    I didn't try this spectacular car..but I have experience with Novitec for my 812 SF..
    the exhaust provide much of drone.. can't drive in street...
    the spring so firm..

    Not worth it.. keep your car original..

    Good to hear real world feedback.

    I've seen the Novitec videos on the 812. They sound absolutely superb. But they never mention the everyday drone that one must put up with - thanks for highlighting this.

    This is what I have on my 2019 Portofino: Tubi mufflers,Kline x-pipe,Capristo controller,VR Tuning performance flash with stop/start deleted,and Novitec/Eiback springs. I have enjoyed this setup for many thousands of miles and would never go back to stock.

    I had Novitec Lowering Springs and Spacers on my previous Portofino M. I loved the stance and ride quality. The car was flatter during turn in and still compliant when using the bumpy road mode. Boosting the power and adding some carbon would also increase the car's "aggression." Quite frankly, additional HP for public roads is not required. The car is already very quick/fast with its stock 620 HP.

    In the US,the car maker has to show that the mod caused the problem. Different in many other countries.

    I have heard that the exhaust valve switch causes problems in motormanagement. Its the same serialnumber as they use on the roma. They know it causes errors and still sell it. Anyone aware of this? On the roma there are no problems.
