Nice work. You're right about mid range torque. The combination of that, the instant throttle response even at 1500rpm and the way they pull between 6-7k rpm is what makes the vis engine so special. Fiat's best kept secret!

I hear that nothing sounds quite like a VIS! Except possibly a Lamborghini Gallardo!

Treat yourself to a Ragazzon exhaust and I promise you won't regret it. Quality piece of kit with mandrel bends. Geezers who fitted mine said, "Nice exhaust, went straight on, no messing about". I said "Yeah, knew it would".
Balance Motorsport supplied mine, came from Italy and arrived exactly when they said it would. One of my most satisfying purchases.

It's worth unplugging the mass air flow meter to see if you gain any power at the top. If you do you'll need to replace it. Mine was about 30 bhp down until I unplugged it. New one cost me about £90.
