For those who want to geek out on all the little differences between Fiat and ND. Turbo on the Fiat means they went with high temp silicon exhaust hanger for the midpipe, and the smallest NACA duct I think I have seen to push air past the downpipe below the turbo. Notice drive half shaft rubber dampers, which are not on the ND GT we have.

Perhaps the most ugly stock exhaust ever...

After saving 52 pounds higher up in the Fiat we put just a couple back on with our complete braces, replaces the flimsy factory brace for much more effectiveness. Did this because I noticed a lot of cowl shake, our braces help tame the flex, makes this great little Roadster feel like it is SOLID!
