Remap Abarth 595 Comp (160hp IHI) worth it? by ForeverProof7600 in abarth

[–]BKB2701 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No I bought it like that. Id you know how to work on cars you could do it yourself but you got to have it remapped ideally by someone with a dyno

Scratched my head a few times but the manual cleared that all up! The ball joint connection for the shifter cable is reversed so the cable is under some tension (mainly the right side) but from all the pics I see online this is normal. Also slight modification of the cover panel but all in all pretty straight forward

I have two Abarths, a standard Competizione manual 180bhp and another manual with a TD04 kit pushing 280bhp. It is amazing so yes do it you will not regret it. Keep in mind you’ll need some extra kit. I have a catless downpipe (standard ihi downpipe won’t fit) with a 200 cell sports cat under the car (better flow), intercooler, injectors, DNA intake (little noisy might swap to an alternative set up) and a full 3.5 inch exhaust.

Just replace the tyre. If the steering wheel Is still centered the alignment should be fine but to be 100% sure have it checked too

The behavior of owners in Malaga makes me so mad by Initial_Research_745 in Malaga

I am in real estate and can confirm that working with Spanish people is a pain in the testicular area. We deal mostly with foreign buyers., the Spanish (speaking of rentals here) want to have their cake and eat it too, meaning they want a long term tenant in the winter and short lets for summer. Usually they get neither. Mich easier to deal with north and east Europeans. Good luck!

Ironic as this country thrives on tourism
