Hi guys,
Does the turbo on the EsseEsse differ from the one on the basic Abarth 155hp?

No, the standard abarth uses the IHI VL36 whereas the esseesse uses a larger garrett unit.
They arent a straight swap either, quite a bit of piping is different also

Esseesse uses Garrett GT1446

So it is going to require a bit of homework to replace/fit the standard T-Jet 120's turbo with the EsseEsse's one?

Yes, the oil and coolant feeds are different and the esseesse has different injectors and boost sensors.
Unless you can get hold of a full esseesse kit id say its not really worth the hassle unless you are going for big power.
A VL36 with an uprated intercooler, induction and a remap will see you at esseesse power

Was thinking of trying for 200.
But maybe just VL36 with Forge IC, remap and Abarth injectors should do the trick
Already have a decat & Forge induction
Thank you for your time mate
