Old post but I just read the article re Novitec’s power boost upgrade :

“ Novitec increases the output by 80 hp (60 kW) and 64 lb-ft (88 Nm), bringing the total to 711 hp (523 kW) and 603 lb-ft (818 Nm). The extra oomph cuts 0.1 seconds off its 0-62 time, dropping it to 2.8 seconds. The supercar’s top speed also increases from 201 mph (323 kph) to more than 202 mph (325 kph). “

Seriously ?! Even if all you do is race the car competitively, getting that extra 0.1 sec. off the line ( which can easily be offset by a non-professional driver ) and the ( laughable ) 1 more mph at the top speed is hardly worth the expense, IMO . Why bother ? Bragging rights that you have 711 hp..which make almost no difference ..? 😕

I agree. But, surely all that extra power must translate to a bigger difference in performance. Seems like Novitec is being overly conservative about figures.

That‘s what I would have expected also .. maybe the mid range acceleration is where the extra power makes a bigger difference; say, peak torque kicking in at a lower rpm range than stock and sustained a little longer .. but advertising the negligible 1/10 of a second and a 1 mph difference was just useless IMO .. now, the Novitech supercharger they had for the Granturismo was impressive, but that was an expensive set up, I suspect this “tune up“ mod is not nearly as much ..
