Added a Magnaflow exhaust which sounds pretty great; and got some red seatbelts from NGen Performance to give it a more Abarth feel inside.

Also upgrade the horn, with some Hella horns.

Also got the Eurodrive E+D and added that. It adds quite a bit of pep to the Pop. It's still slow (relative to the Abarth), but it makes it a lot more fun to drive.

Think I'm pretty much done with the Pop now, can't think of much more to change and still keep it a daily.

Although Bryan from NGen did wave this under my nose.....

That rear spoiler is very nice. You know you gotta have the last one to. Bryan thinks you need it. So do I. Go for it.

Yea kinda figured something was gonna happen when you dangled the cheese in front.

I'm not allowed to pretend to have some level of control for even a few hours ��

Okay, so we're installing a 4-2-1 manifold with a high-flow cat.

But then that's it.....probably

[Southernroadrunner]

Dont know about control but it's a nice build you guys are doing on a POP.

My Abarth decided to throw a tantrum this weekend, so all energies were devoted to that and the headers will have to wait until after the Sisters drive. We did finish the Wilwood Big Brake kit install on the Abarth; which mean that I had a spare set of Brake Performance rotors and the Abarth calipers. In true family style those were passed down to the Pop. The rear brakes also got Neu-f brake lines since they didn't want to separate from the rear calipers.

Finally got the exhaust headers and hi-flow cat installed. Fairly straightforward install, although one of the nuts is hard to get at and a ratcheting wrench is a big help.

Here's some photos with the install completed:

The sound the car makes is incredible, it does not sound like a Pop any more. There is clearly a performance boost as well, more than I was expecting. There is a noticeable extra kick. I got a specific tune file as well from EC to accommodate the change.
