Finally I found someone who works on Abarths

[@BWCDAD]

Great video Bryan. You're performing a great service to the abarth/Fiat community. Can't wait to see videos on a turbo replacement or clutch, flywheel, trans replacement someday.

[@sasazapadnik9335]

Turbo replacement is easy... once you remove the entire front end

[@thabrownieviking]

Finally a good install video!

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

Thanks for the kind words!

[@roberte362]

You have the best videos I’ve seen for abarth installs

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

Thank you very much! Means a lot!

[@SCUUUUD]

This mod was so effing loud. I had to remove it after a few weeks. Trying to sell the sucker now. Great video!

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

I would recommend having a vibrant resonator installed on the midpipe if the exhaust is too loud. That way you keep the increase in exhaust flow but reduce the noise.

[@SCUUUUD]

NGEN Customs and Performance good point. I installed a 12” bottle which brought the tone back to stock, except with the rancid fumes. I figured stock was a bit more healthy and cops didn’t hassle me as much haha.

[@1970borntorun]

@@SCUUUUD Exactly! The SLIGHT increase in power isn't worth the noise and hassle - especially when you can get a Performance exhaust from 500Madness that doesn't have all the faults you mentioned.

[@shmmebeat]

I always have your videos playing on the garage TV when doing upgrades to my 500 Abarth. Between you and maybe 2 other content providers, the community is covered! Thanks again for all of the great stuff Brian!!! (I finally ordered an NGEN shirt)

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

Thank you! Greatly appreciate the support!

[@noelgonzalez9549]

This was a good install video. Wish they were all like this.

Thanks Bryan!

Very well explained thank you!!

[@natesroomrule]

man i wish you would do a series on the jeep renegade

[@miklosgergelyszentesi3332]

Great video! Do not forget to write in the description, that it is also usable to Punto Evo 1,4 Multiair turbo, and Abart Punto Evo 1,4 Multiair turbo too! :) Because it has the same engine :) (955A2.000 eng code)

[@DailyDrivenCrap]

What about the Fiat500L???

[@ilijadadasovic6962]

Woooooooow :) keep going :) Excelent video, I really like it

[@alarick6395]

super t'es vidéo, bien expliqué

[@JC-jt3ug]

How are you suppose to get that nut down the bottom that you mentioned 'if you have the stock intercooler'

[@beefblockers]

Great video as always. Question Is this safe to do without disconnecting the ECU? One of my clips are broken I’m running an EC tune if that matters.

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

You should be fine

[@barryquartermaine9195]

Why did you do this extensive work - what is the gain?

[@and_rew9768]

Good work

[@MrTopgun21]

What kind of scissor jack lifts are you using ? I need those!

[@krisn8820]

I want to see improved dyno numbers

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

We do not have dyno numbers for before and after. This was filmed as a “How to install” video. I would recommend contacting ATP Turbo directly if you require additional information about the product. Thanks for watching!

[@robotrobot12345]

Are there any issues with codes from the O2 sensor? Do I need a spacer for the sensor on the midpipe?

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

Depends on the car - some people never get a cel, others do. However, with the Euro+Drive flash tune, you can have the catalyst code eliminated so you won’t get the light.

[@robotrobot12345]

NGEN Customs and Performance thank you. My 2015 Abarth is coming along nicely

[@upstatetyler2380]

I have the dart rallye 1.4 turbo. Will that make me throw a code or does the plug extension really work. I have the madness ecu which made a sick difference.

[@gabrielecampagnola8817]

Am refere to the first gasket, on the top

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

I didn’t lose a gasket. There is the one that goes between the turbo and the downpipe (up top), the v band clamp (secures the downpipe to the turbo, and the gasket that goes between the downpipe and midpipe (down below). What other gasket are you referring to?

[@777bjm]

Great Video! By any chance does the downpipe throw codes since theres no cat?

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

Without a tune, you will get a check engine light

[@smartfeller1495]

@@NGENCustomsandPerformance what about if you used an o2 spacer/spark plug non fouler on the secondary o2 sensor??

[@gcoopertrollope5672]

What size studs were you using to secure this to the mounting bracket?

[@nosnipey8351]

Can those studs be sold separately?

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

The studs are fairly generic and can be purchased at any auto parts store

[@aaronstevens6043]

Looks like this will work for the Jeep 1.4 Turbo Renegade, or no?

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

Yes it should work for the Jeep 1.4 renegade

[@dawsonmaloney9824]

Hey does this car have any other mods to it during this video for example exhaust or tune? Just wondering if this is how it will sound from stock to down pipe

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

It has the neu-f race exhaust but it will sound similar

[@Martin-qo6xz]

Do you think this will fit a punto same engine.. not sure on the turbo or not cheers

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

I do not know for sure as we do not have the punto here.

[@Miikecash27]

Will this fit on a 2017 Abarth 500

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

Yes it does!

[@ClementeGalloJr]

What kind of HP & TQ gains can I expect from this install?

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

It really depends on what modifications you have. Tough to say without putting your car on a dyno

[@ClementeGalloJr]

@@NGENCustomsandPerformance Let me be more specific, on a completely stock vehicle on average what kind of performance gains can a buyer expect?

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

Unfortunately we do not have those numbers from ATP

[@vitomorris]

Question! How come this down pipe wouldn’t fit right in the 124 spider ? Even though it works on all the other 1.4L turbos ? I really want to install a down pipe on my abarth 124

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

The Downpipe is a different shape and length on the 124

[@DailyDrivenCrap]

Does this work for the Fiat500L

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

Yes it does!

[@MrHockeyweed]

Are you all still making this part I'm having a hard time finding a high-flow cat downpipe right now

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

ATP stopped making it due to EPA crackdown. However, we do offer the Eurocompulsion High Flow Catted Downpipe. However, they are currently on back order right now.

[@MrHockeyweed]

@@NGENCustomsandPerformance thanks for the information

[@jamest2544]

Is there no gasket on the stock down pipe where it connects to the exhaust from factory?

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

Yes there is a gasket that connects the factory Downpipe to the midpipe. There is also a gasket that goes between the turbo and Downpipe

[@jamest2544]

@@NGENCustomsandPerformance do you have any idea where I can find the factory post cat exhaust gasket? I’m gutting my cat and absolutely cannot seem to find one

[@eagle528hz]

Hi Brian I followed the instructions in your video everything is on the site but my engine light is on 🥲 how I can fix that? thank you

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

If you are not running a tune with a revision that deletes the PO420 code, you will have a CEL.

[@LeeSmithy89]

will this decat fit onto standard exhaust ?

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

Lee Smithson yes!

[@fabianwolf8576]

Does this downpipe fit on 2019 595 Turismo T-Jet? I have the Garret Turbo.

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

I do not know - sorry.

[@pinarellospeedracer]

Any P codes from the O2 sensor

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

Without a proper tune, you will get a po420 code

[@lutherrodgers8793]

Where r u located,

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

Luther Rodgers Spring, Texas. Just north of Houston

[@jonathancarrasco3356]

What you do with the check engine light on that you will have after installing this catless downpipe? O2 sensor spacer? Or ?

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

If you have Euro+Drive, the cat code can be deleted so the check engine light will not come on

[@jonathancarrasco3356]

NGEN Customs and Performance cool thanks the help!!

[@MattyH1992]

I must be the stupidest person alive because that 10mm nut holding the intercooler bracket on has me stuck. My arms are too big to go from the top down, and too big to go from the battery side over. The intercooler pipes are in the way from the bottom.

[@NGENCustomsandPerformance]

Take the front bumper off, remove the headlights and then loosen the front core support (see my turbo video for details). This will give you more room

[@MattyH1992]

@@NGENCustomsandPerformance I actually ended up going to a buddies with a garage and proper tools. One of the flange nuts rounded off and the nut on the v band started spinning too. Eventually got it though lol
