This exceptional piece of machinery is only limited to 5 exotic greatness.
Oakley design did exhaustive testing on the cars’ aerodynamics together with their modifications. The tuning company claims that with their improvement down force produced at the front end is dramatically increased by 100 lbs with the rear receiving 55 lbs and this is achieved at speeds of 150 mph.
The exotic car also received carbon fiber trims on its mirror cover, roof and engine cover. The exhaust installed is a three-piece titanium pipe which they removed the bypass valve to shed off weight. Finishing off the Ferrari italia 458 is a sleek 20” OZ Style Racing wheels with Trofeo tires from Pirelli.
Their grand master piece was also given a new air intake box and a remapped ECU increasing the madness out of its engine to 627 bhp with 418 lb ft of torque. These can blast from 0-62 mph in just 3.0 sec which is 0.04 sec lesser than the base Italia 458.
