YouTube - Lambo Gallardo vs. Ferrari 360CS Novitec

 

That car is a joke.... Turbos and cant beat a Gallardo with ECU and exhaust.

In AZ a CS with exhaust, headers, ecu and filters wouldnt go faster than 105 in the 1/4. The owners Bentley Flying Spur with 4 people in it was beating it.

 

I agree, that's pretty bad for a FI 360 to run neck and neck with a close to stock gallardo

 

They're pretty darn close given the Ferrari's tune, and exhaust, but it falls short in hp and torque. I still love the 360 CS though! Just put on the Novitec SC kit with 525 bhp and whooweee, hold on!!
STOCK
03 360 CS: 425 bhp 325 torque lb-ft
06 Gallardo: 520 bhp 376 torque lb-ft.

 

CS all day, everyday.

 

After reading Evo mags review the novitec 430 sport and finding out you dont get the added power of the superchargers until the very top of the powerband i wasn't too impressed at all. The 360 needs low-mid range, i'd go turbo.

 

I've had the privilege of driving a Novitec twin-supercharged F430. The power is immediately noticeable. The hp and tq curves are similar to the factory setup...just much higher. There are no dips in the powerband. Aside from the black-out tail lights, I don't know how much of that CS was Novitec. But it definitely doesn't sound or accelerate like a twin-supercharged car. It might just have exhaust...

 

A stock Gallardo will ruin a 360CS. Doesnt matter what the stated numbers say, the 360Cs Is lucky to dyno 325rwhp stock.

 

How do you know what mods either of them had?
I doubt that CS had FI.

Did I miss something?

 

That Ferrari most definitely didnt have any kind of forced induction in it.
