New Daily Driver has arrived....2013 FIAT Abarth

Econ

ZCarMan - That's quite a collection you have there.

I am considering purchasing the Magnetti Marelli ECM chip for the car. Stock dyno shows 155 at the wheels, the ecm brought it to 201 at the wheels. almost a 50hp jump, and the product is made by FIAT

$800 though.

Make sure you get on the FIAT forums. There are tons of folks who have had good experiences with the MM tuning box. 201 at the wheels is more than enough for an Abarth to make it fly. I tried another tuning box and wound up returning it and it remains stock.

FYI, a problem that some folks had last year when the Abarth came out was with the clamps on the intercooler hoses not being secured enough and losing boost as a result. The FIAT forums have all kinds of good info though on that stuff. Congrats and Enjoy! Also, if you get the SRT driving experience make sure you do it. Its worth it. The SRT folks put on a good event and you get to record it all and take it home at the end. Its isn't hard core track stuff, very easy (multiple events like autocross, drag, etc.) to accommodate the non-track types. Still we enjoyed the event and my Wife can now say she tracked an Abarth and drove with the SRT folks!
