Geneva 2010: Novitec Rosso Race 848
Novitec plan to release the Race 848 at the 2010 Geneva Auto Salon. Novitec have taken a 599 GTB and created an 848bhp monster as part of a limited production run of just three examples.
The power comes from a dual-compressor system, bolted to the 599’s six-liter V12 frame. Boost pressure for each of the compressors is electronically limited to 0.48 bars, yet this is still enough to yield gains over the production engine of 228bhp to a new figure of 848bhp at 7,900rpm. Torque grows as well by 234Nm to 842Nm at 6,300rpm.
It is not just the compressors that create the extra power though. Novitec have modified the cooling systems, installing a dedicated oil circuit for the compressors, a large water-to-air intercooler with its own dedicated water circuit as well as installing a custom-developed intake manifold, high-performance injectors and a sports air filter. Outside of cooling, there is high-performance headers custom-designed for this car and a stainless steel, adjustable sports exhaust to replace the standard unit. ECU management ensures optimum performance of all the components.

"We were never satisfied being status quo. We were never OK just getting by. We pushed and drove at everything we have done in our lives to succeed in spite of those around us that would hold us back and naysay us. We finally realized that we needed to make our own rules to do things better. 99% of the people in this world do not understand us and what drives us.
