Nice clean car.

Plans:
- Instrument panel from Stilo Abarth 2.4

If you are going to fit the Abarth multi colour instrument panel to a diesel, you will not have the glow plug and low oil pressure warning lights.

On the Abarth engine, signals from the oil pressure and temperature sensors are sent to the engine management ECU, then via CAN to the instrument panel. On the JTD engine, the signal from the oil pressure switch goes directly to the instrument panel. I tried rewiring the oil pressure switch on my JTD directly to the Abarth instrument panel, but it still doesn't work. Proxy Alignment says "wrong component" for the instrument panel.

Let me know if you find a way to make it work, I've been trying for a few weeks without success.

Why the difference between the petrol and diesel?

Nice car, btw.

Very impressive

Nice ride. Just needs a hatch window spoiler to finish off the rear end IMO...

great work.
one suggestion if you are mapping again try to take out that torque spike just after 2000rpm, that is most probably making the clutch slip and dmf judder worse.smooth gradient from 1800-2400rpm clutch would thank you and youll probably not see big change on the road?
why the 185hp and 380nm ?
another 10-15nm at 4500rpm and you'd have 185hp(291nm)
if your looking for headline figures you may have gone too small with this turbo?
think about water/methanol injection(could give 10-15hp and 20-30nm)especially if your near your max fuel IQ limit
if its fast and drives nice id forget chasing figures.

heres a link to a nice stilo jtd8v gone quite far hp wise also see hes got 4pot brembos

Yes i know that, but tbh it's not a problem for me

The engine doesn't take even a mililiter of oil between exchange intervals (10 000km) and I never look at glow plugs light as I always wait few seconds before I start the engine. But... since I changed the instrument panel leds to white and blue I'm thinking seriously not to doing it. Now the panel looks completly different, modern and really cool!

Yup! You're right!

I forgot to write it on my list! It's definitely a must have mod!

I hope that after i change the clutch and dual mass wheel, dyno chart will looks a bit different. I choose the 1749vb because this is my daily car and I wanted a setup which will be completly safe and won't kill the injectors or engine next day.

I really don't want to fight for every bhp. I know that there's an option to do a 200bhp rocket from 8v JTD on big turbo but in my project 1749vb is an compromise between stock 1749va on chip which can give ~150bhp and big turbos from 2.4JTD engines which can give you more power but with huge lag on the bottom and need fuel limiters pushed to the max which kills injectors after every 60k km as happened in this well known polish project http://www.dynosoft.pl/projekty/27-stilo-jtd-8v-200km.html
The whole engine modifications in my car was consulted and made by Martin from Cinsoft.pl It's a italian cars tuning guru in Poland so I think he knows what he's doing

I wrote 185hp(380nm) because I think it's realistic to achieve.

Maybe someone from you guys have experience with modded 8v JTD and know what clutch and dual mass fits the original stilo 8v getrag gear? I'm looking for something better than OEM set for my car (which also wan't ruin my wallet). I heard that clutch from 2.8 JTD Fiat Ducato will fit. Is that true? Or maybe it makes no sense for power i want ~185bhp/380nm?
