STUTTGART, GERMANY: NOVITEC ROSSO PERFORMANCE IS PROVEN IN THE WIND TUNNEL
The wind tunnel at the Research Institute for Motor Vehicles in Stuttgart is used for testing and development by vehicle manufacturers. It is a rarity to find automotive tuners that utilize this type of testing, unless the tuner is imported by CEC.
NOVITEC Rosso recently qualified their aerodynamics package for the Ferrari F360 at the institute's state-of-the-art wind tunnel. Each component was tested numerous times individually and in combination with each other.
The results derived from simulating a velocity of 140 km/h achieved a negative lift force due to NOVITEC Rosso's expertly engineered aerodynamic parts. NOVITEC's front spoiler supplied 5.1 kg down force to the front axle, with a .35 coefficient drag.
The complete aerodynamic package including front bumper, rear diffuser, side skirts and rear wing optimizes NOVITEC's F360 to 9.9 kg negative lift at the front axle and 34.3 kg to the rear, confirming that NOVITEC's tuning for Ferrari offers incredible aesthetics proven performance, resulting in increased safety and driveability at high speeds.

actually,
Most German tuners use some form of wind tunnel testing to determine downforce, This is required by TUV, The NOVITEC body work is top notch, its not easy to make a body kit look good on a 360
