Ehh......3.6L V8 twin turbo and only 512rwhp?? Not real impressive by today's standards, escpecially considering how much that kit must cost.
F430 as an example runs high 11's at only 500 engine hp =)
Haha, that isn't too slow =)

...but didn't know Modena could be modded with aftermarket turbo...
It's a car. Any car can be modified. Ferraris have had tuners since the 80s.

I dunno. most people who buy Modena's don't do so to drag race. If you want a $200K drag racer, I'd imagine a vetter or viper would be better suited.

Well when someone above mentioned that isn't impressive by today's standards... my response to hp / was that should be fast enough is all.
Besides that, F430 Coupe can be had at 250k
And the Modena's aren't too much more expensive than the M5/M6's... =)

What amazes me is that the stock 360(or atleast the one on the dyno) is 341rwhp.
I have seen other dyno's of 360's with 325+ HP. So IMHO that means that Ferrari really is overrating their engines.

That's about 600 hp at the engine. That's not bad at all. Especially for a high revving 3.6L V8. Even looking at modified engines with nearly twice that displacement and "regular" boost levels they are putting out less. Also, these are Ferrari owners. They are probably looking for reliability & everyday drivability vs. all out hp. Read where they are getting this on a relitively mild 5-6 psi boost level. Looking at kits such as ATI Procharger on the new 6.0 L C6 and they are looking at about this level, or the C5 Z06 Vortech units and they are about high 400's (540 at the engine) at these boost levels.
And Ferraris are in the "If you have to ask, you can't afford it category" in terms of mod prices & cars. I'm sure guys that are buying these cars & modding them, are not worried about it like you & I would be.
