Novitec Enhances Ferrari Daytona SP3 with Power and Refinement

Novitec, a renowned German tuning firm, has unveiled a comprehensive enhancement program for the Ferrari Daytona SP3, adding a performance boost and bespoke customization options to the limited-production Icona series hypercar. The program centers around a meticulously calibrated exhaust system and new forged wheels, while preserving the vehicle’s original design aesthetic.

The Heart of the Upgrade: Enhanced Exhaust System

The core of Novitec’s upgrade is a high-performance exhaust system, complete with metal catalysts and full thermal insulation. This system optimizes exhaust gas flow and reduces back pressure, resulting in an increase of 28 horsepower, bringing the total output of the 6.5-liter F140HC V12 engine to 868 hp [Novitec], [Carscoops]. The exhaust also features electronically controlled sound management, allowing drivers to adjust the exhaust note from a subtle tone to a more aggressive, race-inspired wail [Zero2Turbo].

For owners seeking the ultimate in exclusivity, Novitec offers an optional 999 fine gold-plating for the entire exhaust system, further optimizing heat dissipation [Novitec]. Importantly, the exhaust system maintains the factory tailpipe design, preserving the car’s original rear-end styling.

Wheels and Interior Refinement

Novitec collaborated with American wheel manufacturer Vossen to develop three exclusive designs of high-tech forged wheels specifically for the Daytona SP3. The staggered setup features 20-inch wheels at the front (9.5Jx20 with 265/30 ZR20 tires) and 21-inch wheels at the rear (12.5Jx21 with 345/30 ZR21 tires), enhancing the car’s stance [Novitec], [Carscoops].

Inside the cabin, Novitec offers complete customization options, allowing owners to personalize the interior with premium leather and Alcantara in any desired color combination [Novitec].
