Tuning Magneti Marelli Tuning Box for US Abarth

[SLOABARTH]

Just picked up the long waited Magneti Marelli Tuning Box for my Abarth from 500 Madness today. Installing tonight and going for a test drive in the morning.
3 settings at 0, 40% and 77% (same as Venom concept car). Controlled by a small remote control fob as you see in the photo.

Checking out 500 maddness the price is that came up was $649 but unsure if the remote is extra. There's a description on here and it states that the remote can only be used when the car is stationary.
If you have the remote control you will be able to switch from 77% (button #2) to 40% (button #1) down to stock (button #1). Please make sure the car is in stationary position when you switch between settings.
Which is a shame. One could have used the remote switch as a boost inhibit on the lower gears and is 'built in' to some of the maps on boosted cars.

IIRC the setting on the TMC tuning box is 7 for A500 and 6 for A500SS models. Don't know how the 77% setting equates to the TMC one.
