Tuning Kits

The Assetto and esseesse kits, which are delivered to customers packed in original wooden crates – in keeping with Abarth tradition – may only be sold and installed by the official network of Abarth Assetto Corse tuners on a Grande Punto Abarth 1.4 Turbo T-Jet 155 bhp. This conversion must take place within one year or 20,000 km (12,000 miles) from its first registration. Conversions are covered by a two-year Abarth warranty from the installation date.

Assetto Tuning Kit

The Assetto Kit is the first of the two – designed to improve the chassis of the car, including the brakes and suspension. This kit includes cross-drilled brake discs at the front and rear, high performance front brake pads, special lower springs and 18” alloy wheels in white.

Esseesse Tuning Kit - from £2,000*

The second tuning kit known as the Esseesse Kit - this kit is primarily to increase the power of the engine, and is only available in conjunction with the Assetto kit. This kit adds numerous components including a special air filter 'powered by BMC', a Garrett Turbo, new injectors, twin chrome-plated exhaust tail pipes and a reflash of the engine control unit.

The Esseesse kit will enhance the 155bhp to 180bhp, with a max speed of 215 km/h and a 0-62 mph of just 7.7 seconds. Needless to say the modifications to the brakes and suspension contained within the kit mean the Grande Punto Abarth is more than capable of transmitting all this power to the road in a usable, safe and enjoyable manner.
