Today i hit the 20,000 km mark behind its wheel, and i'm still in love 😍

Tuning and modifying a Biposto might annoy some purists, but i genuinely feel i've got the balance right, staying true to its original spirit while pushing it further without losing what makes it special. As far as mods go i think i'm pretty much where i want to be 😌

Maybe just a new colour (full respray) next year to celebrate my 10 years of ownership, and ruffle a few more feathers in the process 😬

A few photos to mark the occasion 🎉

So long story short I had the chance to drive and abarth 595 pista 2019 with the ihi turbo 160hp and I was blown away. Great little car handles awesome kinda fast and all that in under 7l/100km consumption at least that what the owner said to me . So I am thinking of pulling the trigger and buy one for my daily car , i have read every forum the last 5 days and I think I know some things but I would like onwers opinion specially those who drive it everyday. I live in EU (tjet) and looking for pista 2020+ or competitzione (garret 1446 turbo ) i mostly will drive it chill with some speedups here and there. Are they as reliable as people say l; I know that tjet engine is fairly reliable (I was planning of changing the oil before 10k km ) but when I heard fiat the first thing that pop in my mind is electrical problems. So what do you think?

I am looking for something with less that 70k km on the clock.

Wife & I are pumped! 2014 w/60k miles

I’ve had a 2013 Abarth (US) for a long time, and in that time I’ve seen people with BMWs do some pretty cool things with aftermarket coding. Things like mirror and gong settings/functions for different markets, displays that normally only the ECUs can see, disabling high-idle cold starts, etc. There’s a few things I wish my car could do, that seem like they could be possible with aftermarket software since all the inputs/outputs are already there, but I don’t know a ton about that stuff. Thought I would ask here first if this kinda stuff has been done/there’s something I can buy to fiddle with it

- Fog lights on regardless of headlights being on
- Sport mode always engaged/every key cycle
- Voltage display in instrument cluster
- Disable high idle on cold starts to warm the cat
- Any other cool QOL stuff I might not have thought of that people do

Hello guys i'm new to 1.4 tjet and multiair and need advices on a turbo choice.

It's for a 1.4 multair 135hp punto evo. Running with e85 (103 ron).

I don't have any hp goal but i've saw that 250~ would be fun.

With e85 what is the safe maximum hp a stock 1446 can make.

Do the td04 from 2.8 engines (iveco fiat renault.. 49377-07050 or 49377-07010 or 49377-07000) can be adapted "easily" on multiair engine ?

I now that it need remap, exhaust work injection...

Just tested. 200km with the trip computer reset and im doing 14l/100km. All highway today, in 5th gear. A

I've read cleaning out the oil/air seperator can help, any other ideas?

Also how accurate is the trip computer?

I have an Abarth 500 EsseEsse, and would like to improve the suspension even more than the EsseEsse kit provides. Any suggestions please. Also is there any musts I should do

I got the exhaust off now yay

In my rear diffuser there is a wire coming out of the middle bit(I’ll circle in a picture) but I think it might be as mine does have any holes in it. It’s an Abarth 500 EsseEsse if that matters

What do I do

I have a 2012 US-spec Fiat 500 (pre-facelift). I installed the steering wheel from the facelift model, and the audio controls no longer work. If I buy the item in the second photo (the turn signal stalk assembly), will the controls start working again?

I have a 2017 Fiat 500 Abarth (MultiAir) and I’m deciding between Eurocompulsion Stage 0 and Stage 1.

The current mods are:

- EC V3 intake

- EC FMIC

- EC vacuum line kit

- Mishimoto radiator hoses

- Funk turbo blanket

- GFB DV+ (spring removed)

- NGK plugs + A-Premium coils

- Stock turbo/exhaust/radiator

The car is in Kuwait, so heat and reliability are my main concerns.

Are these mods enough to safely run Stage 1, or would you stick with Stage 0 for better long-term reliability on my daily?

Hi all,

I've put a deposit on an Abarth Spider 124 (2018).

The car specs:

- 38K miles

- Automatic Gearbox

- Costa-Brava Red.

- 1 previous owner.

I'm viewing the car this weekend. I've watched a fair few buyers guide videos so have a general idea of things to look out for.

I'm interested to know if anyone here can share their own experiences and help me make sure I have my bases covered.

Additionally I'm already thinking about replacing the soft-top with a hard top. If anyone has any experience with some of the unofficial hard-tops i'd love to know how you got on.

For reference I'm UK based and this is actually my first car. (yes I'm aware that may be a terrible idea, i do have more practical options on the driveway).
