Alfa Giulia Quadrifoglios Have A MAJOR Boost Issue, Let's Fix It!

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

In this episode, we dig into our Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio and fix one of the most common issues on these cars, boost problems! The factory blow-off valves are made of cheap plastic and are known to start leaking and cause issues with boost and throttle response. We take apart the factory units and install both the GFB DV+ BOV rebuild kit, as well as the Weistec External Blow Off VTA adapter. Let the chuchu and sutututuu commence!
The GFB DV+ Rebuild Kit: shopeurocompulsion.net/produc...

    Yeah I've been pretty surprised with how nicely its been taking the mods. The drivetrain seems pretty robust! A stick would have made this car perfect, but the ZF8HP is a great auto for sure.

  • @pereldh5741

    Open blow-off valve instead of recirculating means you loose boost pressure with every gearchange or throttle liftoff. The original plastic valve actually very rarely breaks too, its good quality

    In an automatic, you only blow off if you lift... if you lift you were losing boost anyway. On a manual you might have a point but who cares because it sounds cool 🤣

    They're still on. No issues and very unobtrusive sounding. They're a good match to the Stelvio QV. Unfortunately I'm relocating to Puerto Rico on the 25th and I voluntarily surrendered the Stelvio to the bank. I'm going to look into getting an RX-8 in Puerto Rico, rotary engines are the thing back home.

    Elyas got it! They only open when the throttle plate is shut and the intake manifold no longer is drawing in boost. These are electronically actuated too, so they open when the ECU wants them too.
