Ferrari tuning specialists from Novitec Rosso are back in our attention with an exquisite aftermarket program for the Ferrari 458 Spider, featuring improvements in both power and looks. We’ll start with the part we like best – the engine. The stock 570 HP 4.5-liter V8 motor has been upgraded in such a way that now delivers 609 HP (448 kW) at a stunning 9,100 RPM and an impressive torque of 569 Nm at 5,400 RPM.
This was achieved thanks to the completely new exhaust system made from Inconel, a material currently used in Formula 1, and a new, carbon fiber air box. The exhaust packs sport catalysts, rear muffler and two high performance manifolds. The tuning company has also worked on the car’s ECU. Regarding performance, the naught to 62 mph acceleration time hasn’t yet been mentioned, but we do know that it reaches a top speed of 325 km/h.
All these aforementioned stallions co-work with 21- and 22-inch light alloy wheels. Assisted by a new, hydraulic suspension system, the controls have been bettered a bit, also allowing the owner to lift it for up to 40 mm or lower it for 35 mm.
In terms of looks, the vehicle now sports a body kit designed in the wind tunnels of the University of Stuttgart. It includes a brand new front spoiler, rear diffuser, rear wing and carbon fiber side skirts. There’s also a few more carbon fiber present in the trims and ornaments all over. Same story goes on inside, with the stock ornaments and trims being replaced by brand new, carbon fiber ones.
Although we have no idea yet about the price of the package, we can say it’s quite a costly beast.
