  • D2Forged Ferrari F430 Scuderia MB1

    D2Forged-Ferrari-F430-Scuderia-MB1-THUMBD2Forged Ferrari F430 Scuderia MB1 is the ultimate sportscar which will take your breath away and you’ll get all warm and fuzzy at the sight and sound of it. It is equipped in a 4.3L V8 petrol engine, which has a powerful output.

    In particular, its powerful unit generates 483 hp (360 kW) at 8500 rpm and has 465 Nm (343 lb-ft) of torque at 5250 rpm. The Scuderia has a top speed of 196 mph (315 km/h) and can effortlessly accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in only 4.0 seconds

    The tuned Ferrari model is equipped with OEM+ spec of the wheels – nothing overly aggressive, with fender rolling and tire stretch. In other words the weight is lighter but the tire contact patch is bigger and this only means an improved performance.

    D2Forged MB1 Monoblock Forged Wheel in Titanium Graphite in sizes 19×8.5 / 20×11 inch was the perfect choice therefore. They were complemented ideally with the Michellin Super Sport tires.

    Four and a half liter V8 delivers 570 horse powers at 9000 revs and 540 N/m at 6000 rpm. This makes the incredible 127 hp/liter from naturally aspirated engine.

    Despite the fact that the new engine is significantly more powerful than the V8s that preceded it, the Ferrari 458 Italia produces just 320 g/km of CO2 and fuel consumption is 13.7 l/100 km (combined cycle), the best in the entire segment.

    The 458 Italia compared to other super sports cars is a featherweight – 1380 kg with a power-to-weight ratio of 2.42 kg/hp and the results are more than exceptional: 0-100 km/h in under 3.4 seconds top speed of 325 km/h.

    The low weight of the car helps a lot with the braking, 32.5 metres 100-0
