    A guess: Some kind of turbulence management add-on to reduce unwanted pressure drop in the manifold.

    Did anyone happen to notice these words from that article- to all the haters..........

    "There is one more thing I want to talk, trying not to say too many stupid things because I know it will warm me. While the Internet is supposed to be a haunt of techies and people on the lookout for novelty (that is the idea that I do), I find it surprisingly conservative, even reactionary. Obviously, everyone is free to express his opinion. Of course, these views are necessarily varied and contrasting. Trollent trolls, this is the game hate hate, no worries, it is their quality of life suffers. What annoys me, they are unfounded comparisons with BMW Z4 or Citroen C5. As if a brand like Ferrari could consider a second to learn from this kind of car to find his style. The idea is simply ridiculous. What I find disappointing, they are fans of the brand that consistently repeated that it was better before each new model. Ferrari goes ahead, and chose not to restyle the same model as some competitors since 1964. It is this constant questioning its strength. The abandonment of the gear lever in its chrome grille? Sad but necessary, it is the symbol of a bygone era, like the spoke wheels. I hear of loss of class and elegance. For me, the essence of Ferrari, it's running, sportiness and performance. Those seeking class and elegance in Maranello have a place can be deceived. If the Internet had existed when we moved from Daytona to BB, no doubt we would read the same regret, and the Testarossa, ugh, what a ridiculous vulgarity with these streaks on the side and the back square."

    I.e., reduce back pressure.

    crinoid- You got it. We sometimes use similar chambers in rocket motor combustion chambers to stop unwanted affects.

    These detail photos show without a doubt how serious Ferrari's commitment to "technology" and "engineering" is, for all the Mac dorks who still ape Dennis' technology and engineering chatter......


    Forza,

    I primarily use Chrome but I recently switched to Firefox when on FChat because of the bbcode tools that make it much easier to do pretty posts.

    Now that I think about it there is probably a Firefox add-in for translating.

    Oh well, not that hard to just open the link in Chrome as you suggest. Certainly the end result is more than worth the effort!

    Nicolas, top pictures as always. Thanks for sharing.

    Hope to see you around one of the tracks this year. Would love to see some of your pics of my 458C in action. Any plans of coming to the FOD's in Spa on June 11th and 12th?
