Ferrari 458 Italia Spider Perfetto by Wheelsandmore


Wheelsandmore has introduced a new tuning program for the Ferrari 458 Spider. Dubbed the Perfetto, the model has been equipped with carbon fiber mirrors and a carbon fiber rear diffuser. The interior, trunk and engine compartment can also be outfitted with the lightweight material to enable the car to weigh approximately 30 kg (66 lb) less than a standard model. If you're not interested in the weight savings, you'll be glad to know the Spider rides on a customizable set of 21-inch forged alloy wheels that are wrapped in Hankook S1Evo tires. Lastly, the 4.5-liter V8 engine has new manifolds, a sports exhaust system, a remapped ECU and a carbon fiber air box. This enables it to produce 647 PS (476 kW / 638 hp) and 635 Nm (468 lb-ft) of torque - an increase of 77 PS (57 kW / 76 hp) and 95 Nm (70 lb-ft) of torque.

Ferrari 458 Italia Carbon Edition by Anderson Germany



German tuner Anderson Germany has created this black and white Ferrari 458 Carbon Edition.
The tuner has carefully coated with carbon fiber the Ferrari's roof, hood, side-mirrors, door handles and the trunk lid with diffuser as well as trimming the tail lights with the material.
Then comes the carbon aero kit which includes a front lip spoiler, front bumper flaps, wider side-skirts, rear lip spoiler, engine air outlets, wind air intake grille and a front bumper ventilation grid.
Output also gets a bit of a boost to 623 PS (458 kW / 615 hp) over the series 570 PS (420 kW / 562 hp). The new exhaust system also comes with three sound stages adjusted by remote-control.
Finally, Anderson Germany adds new wheels to the Ferrari 458, with 9 x 21-inch rims at the front covered in 255/30-21 tires, and 12 x 22-inchers at the rear wrapped in tires sized 335/25-22.






Ferrari 458 Italia 'Milano' by DMC


German tuner DMC will be bringing its 458 Italia 'Milano' to the SEMA show this week.
Based on the Ferrari 458 Italia, DMC starts with a little engine tuning to squeeze a few more horses out of the 4.5 liter V8 unit. Output gets dialed up to 610 PS (449 kW / 602 hp) and 569 Nm (420 lb-ft) of torque compared to the series 570 PS (420 kW / 562 hp) and 540 Nm (398 lb-ft). Top speed is also slightly higher now at 330 km/h (205 mph) compared to the standard 325 km/h (202 mph).
DMC makes its body kits out of carbon fiber using laser scans of the car to replace original parts. The aero kit here includes front bumper wings, side skirts, rear diffuser and fog-lamp aprons. The mirror covers are also done in carbon fiber.
The 458 Italia 'Milano' features a stainless-steel exhaust system and a wheel set with 9J x 21-inch rims wrapped in VA 255/30ZR21 tires at the front and 12J X 22-inch rims at the back fitted with 335/25/ZR22 tires.
This being SEMA, a sound system package was also installed on the car, courtesy of Hollywood-based sound specialists Al & Ed.

OFFICIAL: DMC 458 Italia "Milano" on SEMA 2011

DMC Press Release:
Official Premier at the SEMA Motor Show 2011: DMC refines the Ferrari 458 Italia
German luxury tuner DMC celebrates the official premier of it's 458 Italia "Milano" at the SEMA Motorshow 2011, and it's a stunner.
While the engineers were able to come up with a beautiful body kit, it's no doubt that the engine make-over is the true star of this car. Creating 610 hp vs. the regular 570 from the 4,5 L V8 engine makes anybody forget that this is the smallest of Ferraris currently available. Torque was increased from 540 Nm to 569 Nm, giving you that extra push upon starting your journey. And betold journey may be over sooner than you think, because DMC's Italia is faster than 330 KM per hour, compared with the 325 km/h of the house stallion.
Supporting the increased performance are the carbon fiber parts presented in this kit: The wings located in the front bumper were re-engineered from visible carbon fiber, just as were the side skirts, the rear diffuser and the fog-light aprons. Most significant and certainly a unique signature of the kit is the pair of carbon fiber mirrors. They are, like all other components of this kit, molded stand-alone carbon fiber parts that exchange for the OEM items. Instead of using trims that cover OEM parts with a carbon layer, DMC's engineers went back to the drawing board and manufactured these items from ground up:
After a thorough 3D scan of the original parts, the design was improved in the computer using CAD solutions. The computer images were then CNC'ed into a negative mold of these parts, using industry quality steel. It is these molds that are used to bake carbon fiber in a vacuum environment in auto-clave production ovens. The result are weight-saving, extremely light carbon fiber parts.
The newly designed 458 Italia exhaust system is made from t309 grade stainless steel and has performance driven 4-2-1 headers, and valved exhaust. It comes with protective heat shields to protect the stallion from high temperatures and increase performance lost from 'heat soak'. The DMC heat shields also protect the vehicle in the case of leaking fluids igniting due to contact with the heat from an exhaust system. Compared with the original exhaust, DMC's solution shaves a whopping 19 KG off the car, making the car lighter and performance-driven.
A remote to manually keep the exhaust valves open is available optionally, in markets that allow for this solution.
To complete the optical package, DMC presents a combination of 21" and 22" rims (9Jx21 front / 12Jx22 rear) that are meant to control the newly added power and carbon lightness of the car. As for Pneus, DMC is offering VA 255/30 ZR 21 and HA 335/25 ZR22 respectively, rounding up a perfect styling package for the 458 Italia.
DMC's "Milano" Styling Kit is shown at SEMA booth No. 48146. We welcome you to see the car and enjoy the special sound package which was installed by Al&Ed, an audio sound specialist based in Hollywood.







Ferrari 458 Italia by Cam Shaft


Ferrari and chrome mix like oil and water, but Cam Shaft has managed to do the impossible - make it tasteful.

As you can see, the shiny material is applied to the roof, winglets and rear diffuser. Elsewhere, there's tinted taillights, black wheels and yellow brake calipers.

For added performance, the company offers a revised ECU which enables the 4.5-liter V8 engine to produce 588 PS (432 kW / 580 hp) and 562 Nm (414 lb-ft) of torque - a modest increase of 18 PS (13 kW / 18 hp) and 22 Nm (16 lb-ft).

Ferrari 458 Italia Zeus by SR Project


Project Zeus, as the Vancouver-based tuner calls it, involves adding a Novitec aerodynamic kit to the 458 which includes front lip spoiler, side skirts, rear skirts, rear lip spoiler and a gloss-black roof.

Also contributed from a European tuner is an Akropovic sport exhaust system which likely adds a horsepower or two to the 458 Italia, although SR Project doesn't say.

The tuner fits Forgiato Aguzzo (sharp forged) wheels to the 458 with 21-inchers at the front and 22-inch rims at the back.

Novitec also supplies the lowering springs for the suspension tuning.

Ferrari 458 Black Carbon Edition by Anderson Germany


Anderson Germany has unveiled a tuning program for the Ferrari 458 Italia.

On the design front, the car features a new hood, tinted windows, yellow brake calipers, and 21-inch alloy wheels with carbon fiber accents. Additionally, there's carbon fiber trim on the front canards, door mirrors and rear diffuser.

Inside, designers added Alcantara upholstery, carbon fiber trim and a high-end audio system.

While the 458 wasn't lacking in performance, the tuner installed a new exhaust system and an optimized ECU. This enables the 4.5-liter V8 to produce 623 PS (458 kW / 614 hp) and 636 Nm (469 lb-ft) of torque - an increase of 53 PS (40 kW / 52 hp) and 96 Nm (71 lb-ft).


Ferrari 458 Italia tuned into Mansory Siracusa


Tuner Mansory has brought the Siracusa to the Geneva auto show halls - based on the Ferrari 458 Italia.

Named after a town in Sicily and its historic race track, the Mansory Siracusa makes even more use of carbon than does original manufacturer Ferrari as all body components are now made out of that lightweight material.

Those include a front apron with air inlets for the front coolers, a new bonnet, and side skirts with integrated ducts to feed even more cooling air to the engine. At the back is a rear skirt with integrated diffuser and a rear wing. Carbon blades replace the rear window and the total tally on the weight-saving carbon is 70 kg (154 lbs) less curb weight for the 458 Italia.

Power upgrade takes the form of an ECU remap, sport air filer and sport exhaust - all good for 590 PS (434 kW / 582 bhp) and 560 Nm (413 lb-ft) of torque. 0 to 100 km/h takes place in 3.2 seconds and top speed is 330 km/h (205 mph).

For the suspension, Mansory fits four sport shock absorbers and progressively-wound lowering springs which lower the 458 by 20 mm. Wheels consist of 9 x 20-inch and 11 x 21-inch forged rims wrapped in Michelin PS2 tires, 245/35ZR20 and 305/30ZR21, front and rear, respectively.

Inside the cabin, the tuner applies top materials including leather, ultra-suede and carbon for the interior finish. That includes handiwork such as the decorative stitching, a newly designed center console, aluminum pedals, and a sport steering wheel with full-sized airbag.

Ferrari 458 Italia by Novitec Rosso

It was just last week Novitec Rosso showed us their Race 606 tuning package for the Ferrari California. Now in preparation for the Geneva Motor Show next week the German tuner of the prancing horse has revealed early their program for latest model from Maranello, the Ferrari 458 Italia.

Novitec Rosso has kept engine modifications basic for the brand new model. They've added a new carbon-fiber airbox, a high-performance exhaust system made from nickel-chromium-based superalloy Inconel, which weighs 21 kg (46 lbs) less, as well as sport exhaust manifolds, sport catalysts and a rear muffler with a sound control flap that can be activated by a button on the steering wheel. Lastly, a remapped engine management system for optimized ignition and injection was added resulting in an additional 39 PS (28.7 kW / 39 bhp) from the 4.5-liter V8 for a total of 609 PS (448 kW / 600 bhp) at 9,100 rpm. Simultaneously peak torque has grown from 540 Nm (398 lb-ft) to 569 Nm (420 lb-ft) at 5,400 rpm.

For a top speed in excess of 330 km/h (205 mph) Novitec Rosso fine-tuned the body components using the wind tunnel at the University of Stuttgart. Made of carbon fiber the aerodynamic-enhanced kit consists of a lower spoiler, right/left wing flaps and ventilation louvers attached to the original bumper fascia. Also in carbon fiber are the fenders, side skirts, carbon-fiber mirror housings, rear spoiler and diffuser. And last but not least the roof panel and engine hood are also made from carbon fiber.

Custom-tailored versions of the three-piece Novitec Rosso NF3 wheels were developed for the 458 Italia. Novitec Rosso chose a staggered combination of size 9Jx21 wheels in front and size 12Jx22 on the rear. Custom-manufactured Pirelli PZero tires are mounted in size 255/30 ZR 21 and 335/25 ZR 22 front to rear, respectively.

NOVITEC ROSSO sport springs lower the ride height of the Ferrari by 35 millimeters while the hydraulic front lift system can raise the front lip of the car by 40 millimeters to help clear speed bumps or parking garage ramps.
