If not, I am sure you will be fine if you add a good water injection system. Don't underestimate the anti-knock protection from water injection. It's FAR more powerful than any intercooler in that regard. I can put up a chart with NACA data to back that up if I need to.

Does anyone have a diagram for this system? I have a hard time picturing it, and don't understand what the bypass accomplishes.

There are some guys that change the optics of the head. See
Alfa Romeo Bulletin Board & Forums

Now you just need a custom casting for the valve cover that mimics the old GTA/m and fits on that head and it will look way cool
I think the link is broken, it doesn't load for me...
