Maserati GranCabrio MC Gets Supercharged by Novitec Tridente

Adding to the performance of the 4.7-liter V8 engine, the Germans have added a supercharger, a big intercooler and a new intake manifold for a power increase of 186 hp and 104 Nm (76 lb-ft) of torque. The sleek convertible now puts down 646 hp and 624 Nm (460 lb-ft) of torque. This enables it to go from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.9 seconds, from 0 to 200 km/h in 11.4 seconds and only stops once it reaches 305 km/h (189 mph).

The engine conversion alone costs €23,900 ($31,970), but Novitec didn't stop there, offering a new set of wheels and tires, sports suspension and a sports exhaust with en electronically actuated butterfly valve.
