Stetten,
Germany — When Novitech released the Ferrari F430 Bi-Compressor Evoluzione in 2007, it may not have made waves across the motoring world, but it was a favourite here at the Motoring Channel. The
Novitech tuning group took F430 and achieved the unthinkable by
augmenting the high revving 4.3-litre V8 engine with not one, but two
superchargers. Resulting in more power and hugely potent mid-range boost, the car was one-of-a-kind. But now there's another, even more powerful version - the Novitech Ferrari F430 Scuderia. Using
the more powerful track-developed Scuderia super car as the base
instead of the Ferrari F430, the new twin supercharged Italian exotic
is to die for. The low-slung Ferrari F430 Scuderia sports car normally outputs 380kW
(510hp) @ 8500rpm, which is a huge amount of power to start with and results in a zero to 100km/h sprint time of 3.8 seconds. But
the Ferrari F430 Scuderia tuned by the Novitech Rosso team screams from
zero to 100km/h in just 3.5 seconds thanks to its twin 'charged engine. Peak power rises from 380kW to 535kW (717hp), a staggering 155 kilowatt increase. The Novitech Ferrari's top
speed rises from 320km/h to 348km/h thanks to the increase in
power, which comes about via the following engine upgrades: Twin belt-driven superchargers
Redesigned intake manifold
Larger fuel injectors (x8)
High efficiency air filters (x2)
Upgraded cooling system
The twin superchargers develop 0.48 bar (7.0 psi) of pressure, enough to make this one of the fastest Italian cars on the road. Novitech's original Ferrari
F430 Bi-Compressor Evoluzione sported various body work and aerodynamic
aids to improve the vehicle's high speed stability, but with this
new model the German tuner hasn't had to change anything as the
F430 Scuderia already possesses a number of serious aero aids. There
have been some changes to the interior of the car, with a range of
carbon fibre trims and finishes, but overall it's the twin supercharged
Ferrari engine that makes this vehicle such a unique sports car. Related articles:
