Chip tuning for Fiat 124 Spyder 1.4 Multi-Air 170 hp ECU
Fiat 124 Spyder (2016) 1.4 Multi-Air 170 hp — mass-market petrol engine of the passenger segment of the Stellantis (бывш. FCA — Fiat Chrysler Automobiles) group (Италия, 1899). Stage 1 chip tuning raises power from 170 to 195 hp (+25 hp, +15%) and torque from 250 to 300 Nm (+50 Nm). This engine ships with different ECU variants: Marelli 8GMF, Marelli 8GMK, Marelli 8GMK.Fx, Marelli 8TDW. The flashing method is determined by the specific unit: OBD, Bench or Boot mode. The ZF 9HP48-948TE TCU is calibrated with a separate file — torque limiter and shift maps for Stage 1. In the CHIPOK database: 5 configurations · 5 ECU variants. The 2016 generation — mid-generation petrol ECUs (MEDC17/MEVD17/Simos PCR), OBD flash on production revisions.
Fiat has historically specialised in compact and city cars. MultiAir is Fiat's intake-valve control system. Fiat shares some ECUs and algorithms with Alfa Romeo and Lancia. On mid-range Fiat turbo petrol engines, Stage 1 delivers a noticeable gain.
The Fiat community in Italy offers a large pool of ready-made Stage files for compacts and the Ducato. On mid-range Fiat petrol engines, Stage 1 delivers a noticeable gain. On pre-2017 Fiat models, Stage 1 is done via OBD without bench. Mid-range Fiat engines are a high-volume chip tuning subject. The Fiat community in Southern Europe has a large pool of ready-made Stage files.
On mainstream Fiat models the TCU rarely needs calibration below Stage 1+. Fiat uses Aisin automatics and its own automated gearboxes. Dualogic is Fiat's badge for its automated gearbox.
Frequently asked questions
How much does the power of the Fiat 124 Spyder 1.4 Multi-Air 170 hp increase after Stage 1?

How does Stage 1 differ from stock on the Fiat 124 Spyder?
Stage 1 chip tuning of the Fiat 124 Spyder is a rework of the ECU maps: boost pressure, ignition advance, target lambda and the removal of factory torque limiters. The gain is +25 hp with no hardware changes.
Can you do Stage 1 on the Fiat 124 Spyder 1.4 Multi-Air 170 hp?
Yes, Stage 1 for the Fiat 124 Spyder 1.4 Multi-Air 170 hp stays within the factory limits for boost pressure, knock and temperature. On a healthy engine with a serviced turbo and injectors there is no risk.
How much does Stage 2 add on the Fiat 124 Spyder?
Stage 2 on the Fiat 124 Spyder 1.4 Multi-Air 170 hp means software + hardware (exhaust, intake, intercooler). The gain depends on the specific hardware combination.
Which ECUs are found on the Fiat 124 Spyder 1.4 Multi-Air 170 hp?
The Fiat 124 Spyder 1.4 Multi-Air 170 hp was fitted with different ECUs depending on the year and trim: Marelli 8GMF, Marelli 8GMK, Marelli 8GMK.Fx, Marelli 8TDW. The write method (OBD, Bench, Boot) is determined when the unit is read.
Is the ZF 9HP48-948TE TCU calibrated together with Stage 1?
Yes, on the Fiat 124 Spyder 1.4 Multi-Air 170 hp the ZF 9HP48-948TE TCU is calibrated with a separate file. The torque limit, shift maps, launch control rpm and clutch torque map are changed. The factory torque limiter in the TCU is usually below what the engine can deliver after Stage 1.
What happens to the Fiat 124 Spyder warranty after chip tuning?
The factory warranty of the Fiat 124 Spyder does not remain valid after Stage 1 — the manufacturer withdraws its obligations once the ECU software is changed. CHIPOK provides its own warranty on its work and support.
How long does remapping the Fiat 124 Spyder take?
On the Fiat 124 Spyder 1.4 Multi-Air 170 hp: OBD flash 25-30 minutes, Bench (if required) about an hour. The file processing itself takes 5-30 minutes once the original bin is received.
Is the original file kept when chip tuning the Fiat 124 Spyder?
Yes, the original ECU firmware of the Fiat 124 Spyder 1.4 Multi-Air 170 hp is kept and can be flashed back at any time. Returning to stock via OBD takes 25-30 minutes.
What is the price of a Stage 1 remap for the Fiat 124 Spyder?
Stage 1 for the Fiat 124 Spyder 1.4 Multi-Air 170 hp is paid for with CHIPOK credits (1 cr = 1 €). The final amount is set in the calculator, taking the extra options (off functions) into account.
