Inlet Duct for Fiat Abarth 500/595/695

• Lower IAT’s
• Consistent IAT’s
• Maximises airflow 
• Perfect fit for FMINDF500
• OEM+ aesthetic
• Lifetime warranty

To assist with the cold air feed to the scuttle on the Abarth 500/595/695 we developed an inlet duct which after testing in the crucible of motorsport, was found to keep a more consistent and lower IAT. With our Abarth induction kit (FMINDF500) also utilising the direct cold air feed to the scuttle panel, we knew that these race proven gains could provide a valuable addition to our ever-popular FMINDF500 Abarth 500/595/695 induction kit.

Race Proven, Daily Driven isn’t just the Forge Motorsport mantra, but it’s also the way we look to develop our products. Our technical partnership with Mini Challenge has allowed us to test our Abarth 500/595/695 components within a highly competitive motorsport series and helps us to highlight areas to develop on other products. The Mini Challenge JCW class use a homologated Forge Motorsport intake, which utilises the cold air feed from the scuttle panel to maximise the density charge of air entering the turbo intake.

⭐ Great cost-effective touch to add to an Abarth, sits nice and flush with quick clip on install ⭐

FMINLD3 was developed specifically for RHD applications. Whilst it is compatible with the LHD scuttle panel, there is minimal functional benefit when fitted to LHD vehicles, due to a blank located directly beneath the designated mounting area. We are currently exploring the possibility of a template for quick and easy modification to the LHD scuttle, which would allow airflow to be channeled towards the induction inlet more effectively. If proven feasible, this template will be made available retrospectively to LHD owners.

After valuable iterations of design, we settled for a solution that perfectly follows the contours of the scuttle panel to ensure a snug fit to capture as much cold air as possible. 3D-scanning, SolidWorks 3D CAD, and 3D printing gave us the ability to test the differences between width, height and fitment of the inlet duct to finish up with the perfect design to suit FMINDF500. By capturing the washer jet inside the inlet duct it allows for a much wider design to maximise airflow, and helps with installation.

We have spared no expense as per usual with the manufacture of this design, by having billet injection mould tooling created to produce a part with an OEM+ aesthetic. By testing samples against the OEM scuttle panel, we have been able to match the mottled plastic finish so well that you would mistake it for being a factory component! The finishing touch was the gloss finish to the Forge Motorsport logo, making our world-renowned name stand out just enough to really compliment your tastefully modified Abarth.
