Introduction
Got this car in January this year with 145,500 km's on the clock from an acquaintance. It was a bit of an impulse buy as I was looking to get an Abarth 500, but this popped randomly while scrolling around, and I fell instantly in love.
I'm planning to do some small mods to this car, as I'm very keen on keeping it in top shape and I want to drive it for many years to come.
The previous owner repainted much of the body panels, installed a new VL36 turbocharger, exhaust manifold, deleted PCV, bigger FMIC, Abarth camshafts and H&R lowering springs. I've installed an oil catch can, tyres, changed the handbrake cables, and one rear brake caliper needed to be changed.
I plan to have an cat back stainless steel exhaust (straight piped, but i'm a bit afraid it would be a bit noisy and obnoxious lol), and a remap. I'm looking for 160-180 bhp from this setup, nothing crazy, just enough for a bit of fun. I don't know how much power it currently makes, it wasn't dyno'ed.
Also, I plan to have the diamond cut finish redone on the rims as they are a bit scuffy and scratched. And maybe in the future I'll get some big Brembo calipers from an Abarth 595, coupled with some Bilstein B6 Performance shocks.
