Default Current list of available mods for Californias?

From all manufacturers...
What are the current available mods for the Californias?
What are the most efficient in terms of cost and return?

.... Why isn't the California available in the prefix list and/or listed in the V8 car list?

Welcome to Ferrari Life. What mods interest you for the California? Are you talking about those like the Novitec wheels and body kits, or the options available through the atelier?

You are correct, we need to add the California to the Modern V8 section.

Here you go. Ask for Jason. I bought my Novitec NF2 wheels from him. Californias look really good with NF3 wheels.

Not into the rapeage of Novitec pricing.

FYI for anyone else looking:

Fabspeed has some good options:

FABSPEED: Ferrari California

ECU is from EVOMSit, which you can get as a package with the exhaust from fabspeed or by itself:

EVOMSit Intelligent Tuning

I emailed UndergroundRacing to see if they want to develop a twin turbo kit for the California...

Those NF2s look great on just about any car.


Everything you have heard is true.

Welcome to Ferrari Life. Have you tried bypassing your pneumatic exhaust valves first to see if you like that sound better?

Fabspeed's exhaust sounds very good on the California, and their package brings it up over 500 hp. Good reasonable place to start, then if you want more, turbo away, but don't count on getting anything back on your money with a turbo package.

Is there a way to do this by just pulling a fuse, or can you only do it the mechanical way of first removing the under covering and plugging the hoses?

I'd rather just pull a fuse...
