[@Blingchachink]

Yo please keep upgrading and showing us! Drive safe don’t DIE

[@FNBEN1]

You are were the first person I subscribed to like 8 years ago. Look how far you’ve come bro!

[@saabkyle04]

Thank you so much!! It's been an amazing journey over the years, that's for sure!

[@ryanwalker1376]

Man you're making me want to forget getting a r53 mini and get a Abarth now!

[@saabkyle04]

Speaking from experience, I had an R53 MINI and loved it, but I absolutely would take this in a heartbeat. The MINI has a nicer interior, but where it matters the most, I get far more smiles out of this car than I did the MINI. It has so much character!

[@ryanwalker1376]

@saabkyle04 copy that, thanks man!

[@bhumiriady]

That air intake for the Abarth looks so cool, not gonna lie! As always, I enjoyed the install video so much.^^

[@RobertKohut]

When an intake looks like a muffler.... LOL. Nice kit!!

[@fordmuscleluis9710]

That is definitely a fantastic upgrade Bro way to go

[@DC-tm9sl]

Nice job! Greetings from a new subscriber and fellow Abarth owner 🦂 in the UK

[@Berley_1234]

so i hear you're the godfather of youtube car vloggers.... congrats

[@chriswilliams2583]

Hey Kyle, Happy new year!

[@chriswilliams2583]

I enjoy watching your videos!

[@camilobermudez6683]

It makes look like the car have more into it. Looks very nice

[@dlg5485]

Love it!

[@saabkyle04]

Me too!

[@tucksmith8300]

That’s definitely a nice upgrade

[@saabkyle04]

I think so too!

[@269KID1]

The sweet turbo s 20:02 ound for a moment, ahhh..I love this beast😂😂

[@saabkyle04]

I know right! Just one of the many things I love about this car!

[@hughmccabe3587]

Thanks for the great video. I recently bought a 2015. I am doing a little maintenance. A few questions. 1. Is there a Mass Air Flow sensor? I usually clean these when changing my air filters. 2. Any idea how much performance this kit added (or is it mainly aesthetics, looks very cool!). 3. All in, how much did this cost.. roughly? TIA. Hugh

[@ThatOneChannelinAZ]

I had one of these with 248 hp at the crank and 229 at the wheels. You wanna know what i did let me know Kyle. My car was wrapped and had a full carbon dash, console and such as well as a gloss flip wrap and tons more. I own a new custom porsche now and the fiat was way faster still.

[@pathological-liar]

Any tune required for aftermarket air intake on the 500 Abarth?

[@chester2049]

Finally i can see how my flat 500 will sound with that upgrade now do a blow off valve

[@THESPICYMEATBALL93]

I got a turbo blanket from madness autoworks and it has the spot at the top for that sensor but my sensor on my 2013 comes out the right bottom. I'm trying to get a credit or exchange but there ignoring my emails kind of makes me upset I'm not sure why they didn't specify online.

[@williambrenkley2322]

Can you do an update on the Chevrolet Chevelle, SS?

[@saabkyle04]

No updates to report, it's been put aside. I talked about some the reasons in my two most recent youtube LIVEs. I'll probably work on finishing the '62 GMC and the 240SX before attempting to get back on the Chevelle. Long story short, the guy that was helping me with it is no longer helping me. I have to take things one at a time because, unfortunately, that car has a lot of issues that never got worked out like they were supposed to.

[@lemuelanastacio2071]

Cool

[@saabkyle04]

Thanks!

[@jan195601]

When does the after market exhaust go on?

[@saabkyle04]

I'm not sure, I'd like to do one, have my eye on a few, but we'll see!

[@J.W.W.]

Probably hear a lot more injector rattle when ditching the stock cover

[@saabkyle04]

It's really not as bad as you might expect. You can hear it a little more with the hood open, but that's about it. I have some clips at the end of the video. I've heard new cars with far worse injector rattle straight from the factory lol.

[@denisrousseau9071]

or how to polish t_rd

[@saabkyle04]

LOL funny guy 😂
