My 2013 Abarth Build

[Abarth Five O]

The Injen Air Intakes I saw on Ebay @ $233 are for the regular Fiat 500s, not the Abarth 1.4 Multi Air Turbo.

Yes... and you can go to the INJEN website and look through their product Listings... No ABARTH.

Now I recall seeing the Injen CAI for the Abarth on another thread. It's similar to the R/R CAI design.

Is that a metal pipe on the Injen intake? From what I can tell, it isn't much different than a stock set-up with a K&N drop-in. Hopefully that's not a metal pipe... last time I ran a metal pipe with a P-flow on my MKIV Gti, I lost power after the 1st hard run. I can only imagine it would be even worse under our hoods. This design looks like it might keep the air relatively cool up until the filter, but from there until the inlet, is where the heat aspect might come into play. Injen makes decent parts though, and they usually dyno test them. They contacted me about 5 months ago to use my car, but it was a bit too out of the way for me to lend it to them. Surprised they went this way, design wise, instead of their usual cold-air approach. Looks like fitment will be nice and clean.

I live in san Francisco so not to.hot here plus got.the turbo blanket so that will help with underhood temp also. for 200 brand .ew I am.happy.wi the deal

If it is not ceramic coated then just wrap the intake piping and as for cool air the looks of it suggest that it is fairly well insulated from heat when the hood closes on the rubber gaskets. Under and behind the filter though I do think they could have done a bit better as that is what you are referring to shagghie. For $200 that'd make me pretty happy though I still like my RRM intake and think it'd have been a great option to go along with the exhaust as BigT stated. Their new engine covers look amazing!

well just got finished with some of my appearance mods. This car as well as all my others i buy new i take the calipers off clean the rotors and paint them. You will notice esp. the front rotors rust easy. By spraying them and then the pad wipes away the paint with no negative results just a clean look. I've been doing this on my cars since the early 90s.

So brand new the rotors look like this


i then take off the calipers and paint the rotors so looks like this




also i painted the front/rear reflectors

ssssweeeeeeeeeeettttttttttttttttttttt!!

One good thing about being a kw dealer they take care of you esp. when their parts are going on your car. The coilovers are due in tomorrow overnight delivery no extra charge

[trevc]

I put oil on my rotors. No rust issues here

[shagghie]

I think if you painted your stock wheels semigloss black, lower the car, put 15mm spacers in the rear, you will have a nice wide look, especially if you finish off with a set of mudflaps:

akin to this:


They make white Poly flaps with Scorpions on them like these too;



this way u can get a wide look, and run 215's the next time you buy tires for a little more grip.
You also save some coin for the ATM FMIC coming out soon... the ultimate in bling and performance.... (just sayin')

You can't go too wrong no matter what, your car is already looking ace!

EDIT: chk out the lester Agressive rear diffusors to for more rump in your bump.
