I love my 2021!!! More Americans need to get into them!!! They see the HP numbers and overlook them, but this is the best car I have ever had and the steering is way better than any dodge or chevy!!!
Do you still love it? After losing my scat pack to bum ass thieves I’m picking my 2018 ti up today. Besides the cold air and an exhaust upgrade I’m thinking of getting the tune/turbo upgrade from alfissimo Or euro compulsion. Have you done any mods?
@Rick_James I had to get rid of it. It was base model and wanted more. I loved it, though!!! My wife has a Stelvio Veloce 2022 still!!! We love Alfa and no I didn't mod it.
Well, the 2.0 in the Giulia's are (or were) all identical. It was just the map that made the 280bhp for the Veloce. I believe they made changes to the engine to ensure people didn't just buy a standard car and then have it mapped.
The "normal" Giulia and the Veloce share the same 2.0 Turbo Engine. You can get the same Power from it. If you don't need the Veloce Sport Package, you can buy the "normal" Giulia. It is that simple ;)
Honestly, on track, this straight 4 sounds better to my ears than the V6 in the QV. It has a rev-happy spirit to it, like the old twinsparks, while the V6 is rather rough and shouty.
Marco...you need to have a word with Romeo Ferraris about their alloy wheel choice, these are awful and the set they had on the tuned QV were also terrible. It really ruins the look of the car. Fab work on the tune though
Ive taken my 200bhp above 130mph and the back end gets very light! If you boost the power at least get the boot spoiler to give downforce! Theres a good reason the veloce has a rear boot spoiler and lower diffuser!
You are a fine stand up young Gentleman. Thank you very much for an excellent presentation in perfect English. Making a piece of your fine Italian design culture accessibel for me. Many a paisano could take an example in you.
I saw another video where the guy dropped the sports control from a Quadrupholio into one of these base models and then he reprogrammed the ECU and all of a sudden he could too a power slide
this is not stage 3 ever, stage 1 for this engine which is just Ecu remap takes it to 310hp and 460nm, it's the same engine as in the 280hp variant. This is maximum stage 1+. otherwise great car, i m looking to buy one.
I been looking at all the mods available for the guilia if and when I decide to buy one I seen 3 or so tunes out maybe there's more also that pedal thing auto madness , euro compultion , JBA so what makes this a stage 3 tune ? I see a stock air box , he says stock exhaust , performance was good but stage 3?
If I'm not mistaken the Madness Autoworks piggypack ECU gets you 320hp....If im hearing correctly thats now considered a stage 3 tune....hmm....Again Im in the US so I have the 280hp Giulia which is alot more easily achievable at least to 320hp....I'm considering doing this soon.
The GTA has Sport Cup 2, not 4s. And one of the reasons was that Pirelli doesn't make the Trofeo R in the size for the GTA. And it's not a big market for only 500 cars. BR Performance gives this car 310-320 stage 1, I don't know what you mean by Stage 3. Has it changed turbo, intercooler, downpipe and so on?
I drove the GTAm last week (video dropping today) and I've been told they've gone for the Michelin as the car was better to drive, Pirelli would've been happy to develop a tire for Alfa Romeo even for "just" cars (they do that for Pagani which makes even less cars, so why not for Alfa?). Romeo Ferraris has developed a full exhaust, as well as increasing the stock turbo make the car reliable. I think a Stage 1 with +300hp is pure fantasy, people just want to buy a number and don't realise you need to make also the car driveable and reliable
It's the same transmission of the Veloce which is the ZF Transmission " 8HP70 ". According to the manufacturer, this transmission has a limit of 700nm. It's been developed first for the BMW 760Li V12, you can bet it's strong!
@@MarchettinoEN Are you sure? Last time I remember reading the specs sheet it stated the 2.0L transmission is 8HP50 which is 500 nm max torque limit. The 8HP70 is equipped in QV models.
Thanks! The car has the stock turbo but increased, 200 cells cats, OPF delete, ECU reflash, new air intake, KW adjustable suspensions and HP brake pads
this is simply a stock giulia with ecu tune. not a stage 3. same intake, same exhaust, same downpipe. stock giulia can already be bought with 280 HP, and the 200 HP is the same engine just with different ecu software. The tuner basically added 40 hp.. lovely car, and more hp is already great, but this is simply not a stage 3.
The exhaust is custom made by Romeo Ferraris and it includes 200cells catalyst and OPF delete, intake is different as well as the turbo (they modified the stock one). There's more than a simple ECU reflash in this car
Alfa is not lighter than base 3 series plus you can buy 330i with 255 hp with equal 0-60 mph but tuning is much better, easier with bmw. 400 hp 330i for $1500 or 2021 bmw 340i inline 6 with 380 hp stock for same price as new 2022-23 Ti and get to 500 hp for not much more than $2k. Tuned 450 hp bmw 340i will beat QV.
LOL only M5 competition is faster than QV. You know, fast is not only 1/4 mile, it's speed in corners as well. Check our Nurburgring times. And that's why Giulia chassis is superior to 3-series. Only thing missing is an engine between i4 and V6 in QV to compete with 340i
@@MarchettinoEN as far as I know the only difference between Base and Veloce is in the exhaust, and it is not major.
