easy tiger..... it all stays pretty standard... I drive a beast of an Alfa all day long so just want a bit of fun with this one..
No point in trying to squeeze an extra 10% out of something like this... I like that it does 0-60 eventually....
The body however is different.... not sure what to do yet but I fancy a cal look.....
keep watching... I'll post pictures as it develops....

Gearbox is next, thats half way out tonight, and will be sorted by monday hopefully.

he he he,i bet you end up lookin for another 10% at some point...thats the fun of it,beast of an alfa or (in my case SP1/blade/3.9 rangy) or not!!.

the handling of both bis and a/c is soo good,another 5-10bhp works very well...and discs brakes.....lowered suspension
