More than anything

Romeo Ferraris’ engineers focused first of all on motor – the 3.8 boxer 6 cylinder – updated in different components such as electronics, larger turbines, exhaust and downpipe, new intercooler and carbon fiber intake system. Thus the aforementioned ones are reached 880 CV and 1,030 Nm of torquean increase of 230 hp and 230 Nm respectively compared to the standard Porsche 911 Turbo S. The performance data speaks for itself: maximum speed over 340 km/h and 0-100 km/h covered in just 2.5″.

All this is accompanied by changes to the structurewhich on Romeo Ferraris’ Velos kit features 4-way springs and shock absorbers adjustable in rebound and compression, with stainless steel uprights. Finally, Michelin Sport Cup 2 tires are included as standard, fitting rims with an exclusive design.
