Ferrari F430 Scuderia by Novitech

The Ferrari F430 Scuderia is one car most people would have no problem in adding to my fantasy garage, the 510 horsepower supercar capable of doing 320km/h is more than sufficient to to satisfy most of our lusts. But should you wish for something a little extra why not enlist the help of specialist Ferrrari tuner Novitec Rosso who have just released their own tuning package boosting the engine up to a monstrous 717 horsepower bringing the top speed up to 348km/h and the 0-62mph time down to just 3.5 seconds.

The engine gets new belt driven twin-superchargers with a limited boost pressure of 0.48 bar, the heat insulated intake manifold have been redesigned to provide the engine with pre-compressed air and the it also gets two high performance air filters and eight larger injectors. The extra heat generated from the additional power is cooled with a higher capacity coolant system.

The subtle interior modifications include a new flat bottomed sports steering wheel featuring leather and carbon fibre materials as well as carbon-fibre shift paddles.

Gallardo Superleggera by Edo Competition

Following the tuned MurciƩlago LP 640, edo competition presents its second Lamborghini project with the Gallardo Superleggera.

Through high flow breathing components such as a massive air box and newly designed high flow catalytic converters plus a recalibrated engine control unit, the Gallardo SLE produces 30hp (22 kW) more to 560 hp (411 kW) at 8,250 rpm. Top speed is bumped up to about 6 km/h (4 mph) to 320 km/h (199 mph) and 0 – 100 km/h (62 mph) arrives in 3.7 seconds and 0 – 200 km/h (124 mph) in 11.7 seconds.

Also, 19-inch three piece racing wheels shod in stock-sized or 245/35 ZR 19 (F) 305/30 ZR 19 (R) Dunlop Sport Maxx tires plus 15mm lowered suspensions and smoked side turn signals round out the package, except for one last detail.

The exhaust system's sound volume can be adjusted at the press of a button via remote control. Check out the video above for demonstration.
