    In the old days this was described as Pinking usually caused by weak mixture and/or ignition timing, you need to get the engine on a proper diagnostic scanner.

    Did you use good quality lambda sensors?
    As above, it needs putting onto a diagnostics and doing live running.

    Fiat specifies P1171 as "Lambda 1 mixt. strength below cat"

    -25 trim if memory serves right means the ECU is pulling the fuelling back as its running rich!

    Has it been remapped? I would check Injectors and see what each of those are doing
