2008 Ferrari F430 Bi-Compressor Evoluzione by Novitec


Not content with its previous 636hp twin-supercharged F430, German tuner and Ferrari specialist Novitec has now upgraded the car to “Evoluzione” spec. Power is up by an additional 20hp, giving it an Enzo rivalling 656hp and decimating the standard F430 which makes do with 490hp.
For the extra power, engineers upgraded the twin Rotrex superchargers, which increased the pressure of air being fed to the engine. Finally, the engine’s electronic management system was tweaked with a Motronics ECU and a wind-tunnel tested aerodynamic package with a new rear-spoiler was added. Acceleration figures remain much the same as the previous version, with the 0-100km/h coming up in just 3.7 seconds while top speed remains at 348km/h.
Other features of the package include a separated oil-circuit, a heat insulated induction tract, water-cooled intercoolers with water pumps and additional radiators, upgraded fuel injectors and reinforced drive belts with dynamic tensioners. Follow the jump for more images.

Its hot but i would like to have it in either red, yellow or orange plz...always loved the sensual look of an F430...would never be able to decide between a Gallardo or F430 but novitech makes it a little easier..

but surprisingly the 0-62mph time is very slow for this much power..may be they need a better launch control mechanism..

Power has nothin to do with traction. They may have increased the bhp, but unless you can find a way to put that power down, you're not gonna see any improvement in your launch acc.

A 0-100 or 0-150mph comparo would make lot more sense.

I know that already but F430 shouldnt be out of traction, its not some ricer with turbos on, its a sports car which should have been setup to put atleast this amount of power down, I cant imagine that F430's rubber and drivetrain cant handle 650hp of power.

I am sure a better driver a better launch control can launch this car in 3.2-3.4 sec range but i agree 0-100 and 0-150 mph should be a std in the industry when measuring true capability cuz now a days even regular cars can be in the 4.5 sec range but a true supercar shines in the higher speeds and especially from a roll so, 10-100 or 30-150 etc..
