Petrol · 4.3 litre · Maidstone, KentFerrari California V8 remap490 to 510 bhp with Stage 1 software. The figures, the parts and the other engines in this car, on one page.
A Stage 1 remap takes the Ferrari California V8 from 490 to 510 bhp and from 505 to 525 Nm: 20 bhp and 20 Nm more, on standard hardware. On a turbocharged petrol the gain comes from boost, fuelling and ignition timing recalibrated within the limits of the standard turbo and injectors. It is done in a visit at our Maidstone workshop and the original file is kept, so it can go back to standard.

How much power does a Stage 1 remap add to a Ferrari California V8?
20 bhp and 20 Nm. Standard is 490 bhp / 505 Nm; Stage 1 is 510 bhp / 525 Nm. That is a 4% power gain and 4% more torque.
How do I get a price for a Ferrari California V8 remap?

Is a Stage 1 remap safe for this engine?
Stage 1 stays inside what the standard turbo, injectors, clutch and cooling were built to take. The figures above are the calibration we run, not a maximum. The car is checked for stored faults before and after, and the original file is kept so it can go back on.
Does a remap affect the warranty on a Ferrari California V8?
A manufacturer can decline a warranty claim on a part they can show was affected by the remap. We tell you plainly what that means for your car and your warranty position before anything is done.
How long does it take, and can it be reversed?
A Stage 1 remap is done in a single visit, usually the same day. The original software is stored and can be restored on request.
