So far the performance is good, I have assembled a group 4.44, with 25% locking.
You do not hear any strange noise, the car is fully lined, and I can vary the toe and convergence to my liking.
The only problem that I have, are the springs, which are too hard, I'm waiting for a manufacturer that I will make them as for this type of suspension.

Very nice. All those parts laid out on the ground should be your advertising photo for a kit that you're planning to market to forum members. Grin

Hello, I'm working with the springs of the rear suspension, especially with the height of the car, since hardness think that I've found good point.
I think the current height of the car is a little low, I looked different abarth 131 photos and there anyway, high, low, normal ...
Leave a picture here to give me opinions, thanks.

Too low. For my liking anyway. As far as i can see you have used the shock absorbers from Ritmo/Strada. What springs are you using? The Original 131 springs should be sufficient, but then you'd have to remove the Original spring seat. Differs about 18 cm's, as far as i can recall.
