Thanks for sharing all the mods!
Thank you!!
alfa romeo’s are seriously underrated and the under dogs of the car scene i don’t care what anyone else has to say
Agreed bro!
Yup. And they are very affordable. Looking to get a TI Sport right before thanksgiving

My big turbo upgrade comes in next week I can’t wait! Keep up the good work man and stay positive! Much love!
Wooooooooow I’m excited for you please keep me updated!
Thanks man much love! Happy Holidays!
any updates? how many hp have you managed to squeeze?
How’s the big turbo?
Awesome review, thank's for taking the time to do this one and the others. Agree 1000% with every single comment. I finally purchased, should have done it years ago, loved this car as soon as I saw it back in 17'. Again appreciate your time as these videos are priceless for new owners. At first I was like I don't have to do anything to this car, but after this video..... haaa. Building this car up and getting the fuel economy on the other side is a huge deal.... really enjoyed the insight on the environment there with Porsche's and M3 everywhere. Makes this car shine even brighter. See you soon.
Absolutely man! Glad you joined the club!!
There's cars that are more reliable and popular than Alfas, but I really can't think of a better looking or sounding car ever.
Recently got a 2018 Ti Sport in Missano Blue and I'm in love with the car! Just needs a stronger exhaust note (thinking Competizione). Thank you for the videos and information where you acquired your mods, they are definitely going to come in clutch when deciding on a build path.
Couldn't agree more!
You're a lucky man. I'd get the same team f I couldn't afford the real thing. 🍀
But as of now I can't afford either.
Carbon update - hi all, bought the first round of the smaller accent pieces. Only 3,500 more to go haaaaa... keep it going Giulia nation 🏁
Lmao exactly
Glad to see it going strong at 80k. Would love to see a video on routine maintenance that you have done. I would like to follow the same schedule. Keep up the great videos!
Thanks brother! Will do!
Me 2
Same!
@@club.alfagtdid you ever make one?
My Gulia veloce over 220k km
32:10 That's why I bought a 2022 Alfa Romeo Giulia Q4 Veloce!
Yeah she's beautiful and the driving characteristics are awesome compared to the competitors, but the main reason was because of the UNIQUENESS!
I also live in Germany and I can't see these Beamers, Mercs, Audis etc. anymore! And I say that as a German! Nobody here turns their heads to these cars because they're just plain boring to look at. Even the M's, AMG's, RS Audis! You got so much more attention with a Giulia! People look puzzled, they chatter at me, they take photos etc. Always funny! 🤣
Yesterday I had a Jaguar XE behind me at the traffic lights. The driver pulled out his smart phone and took pictures of my Giulia. Then he drove by and gave a thumbs up. These are the moments that show you've bought the right car!
Your Alfa Romeo just looks great! I have mine in Misano Blue.👌
Cheers and have fun with this car. 👋
Everything you’ve said is perfectly correct and priceless! Cheers my friend!
What part of Germany?
Enjoy your Alfa!!
@@club.alfagt Düsseldorf (North Rhine-Westphalia) ✌🏻
You actually dont have a cold/open air intake? That surprises me, next to the spoiler thats also usually the first mod Alfa fans do 😂 haha great video tho!
Yeh the stock intakes on these cars are pretty much good enough as is tbh lol
Great video! I just picked up my ‘17 Giulia Ti and I can’t decide what to do first. But the throttle lag is definitely a problem I’ll have to address soon.
1 go pedal
2 Squadra tune
3 italian exhaust
4. Wheels/tires/suspension
Solid video brotha 🔥🔥
Don’t lie to me bro I shot this with a Nokia and a tape recorder
@@club.alfagt shoooot I still shoot I my iPhone 😂
@@ModdedMotors if youtube knew how ghetto my setup was id be cancelled hahahaha
@@club.alfagt 😂 lol you can never be cancelled
She’s beautiful 😍😍
Thank you!
Put those badges back on ! They looked great
I know!!! They did lol
So glad I found your channel and you did this video. Hope you don't mind but I will be copying your build a lot on our 22 Veloce. The outside appearance stuff, tune and exhaust I want to copy. I won't do the interior stuff or change my suspension but love everything else and wish I could order them all today. Also super jealous you've been COTA. Went down there a couple weeks ago for the first time to look at it.
Since you’re in Texas swing by madness Autoworks in Austin!!! You have to!
@@club.alfagt yeah I'm just about to look them up
Outstanding video. I was taking notes throughout. Keep them coming!
Thank you! I will!
Haaa, right,.I did.. you should ask alfa to spot you a quad, for promo opps. I think it would catapult sales IMO... haaa
really found the madness go pedal to be a good heads up as a mod to get as on of the first. Didn't think of it until this video
It’s amazing yo
Just bought the 2020 q4 is there any problems when lowering it? The stock wheel gap is hideous and your car looks beautiful
Thanks man! And nope no issues besides buy some rear camber and toe arms to correct rear suspension from looking stupid with a drop
🤌🏾🤌🏾top notch carbon details!
Thank you!!
Great video, thx for sharing. PS funny I just moved out of Germany😉
Thanks man! Back to the states?
what about a subaru wrx competitor? For where i live it's the same price, i think i'm going for the alfa still
Alfa >>>>>> Subaru
Love the content! Keep it coming!
Thanks you!!!
very nice ,very tastefully done
Thank you!
Can i ask something why you have the race selection?
Makes the car very very fun to drive!
I could be mistaken, but it looks like your front rotors are on the wrong side.
That tape is crazy invisible..😮😅
Lol yuuuup!
WOW OMG Beautiful Car Alfa Romeo Giulia 🚘😎👑🙏🔝
Thank you!!!
Hattest du bei den Agency Autoworks Teilen Probleme mit der Eintragung?
Beautiful car, I have to ask how the Q4 system feels is it RWD oriented?
Yep it’s 100% rwd until it needs awd
Great, I was afraid that it is some shitty fwd system.@@club.alfagt
Very nice 💚🤍❤️ Alfa Romeo Giulia 👍
Thank you!
I enjoy your videos man! Nice work. Question for you. At 3:49 of this video it looks to be that you have 2 black tap screws or something in the passenger side of your bumper by the headlight. Did you happen to break the clips off in that area? I JUST recently did this on my 2019 Q4 Sport and don't want to wait for the liable party to cough up 3100. Wasn't sure if this was the case or not. If so, is it a good fix?
Yep!!! Good eye! I have since painted them red with the touch up pen from the factory and now they’re hardly noticeable
@@club.alfagt Can I ask what type of screw you used to fix that?
@@pick1888 it was a generic self tapping screw from the hardware store man
Can you inform me with details on how and where can i tune my car and unlock the race mode in it , thanks
Nice video ! Is the spacers 15mm front and back ?
Yes they are!
What kind of downpipe and exhaust system can I use in order to still pass emissions test?
Quick question from Montreal Quebec! Your spacers from Athena 15 mm is it for front and rear? Thx and great videos btw… I’ve seen them all. Prepping my newly purchased Alfa !
Hello friend! Yess front and rear!!
What wheel size are those just got a 2020 Ti Q4 and it has 18s hate them need 19s or 20s ?
Beautiful car and good review. Good info on the GoPedal - I was just reading about it and have something similar on my current car
Thanks bro! Awesome!
I wanna twin turbo a 2.0 can it be done? I want a Giulia with 420hp
No. Cam and turbo will get you there
Love your setup! Especially the front splitter cause any other one looks ugly for me while this one is like OEM. Thinking on getting spacers, what would you say about it? Is it worth it without KWs?
Yeh man spacers are worth it car handles well and kws are peak man. If you don’t do suspension spacers are still a good investment for looks
@@club.alfagt you've did 15mm all around? Athenas recommend only 5mm in front for Q4 because it can rub plastic on full lock
@@parsiukurojus7961 yep went 15 all around, I have zero rubbing but I’m also not super low
@@club.alfagt What tire setup do you ride? I see it's 245/35 at the back.
@@parsiukurojus7961 yeh bro just 245/35 all around
Very nice spec. Does yours come with blind spot monitoring?
Yes it does
Any reason it has a Germany plate on the front?
Oh SNAP I commented too early lmao
All the mods look fantastic and factory!
Thank you I appreciate it!
What do you use for your DV? OEM? Thanks would a TurboSmart Duel Port be ok with a little vent to atmosphere? Or a Performance Recirculating Valve?
I don’t suggest using anything but oem plenty of people have issues with aftermarket ones
did you have any issues/regrets with getting rid of adaptive suspension for the kw coil overs? i have the race mode upgrade on the 2.0 which i like being able to go from softer to very firm, how much of a downgrade if any is it?
I never had the adaptive dampers! Sorry bro
You put 15mm on all corners spacers
Yessir
thx, what is the TÜV saying about the Katless Exhaust? i think i will try the Paddle mod.
Yes it’s TUV
@@club.alfagt haha nice^^
Only thing with the exterior I'm not a fan of is if you're putting all that carbon fibre on the front, then you gotta get the carbon fibre scudetto for the grille too! As for the inside... how can you get rid of the aluminium paddle shifters that's sacrilege!! 🤮
I have the carbon scudetto. I just had it off at the time it’s back on now. Also, I didn’t get rid of them lol, these are carbon fiber covers over them haha. They are still there
Are you still able to have some 'fun' with sliding the car in race mode? even though it is Q4? Im doing some reasearch bc i wanna buy a giulia. Yours looks amazing
Thanks! I actually uninstalled race mode and I’m back to the regular dna logic, I prefer it more
@@club.alfagt oh, very suprising after seeing your review on race mode. You seemed really impressed and happy with it.
Is the Q4 variant of the giulia still 'challenging' to drive? I've heard that 4wd takes all the fun and challenge out of driving. But on the other hand i hear a lot of positive things about the driving and the handeling of the giulia :)
@@tomvanmulken5290 race mode is awesome. But I didn’t like that the car was stuck in N mode all the time because of it. So I went back and haven’t looked back since
For a track day race mode is better but the majority of time you are not driving on the track
Q4 is the best handling version of the Giulia. Remember, Giulia is 100% rwd until it needs awd. It’s amazing
Fuck bro, you livin' in the PJs?
EDIT: Nah, way worse. Germany.
LMAO. I just needed a spot to film man.
@@club.alfagt
I'm just stirring you up mate, it's a great video.
You can tell a fine man by his fine taste.
Haha thanks brotha
I inspired by your alfa and bought sport ti q2. Want to lower it and put spacers. Thinking to lower it 25mm front and 30 mm back. Spacers maximum 10 or 12 mm each. What you think? Your opininion is way necessary to me
12mm spacers will be perfect
Yes lower it and get and alignment too!
Love your video. One question: do you know if there is anything we can tune in US to make the paddle shifter work like EU cars. i.e. click "+" to shift to D, click "+" and "-" to shift to N?
Yes I’ve done it. Very easy but you need MES software and cables. It’s awesome I call it the Ferrari paddle mod
@@club.alfagt That would be awesome! Will it come alongside with the Squadra tune?
@@Exodus99276 no it doesn’t but it works perfectly with it. It’s just a bit of factory code that takes 30 seconds to activate once you have MES on a laptop and the MES cables
@@club.alfagt One more question: your giulia is 2018 right? Does it need a SGW bypass installed to do so?
@@Exodus99276 yeh 2018 and nope don’t need it
Did u chrome delete wrap the trim or it came factory
Factory comes blacked out in the Ti Sport trims
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
😍🔥😍
May I have the link to the CF tape?
Don’t have that one but literally just search for that on Amazon and it will come up
better put a 200cell in u get huge tickets in germany for noise and no cat
so early its 350 p
🤣🤣🤣
How much hp are you pushing?
320ish
@@club.alfagt would you recommend a performance chip?
@@jamesmoore5531 from squadra absolutely
@@club.alfagt okay thank you, I just ordered a 2019 ti sport and Im going to get it next Saturday.
@@jamesmoore5531 amazing!!! I’m happy for you! Lmk how it goes
It looks fairly zippy.
Definitely is
Be careful, after viewing this video, your carbon buget will explode. .. view at own risk.... haaaaa,
Hahahahaha
Man, this front license plate is so ugly..
It was heartbreaking bro
@@club.alfagtI like it looks better than California one lol
Just out of interest, as you didn’t seem to touch on it. Do you have active dampening on your Alfa? I do and I’m wondering if the coil overs work well with the factory adaptive suspension? Cheers. Great car by the way I love all the modifications. Very well done and tastefully done. I have owned my Alfa Veloce for 1 month now. Let the mods begin. Essentially I’m doing everything you have! 😊😂🎉
Awesome to hear it brother and thank you!!
I do not have active suspension but KW offers a kit for that specifically. As to how it works I’m not sure bro, but I’d email alfa9supply if I were you, Matt is a good guy and a wealth of knowledge
@@club.alfagt awesome that’s great I will do that. Thank you sir and all the best!
Oh man, I just sold my 18 fully loaded Ti Sport Q2 to get a 23 S3 and man does this make me miss it.
So I understand why people choose the VW/Audis especially modern ones with all the cool tech but tech ages and constantly replaces itself whereas the Giulia focuses less on user interface and more on pure driver engagement. This factor is dying in the car industry
@_fast4lfa I agree, loved every minute of driving my Alfa for 5 years and loved the analog instrument panel. The main factor was dropping 3k+ on new tires and a radiator. I also got a good offer and wanted more power. If I could have gotten a 2020 qv for the same price that would have been the easy choice.
Are u living inside the Patch Barracks in Stuttgart ? Was wondering why u have no german accent haha
Thanks for the video. I just bought a bkacked out ti sport in NY with 30k miles. Trying to figure out how to start my mod journey. Absolutely love it. Trying to find a home for my old girl who I've had forever and completely modded.
What was the old car?
@_fast4lfa oh lol. Well, I've had it my whole driving life and actually loved/ love her. It's up at my x's, and I don't really know what to do with it. It's just a 96 accord, but it was truly loved and honestly super known in my town. The green lowered 96 accord w 18s... I actually rebuilt it, and it's sitting across the street from my xs dad's house/garage/shop at my buddies. I play hockey withs house. Approx 100k miles and rebuilt drive shaft seals out w zero miles on all the parts, even sandblasted and sprayed the knuckles lol. We found rust in the rear driver side, and I moved on fron the car and his daughter.... it's got all the honda tuner ish on it. I've tuned it since fast 1, lol. I just took care of it, and now it sits on Rand Hill.... I really don't wanna go back up the hill. Kinda sad actually, but I'm thinking about it.... it's been sitting for prob 4 yrs. It's sat for long times before when it was getting paint/mods or put away for storage so who knows?
I just got the exact same thing, a ti sport with 30k. What did you end up doing to yours?
@cyrustoocool keep your speed down. Lol
I've been washing,coating, detailing the ish outta her. Some carbon. Going for it though! I'm in love! So many compliments gotta stay safe. Typing from the cockpit. Gotta grab gas and cruise!
What would you say is the total price of all the mods you have done so far? As well did you go somewhere to get your parts hydrodipped or did you do it yourself. Other than that, really great video! Just seeing this now since im considering buying it!
All the parts about 6k I would say
No hydro dip all carbon
Is this Color Alfa Romeo Rosso ?
Car looks amazing.
Such a great job of yours. This car is beautiful. I am a third generation Italian original absolute alfista, so I really mean it.
If you ever sell it, I am gonna buy it immediately.
You're saying 40mpg, must be rather under extreme eco driving manner...how about normal city driving with greater amount of traffic lights, what fair numbers can we get?
More like 26
@@club.alfagt Thanks, still looks good. That's indeed quite unreachable level for other race cars like m3...
this is the best alfa 2.0 build
Nice! Does your car have staggered wheels? Did you get wheel spacers for both front and rear or just front? If you got for rear, what size? The front skirt, did you use screws only or screws and 3M tape?
Nope just 19x8 inch wheels all around. Same spacers front and rear 15mm. Used both 3M tape and lots of screws
@@club.alfagt I forgot to ask. Have you had any rubbing on the front now that they stick out a little more?
@@miguela3826 nope zero rub!
I feel like I want some external mods to make my 19 Q4 stand out. Already have tint and a trunk lip spoiler. Where would you go from there?
Side skirts and lower it bro
@@club.alfagt Is dropping 3k on those coilovers worth it? If not what else would you trust?
@@devinmagee1948 if you plan on keeping the car until it’s paid off absolutely
Wouldn’t recommend anything besides the stock suspension unless it’s kw
Are those 15mm spacers all around?
Yup!
Do You happen to know if QV fenders would fit to 2.0 ?
Yes all the body parts bolt right on
@@club.alfagt that could be a nice upgrade too. At least visual-wise, as those vents don't have any function as far as I know. Cheers bro, great car
@@k_s.m absolutely agreed man the fenders are definitely on the list….a very long list lol
Are you running the stock intake?
Yes I am
Does it make better power stock then say a BMS intake?
Reason I ask is because I got the Squadratune and put a BMS Intake on at the same time and my 0-60 time actually got slower. I’m trying to figure out why because if not the intake then the tune is no good at least for me.
@@lendawg333 no difference
I think the best is the eurocompulsion v4
Yes. Because of pressure loss. Oem is best. Open filter is worse just sucks in turbulent hot air
