Technical Abarth Essense' on a 1.4 16v/T-Jet Sporting

[manthatkidisscrewed]

It would be far easier to fit it all to a T-jet as it'll already have the forged crank/pistons, lowered compression, turbo manifold/oil feeds/drains/cooling system, etc. Still not cheap though.

Converting a standard 1.4 16v will be much more expensive.

And it won't be covered under the standard warranty as you're modding a vehicle that the kit wasn't specifically designed for.

gotta admit though, it'd be pretty cool!

I'm interested in seeing this abrth replica, more engine wise than looks wise.

True, i'd love to see the engine in that beauty!

A guy over on Stilosport.com is in the process of turning a white T-Jet into an Abarth replica, looks pretty good so far!, also means many of the parts are available in the UK.

got a link?

And it would be awsome...

[activematt]

Did you count them...........or did you just read the thread

 

[DAV1D]

I can only count to six so there may be more

I've noticed:
Abarth Wheels
Abarth Rear Lights
Red Door Mirrors
Abarth Badges
Abarth Decals
Linea Grille

Although the thread does say he has the genuine Abarth Bumber ready to be sprayed!!
