Been working hard on the little beastie.
Should be running about 170bhpish when its finished. Still has Brembos and OZ Superturismos in anthracite to go on, as well as a lagged decat.
Been fitting the FMIC today, I know its not 100% central but I am yet to hook up one side of the pipework, then I will center it.

Keep the intercooler discreet & get some kind of grille to protect it rather than it being fully exposed like that, I just get the feeling a massive brick could come flying up & do some serious damage.
Nice idea with the lickle bonnet vent for the induction kit but the heat in the engine bay cancel it out?

What kind of performance does 170hp get you in one of these? I'm thinking 1/4's and 0-60?
The bodykit is a standard one. Its the rare abarth kit and you wont see many Punto GTs with it. I went out of my way to get hold of an original Fiat plastic kit rather than the fiberglass copies as well.
Not sure if I will fit mesh to the front yet, I havent decided.
As for the bonnet vent I am sure that it will make a very worthwhile difference. Especially as a lot of the air going into the engine bay is now diverted due to the fmic fitment.
