and the big one abarth front and rear aprons yay just gotta spray them carribean orange :yum:

also been doing some light reading on the mf2 just wondering if anyone who's recently had their mf2 setup could tell me how many turns in there input gain poteniometer and the Pressure input threshold potentiometer are set at just so i can compare to mine factory preset is 12 turns maximum is 25.

looking to attend as many shows as possible this year now i actually have the funds to finish the car off!1

Personnally would leave the front end of tango alone, i like it, abarth rear i think would set it off real nicely though..

im not too sure mate tbh came out of the yellow abarth was a perfect fit though so dont know if it was a universal one.

updates will be coming soon enough just waiting for someone to be free to do all the work for me :)
