A German Spin on Ferrari’s 599



If the stock 620 hp isn’t enough in your 599 GTB Fiorano, then you might want to visit a Novitec Rosso dealer to give your prancing horse a healthy boost in performance.

The German Ferrari-tuning firm has released a Bi-Kompressor kit for the 599’s 6.0-liter V12, boosting power to 808 hp and raising peak torque from 448 lb-ft to 607 lb-ft. Upgraded injectors, intake, a custom ECU and exhaust manifolds for the dual-superchargers and a stainless-steel exhaust system complete the output improvements.

The result is a 599 that can hit 62 mph in 3.5 seconds and has a top speed of more 211 mph, according to Novitec Rosso. The engine conversion is available for about $60,000.

For those interested in enhancing handling, Novitec Rosso has developed an improved adjustable sport suspension with lift feature and aero parts that include a front lip and rear spoiler to up downforce and a rear diffuser and rocker panels to smooth air flow. A three-piece alloy wheel package wrapped with 275/30R-20 front and 355/25R-21 rear Pirelli tires increase grip, while an available high-performance brake kit with six-piston calipers on all four corners, developed jointly with Brembo, maximize stopping potential.

Novitec Rosso also offers a full range of interior modifications for the 599, from sport steering wheels and aluminum pedal sets to full-fledged customized interiors.
