Yessir, gangnam-gu, seoul. how'd ya know...hanguk-bun yi seh yo?

Thanks for the kind comments guys, means a lot to me. Not many people want to do things to their ferraris around here but hell, I bought it to drive it and I feel that she deserves some presents..or should i say ''make-up'' for making me smile when pressing the gas

I want the twin supercharger that Novitec Rosso has, but they don't have it for the spider ...what do you guys think. Keep as is and get a single supercharger or, someone else tried telling me to do a custom turbo setup.

I noticed from your license plate, but I speak a little Korean also. But I don't know what "bun" is, which is kind of important for that sentence. I'm 100% white and have trouble reading Korean in English letters.

I am not sure I would boost the F430. Have you done intake/exhaust/software from Novitec yet? Looks like you have Tubi now.

I'm sure Novitec do the twin supercharger for the spider. GMG has done it for a guy on this forum. That thing pulls like crazy..

gangnam-gu.... nice place.... that's where a lot of the playas live these days. Man, I miss seoul! craziness! My uncle lives in Sungbukdong.

Im surprised the Novitec is not available for the spider? Is it b/c of the rear hatch getting in the way?

Capristo Straight Pipes and Capristo Race exhaust is what you have to do next.

^ ha, that should have been easy.

I can communicate okay in person but I don't dare try on the forum.. I'll f*ck it up or spell something so wrong you can't understand.

But as answered above, I am not. But the majority of my friends are and I enjoy Seoul very much! I stayed at the Walker-Hill for a week in August. Reckless Auto down the street had a nice collection.

Nice! Yes, Reckless Auto does have a nice collection. Next time you visit Seoul, let me know here and I'll give you a lil tour. I'm still young in my early 20's so I like to have some fun.

BCS996TT- I'm guessing you are Korean as well? Sungbukdong is a nice place as well and know a couple cars there. Unfortunately, when I contacted Novitec, they said that 2 techs would fly out and install it no problem until they realized that I had a spider and it wouldn't be possible, and yea I'm guessing its because of the hatch.

dsu*- Is GMG in the states? if so I really don't want to ship the car out there.

WyattH- Novitec provides everything in the power stage 2 kit (Carbon Airbox including two sport air filters as well as ECU chipped to rev up to 8,850 rpm, and their 100 Zeller cats. The exhaust is Tubi though. I bought the Tubi exhausts for the 430 and LP640 at the same time. Which at the time, I didn't think I was going to do more to the F430...boy was I wrong.

I DID however find a twin supercharger for the spider. Here is what Novitec sent:
NOVITEC SUPERSPORT Bi-compressor (including Spider) F1 430 01
including 2 supercharger with modified turbine-blades and separated oil-circuit, modified and enlarged induction tract complete heat-insulated, watercooled intercoolers with additional watercoolers, pumps, reinforced v-ripped belts, injectors, air tract duct in underbody as well as modified ECU‘s. Switching of the flap-regulation at the Manettino in the steering wheel

performance: 656 hp @ 8,200 rpm
max. torque: 662 Nm @ 6,100 rpm
max. boost: 0.38 bar
Top Speed: 348 km

I left a note for santa to come thru the garage this year

The 707hp one is the one that is not available for the spider... O well, maybe a water/methonal injection might get me a couple extra hp...Or I'll have to lighten up the body as a friend of mine has a red coupe with the 700+ hp kit.
