I'm curious to know if the remote start feature allows for easier theft of the vehicle because the transmitter is left in the car? thanks for your response.
Theoretically yes and also any fob transmitter is potentially subject to relay attack. But, I've never heard of anyone getting their Maserati stolen this way. Keep in mind Maserati engineers have designed multiple layers of security into the car, most of which remain intact. I always ask people: Are you more likely to have your car stolen or lose your key, in which case you'll need to pay the dealer $1500 to replace.
My question is if you lose one of these key fobs, how easy it it to replace? @maseratimods
I have a 10 Quattroporte. How would the push start integrate or can it not be used?
Yes, this system works in 2010 QP
Purchase this kit and other body, digital and performance mods at MaseratiMods.com
I have the whole kit on mine nice salute
Hi Curious also if this works with 2018s
😍😍 Looks absolutely amazing, I’ve been searching everywhere for a rear diffuser and finally found it thank you
Next is the springs 👍🏻
Look better
Hello is this hard to install?
This is an easy mod but plan for 2-3 hours.
@rettsummerville4573 ok I just brought a 2011 granturismo from auction it only had the valet key with no alarm pad.. the car runs drives.... will my set up work with your product?
You need the circuit board from the factory key fob (blue with flip key). Do you have that? If so, then yes.
@rettsummerville4573 I'm located near Charlotte in north carolina do you know where I could get a key made on a budget?
Hi, does this setup work with a 2018 GT?
I just brought a granturismo. I'm in North carolina , waiting for the delivery
Congratulations! What year and color?
@rettsummerville4573 2011, its black has rims, forgiatos rims convertible
@@19lol19nice spec. When you’re ready to modernize it check out our radio, keyless start and carbon fiber at maseratimods.com.
Thank you for such a well done detailed instructions. I have this same system and having some issues installing it. Wondering if possibly we can chat?
Sure! Hit me up maseratimods.com/pages/contact
Would be nice to see it on a dyno before and after!
Agreed but didn’t have easy access to one. Hopefully this stills gives you a sense. Personally the butt-in-seat data was most compelling. This thing really works!

Did it change how the car handles or rides? Thanks. Looks better for sire
No handling difference at all.
Great video and appreciate the time and effort you put into showing how to install. I really feel they fell short when they made the product. I feel more people would purchase if it was packaged with a plug-in harness adapter for the wiring and bluetooth app for the toggle switches.

every thing Ive read says spacers are a bad idea.... not sure if it voids any warranties ?
I haven't heard of anyone having issues with these types of moderate spacers, especially on Maseratis which have a strong wheel bearing. The really big ones like 50mm + might be a problem.

hey there my Granturismo for some reason needs to double press the unlock key twice to unlock the passenger side door lock where as if I only press once it will only unlock the driver side, will this be a problem for this installation?
That shouldn’t be a problem. With our keyless systems, you press and hold the unlock button for two seconds to send the signal to unlock the passenger door.
@@maseratimods But will the keyless function work for the passenger side or do I have to manually take out the key fob to press the button to unlock the passenger door still like I am used to now?
@@dns15r I don't think the passive unlock feature can unlock the passenger side, you either push the unlock button under the A/C console inside the car or hold the fob button.
So it's not a fix then, you're simply respraying it. This is no good for pictoral buttons whatsoever. It'll also be soft underneath the paint so the end result won't be good ;)
It's an experiment to save time. The idea is that the SEM paint, which is specifically formulated for plastic, will encapsulate the remaining sticky and prevent or reduce further degradation. Time will tell if it works. So far, it is working...no softness or sticky.
Does the key cylinder still need to be removed for the dash mounted button? If so, is there a plug or cover plate that will be provided to give that area a finished appearance? Thanks!
You don't have to remove the key cylinder but it will not function, so I prefer to plug the hole. The kit includes a plug for the ignition hole. Can't paste a picture here but you can see it at maseratimods.com/products/keyless-remote-start
@@maseratimods Awesome, thank you!
Update your Maserati with a push button start which comes with our Keyless Remote Start System on sale at maseratimods.com.
This is going to be my first mod 👍🏽
One thing about my GT, every button on the left is also obscured by the wheel and paddles, not just the keyhole.
Great tutorial. The box for the old key circuit board just emulates the remote unlock/lock I take it.
Yes that's correct
My fear is that probably the car would be easier to steal with this sistem?
@@leonardococo2657 The car retains its alarm system. If yours has ever gone off you know how piercing loud it is! But realistically any car can be stolen very quickly these days. Have you seen the video of the ferrari lock picked and theft in under 1 minute? Weight the risk -- are you more likely to lose your only car key which costs $1500 to replace or get your car stolen?
@@maseratimods Oh God don't say that.....1 minute? Another question. In the event of a power drain does the system remain armed/immobilized or is it off?
@@ColinClarke-pb8ee If the car battery drains, the car remains in whatever state it was in locked/unlocked. Our upgrade fobs come with a key spare your local locksmith can cut so you can manually unlock the door in event the car or fob battery drains. The fob battery needs to be replaced about once a year and the signal will slowly weaken giving you a couple weeks lead time to replace it.
I do hate the stickiness. All 2000-2010 era designed cars seem to differ in solutions. I had a Merc that you could just scrap off the sticky stuff. I have tried acetone on the GT without much luck, isopropyl is also slow to work. I will try your approach next.
I use a mix of acetone and ethanol The more acetone, the more aggressive it is but be warned it is highly combustible
Certainly an option but time consuming especially on the parts that have a thick layer of sticky.
There’s a product sold here in California. Its called Dirtex. Sold at Home Depot. Cleans windows….kinda of a general cleaner. Used it on a couple buttons in my Maserati GT…and boy!!!! Did the job in seconds. And leaves mo mess…no need for re paint…and it doesn’t ruin the graphics on the burtons
Thanks! I'll check if we have that in NC
Thank you for this tip. I see there are 2 types of Dirtex cleaners, one's says for windows, glass & ect..the other one is in powder form and says for general purpose cleaning and doesn't mention that it's for glass. Which one did you use please? I'm anxious to get rid of sticky.
You definitely want to use the glass cleaner one….what blew my mind was….it cleans the sticky stuff without removing lettering or anything else….and its not harmful. Super cheap and effective. Good luck
@@HISVOICE4LIFE Thank you for your quick response! I'll come back here and post my results. I can't wait for no more sticky buttons!
Does it works with 2018/2019 models
Yes!
It’s amazing!!!
Any idea what would cause the key to not unlock the door? The proximity works and the push button does start the car, but when you try to unlock or lock the door with the fob it doesn’t work.
Is this a new issue or have the lock/unlock buttons never worked on your new fob?
They’ve never worked on the new fob. Just got it installed and everything works but the lock and unlock buttons.
the remote start works it just won’t lock/ unlock the door or open the trunk
I’ve gone through all the related circuits it’s not the car
The lock and unlock buttons on the dash stopped working too after install so don’t know how that happened haha.
How about for a gran sport 05
Yes, I’ve recently added a GranSport option. Can purchase here. maseratimods.com/products/fuel-filler-seal-plate?variant=45688806015191
we don't have the rubber flange on pumps in the UK but I still have the same problem. Any suggestions?
If the pump only has a spout with no rubber boot touching the car fuel port, and you're having pump cut-off issues then you might have a problem with the car's evap system, i.e., the charcoal canister filter is failing or clogged. Take a video next time you fill up and send to me at maseratimods@gmail.com and I'll be happy to provide more feedback.
Is it also available for RHD models?
Yes this unit works with both RHD and LHD. You re-use the factory sport/ice/etc buttons and face plate.
Subjectively, there is still one thing, Your GT project is only missing the larger original 20-inch Maserati Neptune rims, 'or check out 'interesting to consider', 1221wheels - 1551 AP3LX APEX3.0' but with the Maserati logo in the center or any other 20/21-inch model you prefer the most for this Maserati design reaches its full visual potential. The secret is in the wheels inch :D ..and it won't affect the comfort, with 20ies of course!
I have a 2013 Maserati Gran Turismo I have a pedal responder online the product that you advertising. It seems like it doesn’t do anything different than my pedal responder if that’s not true let me know.
Not sure what pedal responder you have but if you are happy with it then great! I trust FD's system because they are reputable experts in Maserati and Ferrari.
I would like to know before I purchase this product how much horsepower in torque does it add to the car and also does it increase the top speed?
It does not claim to increase torque or HP but in my experience shared in the video it seems to give a 15-20% boost. But, this is just my butt-in-seat data.
@@maseratimods I agree with Rett. I just installed mine and wow what a difference! Almost dangerous at first until you get used to the quick response to driver inputs. It says it doesn't increase horsepower, but like Rett says, you definitely feel that there's a lot more power, even if there isn't. I highly recommend this upgrade. The car is even more fun to drive if you can imagine that.
Does it increase top speed?
It does not claim to increase top-end speed. Only responsiveness,
Hmmm. Is a Maserati GT sport owner I feel that Maserati did a great job in terms of sport mode respons the problem is top speed, horsepower and torque. In my opinion any device that does not drastically improve those areas is a waste of time.
@@endshadow7066 I agree the factory sport mode setting was done well. But if you wanna be able to GO when you push the pedal down without a delay and the drama, esp in touring mode, the drive-by wire enhancement module absolutely works. Plus it makes the sport mode even more aggressive. In the Maserati community I really haven’t heard of anyone that installed this who didn’t love it. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Formula dynamics makes a ECM tune that increases BHP and torque, but only moderately.

Has ur Maserati gran turismo been reliable ?
Yes, totally. Never had any issues. So far, I've been able to do all maintenance myself. Actually not a difficult car to work on.
Whenever I drive my 2013 Gran Turismo in sport mode using the shift function I noticed that if I drive a little to sedate, and have the RPMs low between shifts I get a little bit of knocking and pinging before the engine picks up... This only happens if I use moderate throttle, but because I like to hear the exhaust sometimes I use this mode while just driving around fairly normally. My guess is that in sport mode the timing is advanced slightly and since I can only get 91 octane fuel it just isn't a good combination for driving around rather slowly to hear the exhaust... I plan on installing one of the BMW exhaust solenoids and a switch so I can simply listen to the exhaust in normal factory driving mode. To be honest however I don't drive quickly, I don't really need any sportiness, as I daily drive my Gran Turismo. I typically get between 21 and 22 mi per gallon average!
