More fun than the Ferrari 488 GTB: 458 Italia Hennessey TwinTurbo

Before the introduction of the Ferrari California T and the 488 GTB it wasn't possible to order a biturbo supercar at Ferrari. The last time Ferrari built a biturbo engine was for the F40. Those who were still looking for a biturbo Ferrari had to pay a visit to a tuning company. Hennessey is specialized in installing turbos on exotic cars. In Greenwhich such a beastlike car was recently spotted!

Hennessey Performance Engineering is known for the Venom GT. A Lotus Exige look a like supercar that can reach a top speed over 400 kph. Next to that, owners of American and European sports and exotic cars can visit Hennessey for a power boost. The HPE700 is their twinturbo kit for the Ferrari 458 Italia. Next to that, the power is boosted from 570 to 700 hp. That's more than the power of a standard 488 GTB which produces 'only' 670 hp. With the extra power the Ferrari sprints from zero to 100 kph in just 2.8 seconds, which is also faster than the 488 GTB. Most important is the sound of the 458 Italia which is definitely improved. Hennessey believes in the quality of their produces and gives you a 1-year warranty or 12.000 miles. The performance of this beast is just incredible, just like the looks that definitely match the performance of the car!
