Tuning Abarth turbo

Today my Abarth turbo arrived at work(I work at Abarth Preperatore).
In the middle of october i will be fitting it to my T-jet.I already have installed a Abarth SS air filter with Abarth SS pipe.
Next week i am installing a Ragazonne rear demper with a straight pipe.
When its fitted i go to remap the ECU.
What should i be expecting?

I fitted a original BMC SS air filter into the air filter box and fitted a SS 'sucksion' pipe.This pipe goes under the headlight and suck cold air there.
 
This ss pipe is standard on the linea.. I don't get where it gets the air from or a benefit from moving it... Standar looks a good design to me
 
The SS kit pipe gets air from underneath the headlamp.The original pipe gets air above the radiator.
 
Ok then,I fitted the Turbo and a Ragazonne exhaust off the cat.
Wednesday I get a remap.So now i know i can expected 160-180hp.
But what can i expect in driving.I mean more than 40hp will make a hell of a difference,a lot of torque.

I'm guessing a bit more understeer when accelerating hard out of a corner.
Stickier tyres might be next. Just exersize a little care as you explore the cars (or your) limits

I've Bridgestone on mine and am not that impressed.
 
fitted the Abarth turbo, exhaust and GSR kit on the missus car 18 months ago. With map it runs 163 bhp and 230 lb/ft but on the original boost sensors we found it cannot go over 1 bar of boost. it goes into a limp home mode if it senses over that. I now have the sensors of the SS and am just waiting to get it to Red Dot. The turbo is a piec of cake to fit if you split it. its only the internals which make it produce the boost for longer. Definitely get shot of the sporting exhaust though as the box on the Abarth is about 3 feet shorter :eek:
