A straight-piped naturally aspirated V12 engine makes one of the best sounds in the automotive world. It’s an upgrade that’s absolutely worth it if you own a V12 Ferrari.
Novitec makes one of the finest exhaust systems for the Ferrari 812. It not only sounds good, but also improves performance. Biesse Racing in Bergamo, Italy, recently installed a full Novitec catless exhaust on an 812 GTS and then put it on a dyno.
Now, the stock 6.5-litre naturally aspirated V12 engine makes 800 hp at 8500 rpm and 530 lb-ft at 7000 rpm. With the Novitec exhaust installed, peak output jumped to 840 hp and 550 lb-ft. Peak horsepower at the wheel was around 744 hp.
