NOVITEC Sport Spring Set (Lowering Springs) | Ferrari Portofino
NOVITEC Sport Spring Set – Ferrari Portofino
Part Numbers & Versions (Two Options):
-
F5 333 03: For cars with Magneto dampers (SCM)
-
F5 333 04: For cars without Magneto dampers (SCM)
The NOVITEC Sport Spring Set is designed to lower the ride height of the Ferrari Portofino, resulting in a sportier look and improved driving dynamics. These springs are specifically tuned to work in combination with the car's standard dampers.
NOVITEC offers two different part numbers, depending on the type of shock absorbers the Portofino is equipped with from the factory, which is essential to ensure optimal operation and safety of the suspension.
Key Features
Driving Dynamics & Performance:
-
Lowering the Center of Gravity: By lowering the body, the Portofino's center of gravity is brought closer to the road. This results in significantly less body roll in corners and more direct steering feel.
-
Improved Aesthetics: The lowering ensures that the tires fill the wheel arches better, giving the car a much more aggressive, sportier, and complete appearance.
-
Comfort Retention: The springs are progressively wound and tuned to offer the best balance between sportiness and maintaining daily driving comfort.
Compatibility (Crucial):
The choice of the correct part number is essential and is based on the Portofino's factory-installed shock absorbers:
-
F5 333 03 (With SCM): Specifically designed and tuned for models equipped with Magneto dampers (SCM), ensuring that the electronic damper control remains fully functional.
-
F5 333 04 (Without SCM): Specifically designed for models with standard, non-magnetorheological dampers.

Why choose the NOVITEC Sport Spring Set?
