Default 2008 Edo Competition 630 Scuderia (Ferrari 599 GTB)













Edo Competition introduces the brand new aerodynamics package, Edo 630 Scuderia!

edo competition Motorsport GmbH, one of the top names in sophisticated modifications of Ferrari, Lamborghini and Porsche cars is now introducing the brand new “edo 630 Scuderia” aerodynamics package for the Ferrari 599 GTB!

edo competition Motorsport GmbH, one of the top names in sophisticated modifications of Ferrari, Lamborghini and Porsche cars is now introducing the brand new “edo 630 Scuderia” aerodynamics package for the Ferrari 599 GTB!

The aim was to underline the perfect shapes of the Ferrari 599 GTB and to adapt the aerodynamics to higher top speed and meet the increased cooling demands caused by the improved power output without compromising the styling of the car.

The flow-optimized front apron features an enlarged cooling air inlet which improves the engine’s thermal balance. The larger center inlet also provides cool air for the brakes, thereby increasing their service life and fade resistance. In addition to that the front spoiler lip improves downforce on the front axle.

The newly developed side skirts reduce crosswind sensitivity and improve wheel arch ventilation in combination with the new rear apron. To achieve this, a new undertray with a wider diffuser – now with 6 blades – was mounted on both sides to enhance rear axle downforce at high speeds. Additionally a carbon fiber lip is mounted on the trunk lid to provide extra stability and rear downforce.

Naturally all parts are made from ultra-lightweight carbon fiber, which means a weight reduction of nearly 50 kg (110 lb) is a welcome side effect of this aerodynamics package.

Not bad, but I prefer the previous one that edo came out with. It was tuned but they didn't add the aero package. Oh by the way, it's the one that I currently have in my signature


The engine upgrade is available in 2 levels. Level 1 is 650hp and level 2 is 750hp. If you'd like more info, check the thread below.

They didn't really do much. Then again, the car doesn't need much (if anything) done to it

Maybe once a year I see an aftermarket company do something that actually adds to the basic design of a car. Most of the time they ruin cars with disgusting wings, spoilers, bodykits, ground effects, scoops, vents, etc. Either that, or they make very minor changes

Looks like they used CarGraphic wheels. Nice enough, but a pretty
dated design on this newer car. Tons of better choices for this car!

The front end is a mess.

The rear diffuser looks like a luggage rack placed upside-down.

Overall, fairly understated (given the recent "tuner" styling trends)
but not really that clean.

I love fixing-up cars more than the average joe, but the 599 doesn't
require much outside of wheels and a tiny bit of lowering.

Less is more.
