I'm coming to the end of my turbo conversion of my Stilo Abarth and all major alterations have been completed, I was thinking it would be pretty easy, but for a novice, it was a big learning curve.
Some might say why bother! It has been said just stick the 2.0L 20V Turbo lump in the Stilo! Which I could, but that's not what I wanted to do, I wanted a Fiat Stilo 2.4L 20V Turbo Abarth, which is how I think it should have come out of the factory??
I wanted to keep this a completely OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), so it's taken some effort with cross referencing part-numbers between the Coupe 2.0L 20v Turbo and the Stlio.
I need help now, I notice that the 2.4 Stlio shares the same injectors as the normally aspirated coupe 2.0 20v and the 20v turbo's are different. Should I then fit the 20v Turbo injectors?
Another problem is the waste-gate electronic control solenoid as fitted as standard on the Coupe Turbo, it connects to the injector circuit unit, which I can't! so can I disregard this solenoid and fit a dump valve? If so, are there any that don't make a loud noise??
