@LondonAbarth124 Is the snow can damage the soft top of this car or no problem with snow on it ?

I'm curious because I'll have to leave mine outside during Christmas and New Year Eve party with my family. 😅

No, snow cannot damage the soft top.

No, snow cannot damage the soft top.

Good to know then, as the Abarth 124 is my first roadster in my life, wasn't sure of this.

Thank you buddy for the answer !

New battery fitted as recommended by Brexit. Fits perfectly although I did have to trim the battery box liner a little. While I was on a roll I also changed the wiper blades for Bosch Twin aero blades. Then feeling really smug, I changed the dipped beam bulbs for some Osram Night Breakers. All worked and provided some much needed improvements at this time of year.

On longer trips, the door handles can attack your knees if you rest them against the door. Here is how we solved that:

Finally getting my EC Race FMIC installed today. Thanks to the guys at @MADNESS Autoworks! And the slow parade of mods goes on. 😎

Added a RaceChip and MaxFire coils today to my 2017 Abarth.
Trying to get to the boost pressure sensor was a PITA, removed wheel, fender liner and even then with my big old mitts it was a definite challenge but after about an hour I was finally able to get sensor unconnected and reconnected. Have only driven it for about 15 minutes but initial impression is good. Everything works (app, bluetooth) no CEL's and there's a definite difference in the power / torque especially in the "race" mode including less turbo lag. Getting her ready for FotD in April

Around 29,000 miles. Spark plugs and air filter.

Plugs had normal appearance, air filter looked pretty clean, except for some bugs .

Thanks!

Just got installed 18”x7” Ultraleggeras in black matte, with Michelin Pilot Sport 5 205/40 r18, i just love the looks and how it drives now

And got this phone case, it matches perfectly with the interior

 

[Tazilon Brenner]

Washed both of them. Adding a mod tomorrow...

Its taken some time, but making some noticeable progress. The main delaying factor is that I'm essentially removing every part of the factory infotainment system. The touch-screen, the master control module, the tuner/amp, the factory speakers and wiring. Its all been replaced with aftermarket components. Doing so required disassembling the dash, doors, interior trim and removing the seats. I actually had to unbolt the doors from the car to get to the plug that connects the wiring harness to the doors so I could bypass the factory speaker wiring.

I like to tinker, so I'm having fun with the mod. But it is also a lot more work than I originally planned. If someone wants an Android head unit, unless you feel like taking your car apart, I would suggest ordering one of the plug-and-play units from AliEx. Like most modern cars, the electronics are not at all user friendly.

Started putting it all back together and ran the first full system test today. The new head unit looks great, coupled with the new amps it sounds awesome! The new gauge sitting to the right of the dash gauges displays pre and post intercooler air temps. It will be interesting to see just how much the FMIC affects the intake temps.

Once the inside is back together, the next step is to take the car to the tire shop and have the factory TPMS senders replaced with the ones that work with the head unit. The new TPMS units provide individual tire presure and temps as well.

Here is a shot from the on-line manual as I don't have the sensors installed yet. And yes, it also displays in ft pounds and farenheit.
