Torque Junkie
Why on earth an Alfa 155?
Well, it came up, looked at me, I looked at her and that was it.
Actually, it is quite a good platform to work with. And they are cheap to buy right now.
Performance comes from a widespread torque per ton on the wheels.
Some people might confuse power with performance. For my understanding performance is made of 2 things (leaving the braking out), which is acceleration and handling.
In my books he way to improve this the cheapest is by taking out weight. As power and torque are in a direct relation I take the liberty to express the progress in power figures.
The power to weight ratio of the 155 2.0 with driver on the wheel is 84bhp/ton (92 according to the official power figures).
My first target was to attack the boot.
Looking at the boot when I opened it - hmm, seems that the spare wheel is the only thing that has got some weight.
