos of the refurbishment.

 

Thank yuoi alexx230.
