Turbo kit on new twin-spark

[jonesy@domain.elided]

Ciao Alfisti,
I just read an online magazine article regarding the Beninca motors
turbo kit (AU$9000) which can be fitted to the new twin-spark Alfas -
156/GTV/Spider.

It said that they use a low boost turbo (7PSI), leaving the internals
as they are (10:1 compression). This increases power (from the
standard 114kW) by 30%, allowing the reviewed GTV to go from
0 to 100 km/hr in 6.9 seconds. Standing quarter mile time was
completed in around 15 secs.

The interesting point in this article to me, was that torque-steer
became an issue after the kit was fitted. Shame they don't sell
RWD or AWD versions.
