One of the biggest power bottle necks on the FIAT Abarth is the OEM twin intercooler system. Small and lengthy charge pipes, and poorly placed small dual cores, make the OEM Abarth / Turbo setup a less than desirable and efficient performance intercooler system. So we took a long hard look, and designed a superior front mounted intercooler (FMIC) system of our own. Made from only the highest quality materials and utilizing a bar and plate core, our Corsa Forza Abarth FMIC system dramatically increases both airflow and boost, while efficiently dropping the thermal temperature of the air charge headed to your engines intake. The end result is a colder denser charge that is not only safer for your engine, but will add the much needed additional horsepower that you crave for your FIAT 500 Abarth / Turbo. We designed our intercooler with both the inlet and outlet on the engine side. Unlike some other Abarth FMIC on the market with ridiculously long charge pipe routing, our engine side front inlet/outlet system enabled us to reduce the over all charge pipe length, thus allowing us to make it even more efficient by taking the shortest route possible from the turbo to the intercooler, and the intercooler to the throttle body. It also eliminated any need to remove or have to work around the Abarth’s OEM driving lights as well. Our Abarth FMIC comes with simple and adjustable mounting brackets, allowing for simple installation of the intercooler core, and custom made five ply silicone charge pipes to minimize any chance for boost leaks while helping to maximize thermal efficiency. All kits come with all the necessary hardware you need for a nice clean & simple install, and detailed installation instructions as well are available to download. All Intercoolers come in a Raw Aluminum Finish

Great quality, fitment is perfect
Great quality, fitment is perfect, quality materials. Performance is greatly improved, less turbo lag and more high end. so far its a great intercooler to upgrade the abarth 500

My car feels way more torque. Well the gas feels heavier/more aggressive;)

Quality product, great price, noticeable difference!
I have read reviews for nearly every fmic available for my 2013 Fiat 500 Abarth and then purchased the Corsa Forza fmic. Installation instructions were spot on. In fact it was way harder to remove the stock crap (1.5 hrs) than install the new CFP fmic (0.5 hrs). Parts arrived fast. New parts fit well! Honestly took a little manipulation to get things to fit perfect but to me that is to be expected... After initial test drive with little to no expectations it definitely felt more (seat of the pants) powerful. The second thing I noticed was that I was getting to the rev limit in first gear quicker. I didn't expect this and admittedly it took me a bit to learn to get in to second gear earlier. Quality product for a good price !!! In case anyone cares other mods I have are full k&n cai and a magneti marelli piggyback tuner with remote, and brisk spark plugs...

Makes the car more responsive, keeps intake temps down, & fits great
Ordered this as I wanted to keep my intake air temps in check and wanted something that fit without trimming the bumper. Other than the small amount of trimming needed on the radiator shroud (as per directions) this intercooler fits nicely. I painted mine black with radiator paint for a stealthier look since i'm in CA. Overall i'm very pleased and would recommend this to any Abarth Fiat / 500 Turbo owner.The problem with the factory dual side mount intercooler setup, other than the ridiculous amount of piping, is that no air goes across them in traffic, which allows the intake air temps to creep up (read: dangerous). By relocating the intercooler to the front of the car you not only get better cooling, less piping but also the radiator fan will draw air through it when you're in traffic.
