Unlock the Spirited Performance of Italy
Since 1899, Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino (Fiat) has been the heartbeat of Italian motoring. From the narrow streets of Rome to the winding coastal roads of Amalfi, Fiat is known for creating vehicles with character and style. Whether it's the retro-chic 500 or the roadster heritage of the 124 Spider, these cars are designed to be driven with passion. However, strict modern emissions standards often put a damper on that "La Dolce Vita" spirit, leaving engines feeling restrained and throttle response lagging.
The GTE Stage 1 Performance Chip is designed to bring the zest back to your drive. This advanced OBDII module safely optimizes your Fiat’s On-Board Computer to remove the electronic limitations holding your engine back. It revitalizes your 500, Abarth, or 500X, delivering the zippy, responsive performance that Italian engineers originally intended—installing in minutes without a single tool.
Why Upgrade Your Fiat with GTE Stage 1?
Small displacement engines often suffer the most from factory detuning, resulting in noticeable lag when taking off from a stoplight or trying to pass on the highway. The Stage 1 upgrade sharpens your driving dynamics, making your Fiat feel lighter and more eager.
-
Zippy Acceleration: Sharpen 0-60 times and eliminate the "dead spot" in the pedal, perfect for city driving.
-
Maximize Output: Gain up to +20HP and +19.1 ft·lbs of torque (especially noticeable in Abarth and Turbo models).
-
Optimized Efficiency: Optimize air/fuel ratios for up to +4 MPG increase, making your economical car even friendlier on the wallet.
-
Instant Response: Eliminate throttle delay for up to 50% better response and a smoother idle.
-
100% Plug-n-Play: Installs in under 5 minutes inside the cabin. No grease, no mechanic required.
Safe for MultiAir, T-Jet, and MultiJet Engines
Fiat engines use advanced technology like MultiAir variable valve timing. You need a tuning solution that respects this engineering. The GTE Stage 1 is a sophisticated microprocessor that integrates seamlessly with Fiat's ECU. It works safely alongside your vehicle's existing systems, optimizing boost pressure (on turbos) and ignition timing within factory safety parameters.
Warranty Protected: We understand the value of your vehicle. This module makes zero permanent modifications. It connects to the OBDII port and can be removed instantly, reverting the car to 100% factory stock settings. It leaves no digital footprint for the dealer to find, keeping your warranty safe under the Magnuson Moss Warranty Act.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need tools to install this?
No. This is a seamless "Plug-n-Play" install. If you can plug in a phone charger, you can install this chip. It utilizes the OBDII diagnostic port typically located under the dashboard on the driver's side.
Will this work on the Abarth?
Yes! The GTE Stage 1 is a favorite among Abarth owners. It works with the turbocharged engine to smooth out power delivery and provide a noticeable boost in mid-range torque, making the "scorpion" bite even harder.
Is it safe for the smaller engines (1.2L / 1.4L non-turbo)?
Yes. Non-turbo engines often feel underpowered with A/C on or with passengers. This chip helps reclaim lost power and improves throttle response, making the car feel more capable in traffic.
How long until I see results?
You will likely feel a sharper throttle pedal immediately. Full horsepower and MPG gains typically stabilize after about 100 miles (or 2 weeks) of driving as the ECU adapts to the new optimization map.
