    After 2 years of owning my 488 I finally got the Novitec n tronic, cat delete and valved exhaust. I have to say it’s completely changed the car, wash I got this much sooner. And yes it shoots flames on upshifts

    Sounds great. Never thought the 488 could sound that good.

    After the cat deletes, does the exhaust smell bother you? How bad does it smell?

    Ive had many cars with Catdeletes . The smell doesnt bother me much at all. IMO with the ferrari it doesnt smell as bad as cars wit the engine in the front.

    Your car sounds awesome!

    I recently installed the N tronic tune and I can tell that there is a big difference in power.

    Question for you, after the N tronic tune was installed and in race mode does your turbo boost gauge still show a max boost of 14 PSI? I know that the tune increases boost but my turbo boost gauge still shows only 14 PSI max which is the same prior to the Novitec tune.

    The Novi N-tronic is not a tune but fools the boost sensors, explaining why the gauge does not show more than oem 14psi.
    As the ECU still sees the lambda, timing, IAT, EGT, etc...It still adjusts all the parameters but "thinking" boost is lower.
    A true tune is far better but the N-tronic is stealth; althought I heard the ECU can record anormally high injection times and get in limp mode sometimes.
