A modified Maserati? It may be a rare sighting but German-based tuning firm Novitec specializes in offering tuning packages for Fiat Group brands including Ferrari, Fiat, Alfa Romeo, Lancia and… Maserati. The company’s Novitec Tridente made its world debut with a performance package for the Quattroporte in 2007 and is now back in 2009 with a performance package for the GranTurismo S.

Now the GranTurismo S may be everything one wants from a high-priced vehicle including luxury, eye-popping gorgeous looks and a powerful engine. However at 440-hp, the engine doesn’t do justice to the segment in which this Maserati competes in.

In comes Novitec with a supercharged 4.7L V8, an upgraded ECU and a tuned exhaust system. Power has been increased from a boring 440-hp to a whopping 600-hp.

Novitec is also offer modest appearance upgrades for the GranTurismo including a front spoiler, rear wing, side skirts, and 21-inch 5-spoke wheels.
