I suppose i can always buy 4.7 GT S in the end :)

Thank you, that answers my question. I was advised that the difference on 4.7 to 4.7 would be negligible, someone was trying to tune Quattroporte 4.7 S to match Quattroporte 4.7 Sport GT S. From 4.2, however to 4.7 that is a completely different scenario... In addition, one needs to install the...

Did they replace the exhaust/back boxes to oval ones, installed an air filter too? Was it 4.2 Granturismo to 4.7 Granturismo?

Do you mean, no difference in sound/speed/torque? So the other car was still sounding different and running faster? Or identical sound? BTW, am not after speed, just trying to replicate the sound of 4.7 Sport GT S. Sorry, what is DMS?

Hey All, long time no speak. So, I have decided to tune engine Ecu, apparently can add as much as 40 HP and even more torque to the engine. Was told to do all necessary testing before, like compression test, leaks etc... Any companies in the UK that would be capable of doing it? Thank you :)

Hey All, so I bought a sports air filter from Ed (A.S. Motorsports), installed last week. It definitely made the sound deeper with more bass (veeery close to 4.7 Sport GT S ). I also had valve control kit from formula dynamics installed. The burps have now become somewhat quieter than before, I...

Too many complications, might be different connections/electrical issues etc, even though the layout of the engine is the same :(

WTF? Is this for the new generation snowflake tree huggers????

Here goes my "engine swapping idea" out the window......

Hi, have you got Jason's contact details please? I am thinking of swapping the engine in my QP 4.2 2009 with 4.7 one, hope he might be able to help.

Will do. I think I might just need to find a quattroporte 4.7 engine instead of Granturizmo/Grancabrio to ensure connections and electricals are the same.

Couldn't agree with you more! Except, I was prepared to do all that, but Ed from A.S. Motorsports brought me down to Earth today, by saying that we might encounter so many electrical gremlins, that it would jeopardise the whole project. To say them am devastated is to say nothing!!!!

That is an attainment far beyond my knowledge :)

It is an Auto. I have bought it :)

Thank you, Chris, i have bought the engine :) Will keep you posted on the developments with installation :)

Thanks, man, wish i could speak dutch :( Looks a decent engine, i just could not figure out whether it was MC Shift or Auto...

Yes, i was going to make an offer for around 3K, as it would need an ECU, which eurospares will have to order from Italy, that is £1000. Other bits would be around £800, so would still come to £4800 if the seller accepts, which i doubt. That engine was sold by the scrape yard for £5K and sat...

I think you are right, will keep looking, the costs are now close to 10K, i can buy one in the UK for this price...

Ok, prob not my engine then :(

Hi All, left cover/crankcase needs to be replaced, is it a big job? I know they trade about £1700 on eurospares for complete units, i guess i would need to replace the whole unit...
