So finally the time came to add some more power to my abarth 124 spider. My abarth 124 spider currently has an abarthtuning.com sport cat and cross pipe. The abarth 124 spider also has a BMC air filter and upgraded coil packs. What was i hoping to achieve from remapping my abarth 124 on the driveway? I wanted to add a bit more power to compliment the already brilliant chasis the 124 spider has. In this video i show you the process of the remap and also the first drive with the new map on the Abarth 124 spider.

@NickG24 3 года назад

Can hear it getting through the Rev range quicker and especially when you change up, it’s on it straight away. Sounds great too! I Suppose 25bhp is going to make quite a difference in a 1100kg car. I got a similar remap through quantum for our transit custom camper van! The box looks identical, probably a generic bit of kit. I knew I wasn’t going to dyno the van but did some performance tests before and after: 30-50mph (3rd gear) was 7.31s, now 5.85s. (4th) - was 10.86, now 11.44 strangely. 50-70 (4th) was 14.52 now 8.88! (5th) - was 14.39, now 11.32. 30-70 (through gears) was 18.05, now 13.18s. Some absolutely huge gains, can now hold its own with cars where it struggled before. Great thing as you say about these is you can put it back to standard spec and there’s no silly box to install, fiddling on with wiring. Not a fan of hose piggy back boxes.

@StefABtv 3 года назад

Yeah defo prefer these options to the piggyback boxes too. Yeah it defo feels more responsive and has some good pull now :)

@steveaga4683 3 года назад

I took my car to a specialist in order to get the Celtic Performance remap. Sadly, I was told that my car has had a software update (probably by the dealer at the last service) and it will not take the remap.....at all! Is anyone aware of this issue?.... I have to wait for Celtic to crack the update before any remap can take place.

@StefABtv 3 года назад

I’ve heard of this before. Infact i know someone who it’s just happened to and they can’t connect their power gate to the car now. Defo one to be mindful of

Hi stet , I am thinking of Buying a M2c or 124 , which one is more fun ? Thx in advance 🙏

@StefABtv 3 года назад

M2C mate. As much as I love the 124 the M2C is leagues better I’ve driven a few of them and I love that car. Brilliant daily and more practical that the 124, quicker still rear wheel drive only issue is it doesn’t sound great out the box due to OPF. Will need a good exhaust to fix that but other than that i trumps the 124

I’m 20yrs old. Will be a stage 1 remap. Standard power figures of my car is 171hp and 280nm. After the remap I should have 205hp and 320nm. I can’t wait to test her out after.

We've had it a few years now. But my girlfriend drives an Audi A5 S-Line Quattro convertible. Was £36k pre registered. Has 249bhp and virtual cockpit. Who in the right mind would buy an Abarth and do it up. When both vehicles would probably be similar money all in. I can understand kids buying the Fiat for £10k when they are 10 years old. But who buys them in the first place at near list price?
