2001 406 v6 induction kit????

Post by v6saloon »

hi guys, i have just bought a 2001 406 v6 saloon (210bhp) and was just wandering if anyone knew where i could get a bmc cda induction kit from for it as all the ones i have found are for the 194bhp model, also does anyone know if the brembos off an alfa romeo gtv v6 are exactly the same as the ones off the 406 v6 coupe, thanks guys.

i dont know about the induction kits but the brembos off the GTV v6 are 4 pot brembos they should fit as the mounting point for all brembos is in the same place you will need to get new discs and pads and possibly new alloys if you dont have a set of 16s already as i have done the same thing to my 1998 V6 and got my calipers from a fiat coupe 20 VT

hope this helps

I'd be cautious about the Brembos, they're saying over on the coupe forums that the fixing holes in some of the Fiat ones are further apart but I'm not sure if this applies to Alfa ones.
