edo competition Enzo XX Evolution

It was less than two months ago that Edo Competition revealed the Enzo XX to an unsuspecting public. The tuner has now gone back to the same car and made improvements. How does one improve on 800hp? Can one? Apparently yes.

Meet the new edo Enzo XX Evolution, the next step in the process. Power is up and weight is down, a sure recipe for good performance numbers. By increasing the Enzo's 6.0-litre V12 cubic capacity to 6.3-litre, installing new camshafts, modified cylinder heads, titanium valve spring retainers and connecting rods, high flow catalytic converters, mufflers and air filters and new high performance exhaust headers edo did just this.

A lot more was done like improving the transmission's shift times to 60 milliseconds - 20 milliseconds less than an F1 car and using lighter drive shafts.

In the end 100kg (220 lbs) was shed and extra horses were brought into the stable. Now the car makes 618kW (840hp) and maximum torque of (575 ft-lb) is available at 5,800rpm. Moreover removing the muffler frees an extra 20 horses (15kW).

Performance figures are 0 - 100km/h in 3.2 seconds, 200km/h (124mph) in 9 seconds and 300km/h in 19 seconds. Top speed is said to go beyond the 390km/h (242mph) point thus presenting a real challenge to the 407km/h recorded by the Veyron under the skilled tutelage of one James May.

Exterior changes include a new retractable rear wing, new LED taillights and a new rear skirt with winglets.

Edo Competition will throw in a test day with an instructor and full hospitality package for those who choose to convert their prized Enzos.

edo competition Enzo XX Evolution

840 horsepower and 100 kilograms (220 lb) lighter

The Ferrari Enzo with its 660 horsepower is arguably one of the most exclusive cars in the world, both in terms of its driving dynamics and purchase price. Those looking for something considerably faster and more exclusive choose the edo Enzo XX Evolution.

A bump in displacement from 6.0 to 6.3 liters, new camshafts, new titanium valve spring retainers and connecting rods, modified cylinder heads, new high performance exhaust headers, high flow catalytic converters, mufflers and air filters: that's the scope of edo competition's engine modifications. The standard hydraulic tappets are replaced with newly developed solid tappets, enabling the 12 cylinder engine to rev to an incredible 9,600 rpm. This is unmatched by any other 12 cylinder engine at this time! Additionally the intake system of the V12 was modified, a new high performance clutch - available with „strada" or „pista" friction pads - and a more powerful oil pump were installed. The power output is increased by 180 to 840 horsepower. Without mufflers more than 860 horsepower is possible. The maximum torque of 780 Nm (575 ft-lb) is available at 5,800 rpm.

While the power output is increased, the Enzo's weight is decreased by a respectable 100 kilograms (220 lb). The result in numerical terms is that the edo Enzo XX Evolution accelerates from zero to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.2 seconds, 200 km/h (124 mph) in 9.0 seconds and 300 km/h in just 19 seconds. The top speed exceeds 390 km/h (242 mph).

The acoustical side of things is obviously not being neglected. A stainless steel muffler featuring remote-controlled butterfly valves is available on request. This setup lets the driver switch the high performance exhaust between two different sound levels.

Astonishing transmission shift times: While the production Enzo takes 110 milliseconds, the edo Enzo XX Evolution shift times were reduced to an incredible 60 milliseconds! For comparison, an F1 car shifts in 40 milliseconds.

The edo/KW race suspension from the FIA GT series was retuned for the Enzo XX Evolution, promising ultimate driving dynamics. The nose lift functionality is retained. The low-friction 3-way adjustable shock absorbers can be adjusted to the individual tastes of the driver and provide excellent steering precision and feedback. The edoinstalled tire pressure monitoring system displays the pressures for each of the four wheels. Providing ample grip for the edo Enzo XX Evolution are 19 inch front wheels and 20 inch rear wheels with 335 mm wide tires. The drive shafts were replaced due to the higher propulsive forces acting on them. The new units are 4 kg (8.8 lb) lighter and considerably more robust in order to cope with the enormous power increase.

The aerodynamics package is absolutely unique.

It includes a complete exhaust system with tips machined from billet aluminum, now relocated to the top of the body. The tips are plasma-coated using a special process. The newly developed rear skirt featuring winglets and a rear wing profile, adjustable in 3 steps, improves the ground effect and can be tuned to the tastes of the driver. The new retractable rear wing is upgraded with a taller flap resulting in increased downforce and stability, especially at high speeds. New LED tail lights round off the rear view of the car.

A test day with an instructor, mechanics, data logging, transport and hospitality is included in the conversion package.

All modifications are carried out exclusively at edo competition Motorsport GmbH in Ahlen.

you can probably buy an Veyron and a Ferrari for the price of this Enzo and tuning package.

why not buy a Veyron , every Ferrari model , a Edo FXX and a Wally 118 ? price is irrelevant when you're a billionaire.

Exactly. The Gumpert is ugly, but you are attracted to it on a very powerful level. Ahhhh, the FXX for those that missed the FXX.

I'm pretty sure if you can buy this car, you're not looking for performance on the track because you can probably afford your own F1. It's all about the looks, weird idea for the exhaust.

you can't take a F1 car on the road and even if you fly it from one track to another, the endless parts changing can become annoying after a while, not to mention that being rich alone doesn't make you able to drive a F1 car. about the exhaust placement , those are race exhausts , they are placed that way in case someone bumps you from behind the exhaust doesn't get destroyed.

I'm loving the FXX-esque exhuasts.

I saw this car last year during F1 weekend in Montreal, but it wasn't so heavily modified then. Personally, I think what they've done with it is an abomination, but I can empathize with the desire to have a more exclusive Enzo. (Apparently having a yellow Enzo wasn't exclusive enough!)

Koenigsegg CCXR in terms of performance but tell me now this, that Enzo goes from 0-200 in 9s and 500kg heavier sedane with 4seats does this with less power and with automatic in total luxury...and I think it is also more reliable and better in life expectansy! it's name is Brabus E V12 Black Baron! oh and yes, price is better at Brabus too :D

"...recorded by the Veyron under the skilled tutelage of one James May." What did the English language ever do to you?

It was the misuse of the word tutelage that drew my ire.

Veyron looks much better, more powerful and could be used on the road.

Veyron-esque top speed; Welsh Dresser-esque back end. It may be quick but it ain't pretty.

You clearly cant read! There is an increase of 180hp from 660hp to 840hp... I laughed at most of the ridiculously uneducated comments made here...must be a lot of boyracers here, let me guess you'd rather have a GT-R *rollseyes*
