Must-Have $60 Mod for Alfa Romeo Giulia Enthusiasts

[@CrustyHolyGrail]

The first thing I installed on the q4 was the GFB diverter valve. I only did that from reading threw forms before purchasing the car was the OEM diverter valve is thin/brittle plastic that can break or collapse which will cause major failures. But i can say 4 years into having this car with the same GFB i bought it's still kicking like a champ and highly recommend it.

[@ModdedMotors]

People definitely swear by GFB, mine just threw too many codes unfortunately

[@AldenChappell]

Didn't even get past the 30 second mark before placing my order through your link! Thank you as always for the mod recommendations :)

[@ModdedMotors]

😂 I’ve been saying , worst channel to watch if you’re trying to save money 😂 I’m glad you got it 🙌🏽 I have no affiliation with Madness; just figured I’d send people to where I bought

[@TheToxicmid]

One of the first mods I put on mine and I have loved it ever since. No issues at all...Love the sound. Good video as always bro

[@ModdedMotors]

Appreciate you 🤝 that’s great to hear!

[@randyscadden6590]

I 100% agree with the BOV and intake, the intake for sure over powers it. The BOV still sounds great when you get on it and quickly off it! 😃😁

[@JPuddybuc]

Love you folk! Wife drives a 20' Alfa Rosso Stelvio Lusso, I just wrecked/replaced my 19' Ti with a white Quad and just shipped my daughter's totaled BRZ from Dallas back to CA to hopefully part out.... Apparently there's a commonality among us people who appreciate good driving cars.

[@carloslewis8448]

This is very cool... I will be ordering the combo this week. wow!!! you guys keep me motivated on tuning my GIULIA . There are so many mods thatmI have planned for my car❤

[@ModdedMotors]

lol 😂 we’re the worst channel to watch if you’re trying to save money 🙌🏽 we’ve tried a lot of combos, hopefully people can buy once 💯

[@Renegadescollection]

This is exactly what I need. I can't wait until I get one of my own🔥

[@ModdedMotors]

$60 can’t hate it 🙌🏽

[@DJkhaos808]

I had the Turbosmart bov installed two weeks ago and sounds wonderful! Nice video!

[@ModdedMotors]

Appreciate the feedback! How does your bov sound compare?

[@connormink]

i have the turbo smart dual port BOV on mine for almost a year now - no issues!

[@ModdedMotors]

Lots of be say it’s great! Maybe hard to hear front the video, is your BOV louder or about the same?

[@connormink]

@@ModdedMotorssounds exactly the same to be honest 😂 i made a short install video i posted 9 months ago with sound clips at the end and yeah it sounds pretty much identical

[@ModdedMotors]

@connormink oh nice 😂 I was hoping louder 😅

I recently installed the Weistec F154 VTA Adapter on my 2019 Giulia QV......luv the high pitch sounds....

[@ModdedMotors]

On the QV they sound soooo damn good

[@amosl016]

Hey bro might wanna check your coolant looks low on the engine side

[@Hyper10Tech]

I just took the diverter valve hose off and blocked it off on the intake side but also have the turbosmart bov

[@ModdedMotors]

Hear that works as well

[@zibrava]

Taking the diverter valve off and blocking it doesn’t throw any codes? I had mine like that for a bit and got a CEL… but I also had the GFB on 😂 Removed both because I didn’t want to go into limp mode again

[@ModdedMotors]

There’s a hose you can block off, which works just like a bov. GFB throw is codes if there’s an additional spring. Get the set up I recommended and you’ll have 0 issues 🤌🏻

[@Hyper10Tech]

@@zibrava i blocked it off on the intake side and left the diverter valve with no hose on it to get the woosh noise and i have yet to have a cel

[@zibrava]

@@Hyper10Tech I may have to give it another shot then

[@whespeg]

Sounds great! I have the vent to atmosphere mod right now but want to replace it with something legit

[@ModdedMotors]

Honestly for the price, super solid mod

[@Bucky327]

I just got a 23 Veloce. Will the sila bolt right to the stock, nothing else is needed right? The video on madness also installs the go fast parts. So I’m just making sure I don’t need anything else. Thanks.

[@ModdedMotors]

@@Bucky327 you can add it just by itself, the GFB is just an upgraded diverter valve. That’s not needed to use the SILA part. If you wanted just the SILA you can.

[@memecentral3753]

I recently(ish) purchased a 2018 Q4 with all the options including the performance package. I want to mod it so bad but I’m not sure where to start without hurting the reliability since it’s my daily. Right now it’s bone stock with about 45k miles.

[@ModdedMotors]

Congratulations on the purchase! These cars are pretty reliable, you can start with the basics. I have a video about 5 best mods to start with. Definitely recommend an exhaust to start.

[@jflscenic]

Mate, full support, I have JTDPERFORMANCE turbo 370..... OMG, you will be blown away!!!! Maybe I order this adapter now. Cheeeeers

[@ModdedMotors]

Heard nothing but good things about JTD 🙌🏽 can’t wait to have a little more boost

[@jflscenic]

@@ModdedMotors u will adore it, especially if you (and I know u do), go with maestro Stephen from Squadra/@lfisimo it will be sick as f..... I am driving 2 weeks now, blown completely by the car's performance.... Is way more than I expected. I hope u do gearbox map as well....

[@jflscenic]

​@@ModdedMotors you will adore it!!! Hope you will do gearbox tune as well.... Stephen/Squadra did it for me, that mrStephen.... Proper maestro, artist that finalised our 2.0s

[@robertgonzalez3548]

Thanks for the vid, brother and now I'm subscribed. I just have one question. I have a 2018 Sport Ti and I purchased an aftermarket Mopar warranty (just in case because there were certainly some reliability issues with these cars at first). Will this mod affect my warranty? Thanks in advance.

[@ModdedMotors]

They can only deny warranty claim if the modification caused the damage, which a bov can’t do. The most they’ll ask is to go back to stock

[@robertgonzalez3548]

@@ModdedMotors Thanks brother. Loving your content. I think I MAY have ended up with a headlight that you ordered in Scottsdale a couple of years ago............😳 I mentioned the video that you made about a coolant connector that was fixed at the Scottsdale location. When I got the headlight (true emergency situation) the service manager mentioned that I may have gotten your headlight (ordering was weeks out).

[@Dr.reese_UBR3]

Just picked up both up but I’m not getting that woooosh sound as much as yours, could it be mine has a fault? It isn’t throwing codes

[@ModdedMotors]

There’s two sound you’ll hear, it’s the whoosh and tshhh, the whoosh is my intake. The minor tshhh is the Sila

[@ryanmacdougall7850]

Is this better sounding than an intake?

[@grxve___]

Cant wait to see you install the hybrid turbo+ tune

[@ModdedMotors]

Super excited for it 🙌🏽

[@lendawg333]

Would you consider running the E85 tune from Ideal Race? I really want that tune but I’m kind of on the fence about it since there’s not much info out about it.

[@Gootsi]

Hi. I saw your videos and I love it. I have 2020 ford mustang ecoboost its pretty fast . But i think about quadrifoglio 2.9 twin turbo. I also read so many bad about reliability. Does alfa brake down easily? Would you recommend to buy quadrifoglio? I think also about reliability. Thanks

[@ModdedMotors]

Ooo personally these cars are pretty reliable, can’t speak on the QV because I don’t own one. Anything 2020+ is a safer bet. Understand there’s a huge price gap in maintenance on the 2.0 vs QV. If you have the budget definitely pick up the QV, just be prepared for maintenance cost. You do get a lot of car for a very reasonable price.

[@joshuadlv15]

Finally a mod I can afford 😭

[@ModdedMotors]

Keeping it simple 😂😅

[@phorenzic_]

I think Ricky is going to need to learn some new PG "sentence enhancers" for videos moving forward🤣 Great vid!

[@ModdedMotors]

Lmfao 🤣 doing my best! Appreciate you 🙌🏽

[@izzyiz810]

Did you feel any power loss or turbo lag blowing out into the atmosphere?

[@ModdedMotors]

0 loss of power, the recirculating air doesn’t add to the performance enhancement. So dumping to atmosphere isn’t an issue, and pretty common on most boosted cars.

[@izzyiz810]

@ModdedMotors kool. I asked because you said it's the only brand that won't throw a CEL thus far. So I thought dumping into the atmosphere might effect fuel-air ratio. Appreciate the feedback bruh

[@ModdedMotors]

@izzyiz810 GFB throws the check engine if you don’t take out an additional spring, it works pretty well I just wasn’t a fan. Turbo smart was a hit or miss, didn’t see it negatively effecting power I think the way the valve snaps back is what causes the issue or the way it’s attempting to dump the air. I’m assuming the recirculating valve works because it’s a fully built unit, takes out modding it annoyance. The bov sila plate is super simple, it’s dumping the extra air to atmosphere. So it’s more expensive but in theory a simpler set up. As others said you can actually just cap off a few pieces instead of using this bov plate but figured $60 mods works as well. Just comes down to preference really.

[@izzyiz810]

@@ModdedMotors I bought the bonalume (Bone-a-Lume-A) lol off your word exactly a year ago. I lost a lot of lag that existed from the stock diverter valve. Holds boost much better now. It's the best mod I've done so far. Thanks!

[@Xk1221]

Could you name me a short list of some mods to make some extra HP? Im tryna get my giulia quicker

[@CrustyHolyGrail]

Hey man the best quick mods to wake your car up is a intake and catback exhuast. Just do your research when it comes to intakes to see what you personally would like. I went with eurocompulsons intake and i've replaced the cone a year some change

[@ModdedMotors]

Best option for extra power is a tune, but as other have said exhaust is also beneficial.

[@Dr.reese_UBR3]

Can you do this with stock and still get the same sound?

[@ModdedMotors]

Absolutely!

Hey question I so far have v2 cold air intake and competizone eco exhaust on my giulia, I’m thinking of getting it tuned next but I’m thinking of getting race mode first? For yours did it deactivate traction control hence it can be annoying when it slows down, trying to make a turn and burn out.

[@ModdedMotors]

Yes race mode deactivates traction

@@ModdedMotors thank you appreciate you answering. Also would you say activating it was easy? I feel like doing it but lowkey scared lol

@@ModdedMotors also I seen on the tune from altissimo it turns in a check engine light do you know much of that issue?

If you want an easier way to turn off traction you can get a Squadra logger. And I haven’t thrown any codes with Squadra
