- Hi and welcome to my brand new channel dedicated to all things Abarth and to Abarth 500/595 lovers across the World!! I decided to start up with a step by step fitting guide for the Forge Induction kit, I wanted to watch one before I fitted mine but there wasn't one that showed all of the steps....so, I made my own, to help you guys (and girls) when you fit yours!! Some bits are quite fiddly and some bits aren't explained well in the instructions (like removing the scuttle panel) so, I hope this helps you. It took me about 2.5 hours to fit on my own. Thankfully the video isn't that long!! Thanks for watching, Paul.

What an amazing step-by-step video. Exactly what I needed to give me the confidence to fit the forge induction kit myself. Champion mate 💪👌
No worries mate glad it helps you!
Thank you for your video! I bought and installed this kit with the help of watching your clear instructions! 👍 Absolutely LOVE the sound my Competizione makes now along with the silicon elbow!
this is exactly the detail I needed to go give this a shot myself - looks perfectly do'able; looking forward to slapping this on my 595 Comp one weekend!
Do it, you won't regret it!!
Perfect how to video, it's greatly appreciated and will use this to guide my installation. Thanks mate 👍 looking forward to your next video!
Thanks man!
Hello, congratulations it's a really nice video.
I'm Italian and for months I would like to buy that filter but here it is not very popular and finally there is a clear guide that explains step by step how to mount it.
A really good choice of cars and components, I also have a TBF elbow. I hope you will make other videos like this.
Thanks and greetings from Italy
Thankyou, I appreciate your positive comments. I am making a new video to be posted soon all about my car and all of its mods.
Dude that was an amazing step by step, was looking forward to watching all your other videos and it turns out you've got none! Shocked, as that was so well done I'd have expected a channel full of them
Hey man, thanks for the great comment. I sold my Abarth and then normal life and work overtook stuff!! I think i have a fallback though if ever i need it though in the future.
@@autoabarth595 Ah that's a real shame, You've got the knack for TH-cam so try and get back to it even if it's part time big buck can be made with it lol.
I'll subscribe just in case you ever do return it, even if it isn't with an Abarth haha
We didn’t hear the cold start with a cheeky first rev?!?!?!?!?! Great detailed installation video! 👍🏻 lovely car
Thanks man! Gonna do a full review of the car soon so stay tuned!
Ace Abarth video!
Thanks man!!
Very informative vid 👌
Thanks dude.
excellent and lovely cor
Thankyou!
Damn been waiting for your next video!!!
It's gonna be up in the next week!
@@autoabarth595 good stuff I Can't wait!
Are you using torx to remove the inner bulkhead scuttle?
Hello, how is cleaning done? I put the same kit on my 595
thanks for this step by step video. Nice watch btw;-)
Thanks man! New video coming soon of the finished car !
Excellent video. I’ve been considering which induction kit to get for my Abarth 500 and for the Forge kit is definitely the most appealing. Was worried about the install, but your guide makes it look pretty simple! 👍 great work. How have you found the running a few month from install? And would you recommend the forge turbo hose as well? Cheers
Thanks man, the car runs brilliantly with it on. No issues at all. I think the gains are most noticeable at higher speeds, high speed acceleration is so much more punchy. You should deffo bin the stock plastic turbo pipe it's far too restrictive at that thin elbow angle.
Great video!
Noob questions:
From were does it gets the air and were does it go?
In the scattle, you fitted a steal pipe to suck air in? Can it get also rain water or washer fluid ?
Hope you upload soon!
Hi. Glad you like the video! It takes the air from behind the top engine scuttle panel. The air intake pipe passes through this panel and sits underneath and at the back of the lower windscreen cover. It's far enough behind this cover to prevent water ingress. The air travels down through the filter and then into the intake system.
is there any risk using the car on heavy rain? i mean if water could get through the vents below the windshield? only heavy rain
hey Paul, greetings from Budapest, Hungary. Many thanks for this detailed video, I loved to watch it, mcuh appreciated! Now I am sure I will buy this - any experience on performance? lower or upper level? I also have a BMC pop-off valve which makes that swooosh sound and a Magnetti Marelli Bombardone 2.0, but combing with this FORGE induction kit I think the sound combination will be mind-blowing :)))
Thanks Edward! Performance is up about 7bhp, I will show the dyno gains in the next video which is coming very soon, this will be a full review of the car and the performance. I also have a Bombardone fitted !!
Top vid, subbed, looking at doing mine, any idea if the inner scuttle panel that needs cutting is the same on all 500's? just looking at picking one up to cut rather than butchering theone mine came with.... cheers!
Glad you like the vid. Pretty sure they're all the same. Use a hole saw like I did and you cant really make a mess!
@@autoabarth595 Believe me, I can make a mess ! one question though, was it worth it?
@@peterowbottom1110 yes definitely, once you get used to the induction noise. The car needs no more power now. It's perfect now in my opinion at about 210 bhp. I'll be posting a vid soon with a full review of the car.
Great video, what was the HP gain?
Thanks! About 9 bhp.
Hi I am looking for induction kit as well. About the Forge when is raining you don’t think that the straight pipe sucking air almost outside in that position water could come in as well?
Hello, no it doesn't suck water in as the open end of the pipe is shielded underneath the windscreen scuttle and sits between this and the engine bay scuttle.
@@autoabarth595 thanks 👊🏼
Is it possible to have this intake in combination with a bmc blow off? This means that there is no more hose between the blow off and the intake
Yeah i think you can.
What are the benefits after installing that admission? What did you win? Hp? nM?
Well i gained around 6-7 bhp. Coupled with an unrestricted exhaust i went from 200bhp to 210 bhp. Much more noticeable gains at the top end.
Do you have a video of the car running and the induction noise?
I'm in the process of making a full video review of the car and all its mods. Check back soon!!
Fyi fella there isnt suppose to be 3 clips in the panel. That middle screw is on all fiat 500 model cars
I was wondering if the Forge induction kit is compatible with all year Abarth 500?
I think the kit i fitted is for 2016 onwards.
@Orcasauruss,
Why are you asking this idiot?
Its assumed an Italian fitted a screw into the cowl at the factory.
The car was assembled in Poland.
If its had the car from new, then a polish person put that screw in place not an italian or if the vehicles used, then depending on how many owned it previously, one of those owners or a garage they used!
The person uplaoding this video is an idiot.
Where did you get the abarth hoodie from?
I think from Ebay, it was a long time ago though!
The rarest thing of all time the 10mm and 13mm
Don't do this if you daily drive your car - the squeel coming through that pipe is aimed directly at you and it's not pleasant at all. It's a constant turbo whine. AIRTEC makes an injection kit for the Abarth that doesn't require cutting a hole in the plastics, it's much more pleasant to the ears and does the same job.
I suggest that the mechanic remove the watch and jewelery before work. Unless he has money to advertise these items.
Are you coming to mug me?!
@@autoabarth595 I had such an intention but I was exposed :)
@@autoabarth595
If they were they wouldnt find anything of value, not even a brain!
Eye tie? Really?
Hi, yeah! Why?
@@autoabarth595 pretty much a racial slur for an Italian that’s why.
@@DominoStreetMagic why is it racist?
@@DominoStreetMagic Italians are not a race by the way, they're a Nationality. Like the British are a Nationality. Not a race.
@@autoabarth595 all ethnicity are race this is no more different than using the N word
Sound ??!!, People want to watch these videos for a sound part so they can decide if they are complete shit and waste of money.
