Ferrari Enzo Twin-Turbo for the Bonneville Speed Week

A surprising piece of news has just reached us about an Ferrari Enzo which, in order to astonish everyone attending the Bonneville Speed Week currently being held in Utah, USA, has been fitted with no less than a Twin-Turbo system on the fabulous V12 of this model.

Before continuing, it must be said that this car belongs to the multimillionaire Richard Losee who, in 2006, crashed his brand-new Ferrari while taking part in a rally. As a result, he decided to repair it and turn his Enzo into a rival worthy of any American drag racer.

Because of this decision, and since money apparently is no object, a complete Twin-Turbo system has been installed, with which the fantastic 6.0-litre V12 has raised its power to 850 horsepower, compared with the 651 produced by the standard model which, if high-performance fuel is used, the final output will be 1,000 horsepower.

Besides the mechanical changes made to the car, Richard Losee decided to fit high-performance tyres slightly narrower than the standard ones, a carbon-fibre front end designed to improve aerodynamics, and a lowered suspension, all supposedly to enable his Enzo to reach a top speed that should be around 483 km/h.

To be honest, I very much doubt this car will be capable of reaching such a top speed, since it has been calculated theoretically, although it should be significantly higher than the 364 km/h homologated for the standard Enzo.
