Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano

Novitec Rosso relies on mechanically supercharging the six-litre four-valve V12 engine of the F599 GTB with two compressors to boost both power and torque by more than 30% each.

Compared to the production engine, the Novitec Rosso Bi-Kompressor V12 gains 188 hp / 138.4 kW for a new maximum of 808hp / 594 kW at 7,800 rpm (+30.3 %, up from 620hp/7600 rpm) At the same time torque grows by 215 Nm to a new peak of 823 Nm at 6,300 rpm (+35.3%, up from 608 Nm/5600 rpm).

The tuned F599 sprints from rest to 100 km/h in 3.5 seconds.

In combination with the F1-Superfast transmission (its six speeds are faster and more precise to select thanks to longer Novitec Rosso carbon shift paddles), the tuned F599 sprints from rest to 100 km/h in 3.5 seconds.

200 km/h are reached after 9.7 seconds. The sprint time of 25.5 seconds from 0 - 300 km/h places the tuned two-seater among the fastest accelerating sports cars in the world, while top speed is more than 340 km/h.

The cogged-belt driven high-performance superchargers produce a maximum boost pressure of 0.39 bars, and are lubricated by their own dedicated oil circulation.

Superchargers produce a max boost pressure of 0.39 bars.

The pre-compressed air is then cooled down by a large intercooler that itself is cooled by a dedicated water cycle. A specially designed intake manifold with high-performance injectors and sport air filter round out the conversion on the intake side.

Additionally, Novitec Rosso installs custom exhaust manifolds calibrated to the twin compressors, with a stainless-steel quad sport exhaust system featuring a tailpipe diameter of 90 millimetres. The exhaust note can be adjusted using the "manettino" switch on the steering wheel, from "sporty yet discrete" to "definitely sounds like racing."

The Novitec Rosso engine management coordinates the interaction of all conversion components for maximum power yield and smooth running and longevity.

The Novitec Rosso Bi-Kompressor engine conversion is available for 46,900 Euros.

With the increased demands on aerodynamics, the Novitec Rosso designers went into the wind tunnel to develop aerodynamic-enhancement components to make the 599 more aerodynamically efficient.

The front spoiler lip is attached to the production bumper and reduces lift on the front axle. Its aerodynamic counterpart in the rear is the rear diffuser that can optionally be combined with a rear spoiler.

The Novitec Rosso rocker panels calm the airflow between the wheel houses and with their large air inlets optimise the supply of cooling air to the rear brakes.

All Novitec Rosso aerodynamic-enhancement components are also available in a clear-coat carbon-fibre version.

The exterior can be further refined with black side markers and black taillights as well as with LED auxiliary brake light and reversing light.

The extensive high-performance package for the 599 also includes custom-tailored Novitec Rosso NF3 light-alloy wheels with high-performance tires from Pirelli.

The three-piece wheels with five double spokes are one inch larger in diameter than the original ones. The front axle is fitted with size 9Jx20 rims and 275/30 ZR 20 tires. The rear wheels come in 12.5Jx21 with 355/25 ZR 21 tires.
