Needs more rust

Nah, looks great! as it happens I have an auto italia mag on my desk with an article on tracking the diesel 156s and the monza sport chip

[silverback mike]

Tell me more chris.....

[wombat rick]

Mine's red too!!

Treat yourself to some white side repeaters off a big nose 156. Makes a difference!

[silverback mike]

[wombat rick]

Yes. I got some OEM ones like this:

Try Angel tuning at www.angeltuning.co.uk/ for all your chip tuning needs from an Alfa enthusiast!! Nige drives a JTD too which is something of a beast!!

[dougal]

So am I right in saying that if I get my 150bhp 2.4JTD chipped/new brakes fitted from Angel it's £555!!!

Not bad if you just happen to need new brakes!

By the way, nice car.

It's the longest that we have ever kept a (everyday) car, other than the Griff, can't find anything that we would rather have without spending a fortune and even then it probably won't look as good.

I've been hearing lots of good reports about Angel Tuning, but I like my warranty too much

Some extra oomph would be good though.....hmm..

Glad you're happy Mike. Becky has finally stopped crying and just talks of you as a baby snatcher ;-)Did debate chipping it (the Alfa not the wife!)and its worth taking to No Dosh on www.honestjohn.co.uk as his is IDENTICAL spec same age etc except his is Silver. He chipped his and was a very happy bunny. I think the chip took his from 140-185BHP, made it more economical and hugely increased the punch 30-50 & 50-70....
The only thing to think about is the gearbox, some people have found them weak although as that ones done 104K miles probably thats a goodie.
Will post piccies of Porker as soon as I can work out how!

[silverback mike]

Not sure I will chip it yet Jim, will see how it goes I think. Now we are back with a car I am likely to keep for longer than 10 minutes most of my spare change is going towards an older 911. May take a couple of years though...Depends what the 944 is worth I think.

Glad becky has stopped grieving, get her sideways in the 944, she will soon start smiling again!!

Mind you, wonder if I could chip my wife, would it make her go faster?...

Only one way to find out..

[whitney44]

I put chips in my wife and it really slowed her down..............
