    Default My Stilo Abarth

    Heres a pic of my Stilo Abarth. Its already been lowered on eibachs, has the steel kick plates and a modded sub.

    Its going well, havent done anything with it as yet. Ive got a BMC CDA that im going to fit and im also tinkering around with the CAN stuff and the CN+ in preparation for my simple carpc.

    As for mods, well the steering is a bit dodgy at the moment, had some advisories on the MOT so thats got my attention at the moment. The other thing on my todo list airbag warnings, since I had it washed by the handcar wash guys it chelps a bit so think im going to have to check some connections under the bonnet and a bit more with the fault reader.

    See y'all around

    Looks blue to me.. maybe wrong through cos some times colours on forums can be deceiving ..your very wise using the cda and as a consiquence wont get the dreaded engine lights with it. . but will still need a map to get the full benefit from it..

    Hi guys,

    Cheers for the comments. Funilly enough I had an ink black '99 Bravo HLX a while ago(where my name comes from), and its not as dark as that was. Im embarassed to say I dont know what specific colour it is, when its clean and the sun hits it it looks bluey/purple, ill have to check.

    In respect to the CDA, I had read the various things regarding engine warning light with other kits and saw this for sale on FF, so bought it and some neoprene ducting. I was going to fit it last weekend but got the battery out and I was loosing light so will have another crack this weekend. If anyones got any tips for removing the old stuff and plumbing this in I would be very grateful

    After ive got the steering rack replaced and sorted the airbag warnings or whatever needs doing then im going to get it remapped in the summer.

    Colour code for your car should be on a sticker under the bonnet..plumbing in the cda will need some now silicone hoses to do it ..one from the ecu and one from the inlet side of the CDA to a suitable air supply away from water ingression ..you dont want to turn your car into a tarmac sucker do you
