Grande Punto DlightSwitch's Blue T-Jet.

Introduction

Hi all,

After reading these forums for a while and posting the odd silly question here and there, I'm proud to say I finally own a T-Jet :D:D



Standard for now but I do have plans for it:

Looks

  • Tinted tail lights
  • Tinted/Abarth headlights
  • Black Mirrors
  • Black Alloys
Handling

  • Coilovers (Either JOM or FK AK)

Performance

  • Forge Induction
  • Forge Intercooler
  • Abarth Turbo
  • Some sort of custom exhaust

I'm open to suggestions though, if any of you have any ideas on what else/different to do to my car then feel free to let me know :)

Thanks for looking!

Love that exhaust, sorry I'm refering back to page 3 but i've only just stumbled accross your thread - and wow!!

Sounds and looks awesome, is the sound cause of the exhaust or what!? And what Coilovers you got mate, how much is it dropped?

Sound it a mix of the exhaust and the gsr intake, exhaust is 2.5 inch cat back with only a single centre box and 4" exit. Must be louder now David has a de-cat like me (y) and iirc its on eibach sportlines not coilovers

Cheers for the fast reply mate, and thanks for the info (y)

I'm pretty new to all these cars as I'm having my mum's GP so I'm just learning atm :p but yeah, your car looks mint too :slayer:

He pretty much hit the nail on the head! I wish it was on coilovers, it is just on sportlines, bit high at the back!

Yeah I should get a new exhaust video up of how it sounds now, perhaps sometime next week!

You know all my measurements :eek:

Yeah when you get the FMIC on you'll have everything I have except you have your modded BOV. Will be interesting to see what the difference is! My map is getting tweaked next week as well ;)

BTW: Your Santa pod T-Jet race video don't work anymore :(

Yeah I had a rebrand of my YouTube channel so I deleted it, sorry!
 
Update!

Finally managed to sort out all my ICE! It's taken me a while due to my non-existant knowledge of amps/subs/headunits but it was a good learning process and thanks to a lot of help from people on here I'm quite proud of what I've achieved. :)

All the wires run under the false floor so they're all hidden.

I also recently bought some Abarth 500 seats off Matt Boulton (for those of you who remember him). However I'm not too keen on them so I decided to take them back out. I'll be selling them soon.

I know the passenger one is wonky in this pic, I started to take it out then realised I should take some pictures :p

I did use the opportunity with the seats out to give the car a good hoovering, and I even found 10p! :D

Just fitted my custom fiat badge on the boot. Not sure everyone will like the colour scheme, but you'll see tomorrow when I take a pic in the daylight :)

What are you doing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Leave those fronts in there ace and look the mutts nuts

I'm honestly not too keen on them, the fitting is a bit of a pain as well.

david whenyou txt me to day i though you just had pictures of your car in the snow.

wow it hasnt half changed since i came up to do your boost gaug it looks amazing with the seams you never told me about them you sligh dog ;) hahah

Haha sorry, my fault for saying 'ice'. Yep it's come along quite nicely since then, pretty much finished now since I think I'll be selling it come summertime. If I was keeping it I'd probably get it dropped on coilovers and do my headlining in faux suede.
