123/TUNE-4-A-V-FIAT-TC for Fiat 124 and 131 (USB version)

123/TUNE the USB programmable electronic 123ignition

Programming your ideal advance curve? The 123/TUNE ignition enables you to do so. Just using a (shielded) USB cable and notebook. So if you want to tune your engine or have an engine that does not have a standard distributor available... the 123/TUNE can help you out. You can easily setup the 123/TUNE to fulfill even the most demanding requirements.

The unit offers two sets of curves that can be selected by placing power on the yellow wire from the 123/TUNE. By using this function you will be able to switch between two pre-programmed curves without having to use a computer. Particularly apt when you are (also) driving on LPG.

Model "FIAT-TC" for Fiat distributors

The "FIAT-TC" model will replace the mechanical distributor (mounted on top of the cylinder-head) in the popular Fiat twin-camshaft engines, like in the Fiat 124 and the Fiat 131.

Installation manual 123/TUNE

We strongly advise you to check the dimensions of the 123/TUNE with the original distributor cap AND to carefully read the installation manual before you order! In the installation manual you'll find more information and a few examples with a step by step explanation on how to install and program the 123/TUNE. Note: the right distributorcap for the TUNE-4-A-V-FIAT-TC has Bosch no. 1.235.522.332.

You can download the latest version of the 123/TUNE software here: www.123ignition.com. The minimum system requirements for the 123-tune software are:
• MS Windows XP
• 1 gigahertz (GHz) processor
• 256 megabytes (MB) RAM
• Free (powered!) USB port
• Shielded USB cable with mini-B plug (male) – also available in our webshop

USB cable, coil and spark plugs

Please note: the 123/TUNE will be delivered WITHOUT shielded USB-cable. The manufacturer advises you to use a Belkin cable, of course you can also order this here. Below you’ll find a picture from the cable at ‘Accessories’ and you can easily add it to your cart.

In the same way you can easily order a new coil. Although used coils all look alike, they should be viewed with suspicion since one cannot tell from the outside whether and how often they were exposed to overheating in the past. Installing the 123ignition system will ensure that the coil will never overheat again in the future. We recommend the 123 Blue Coil.

Perhaps you will also need new spark plugs? At 123ignitionshop we’ve added the spark plugs most commonly used in addition to the 123ignitions we offer. See: the spark plugs list.
