Novitec is a very well known Ferrari modder.

Saw their info like a year or 2 ago.

people who can afford a Scuderia can afford this SC without breakin' a sweat.

$90,000 to get 0.2 seconds better on a 0-60?

and I mean this is $90,000 .. the Scuderria is like $280,000 .. $90k is like 1/3 the price of the car ... but some ppl are just fortunate..

Again, ppl who can afford a Scuderia not gonna give a crap about the 90K lol

To us, most of us, 90K is a lot of money.

To those people, its like a dime in our wallet.

Life isn't fair

$90,000 and the parts only come with a ONE YEAR warranty? For that amount of money I'd warranty the parts for LIFE! Talk about not standing behind your products. That's just my opinion.

90.000$ is 1\3 of the car's price... the 8\9000$ necessary to get a powerful turbo kit installed and tuned for the rx8 aren't much far away...
I agree that life isn't fair though

yeah just about every FI kit, "done right" supporting mods, and installed by professionals will be a third of the cost of an RX8,,,, No difference what-so-ever, like NYCgps mentioned probably actually less of a deal to throw one on for someone who can afford a scuderia...
And BHR, Pettit, and other co.s make regular trips around the country installing FI kits, again no big deal,,,

Exactly. A GOOD product with professional installation, support you could assume would be $40K. Then double it cause it's a Fing ferrari 430 scudaria.

And dont be surprised....this is selling to people who paid an extra $80,000 off the bat because the 'regular' 430 wasnt quite fast wnough and had too much carpeting lol....

Boy I want to be uber rich....

I like how they advertise a 0-60 time which is identical to what independent magazines/websites have achieved with the stock scuderia.
