by AllAutoExperts | 2 December, 2015
Apparently it takes a Ferrari to beat a Ferrari. At least that is what the guys at xXx Performance believed when they decided to fine-tune this Ferrari 488 GTB to produce more than 1,000 horsepower and to make it a true rival for the LaFerrari.
The tuned 488 GTB was revealed during Essen Motor Show, the European version of the American SEMA show, where the best tuners present their best creations.
In order to achieve such power out of the stock 3.9-liter twin-turbo V8, the tuners added a 3 stage upgrade. Stage 1 takes the horses to 740 hp and 612 lb-ft of torque, Stage 2 takes it up to 838 hp and 686 lb-ft of torque, and finally, Stage 3 unleashes 986 hp and 922 lb-ft of torque.
The 488 GTB features a matte red wrap and matte black finish on side mirrors, splitter, roof and side flicks, as well as gold wheels and xXx Performance stickers.
