Product Description:

The Novitec N-Tronic Power Stage 1 is a sophisticated, processor-controlled tuning solution for the McLaren Sports Series. Specifically designed for the 3.8L V8 twin-turbo engine, this "Plug & Play" module allows owners to unlock significant reserves of power and torque without permanently altering the vehicle's original hardware or engine management software.

Performance & Stance

• Massive Power Gain: For the 570S, 570GT, and Spider, Stage 1 increases output from 562 hp to a formidable 622 hp (457 kW) at 7,500 rpm.

• Torque Enhancement: Peak torque is boosted to 677 Nm, resulting in much more aggressive in-gear acceleration and a more muscular power delivery across the entire rev range.

• Improved Sprint Times: The additional power shaves tenths off the factory figures, enabling a 0–100 km/h sprint in just 3.0 seconds (down from the stock 3.2 seconds).

• Refined Throttle Response: Beyond the raw numbers, the N-Tronic optimizes the engine's mapping to provide a more instantaneous and linear throttle response, making the car feel significantly more alert.

Compatibility

• Article No. C1 570 10

• Supported Models: * McLaren 540C (Upgraded to 588 hp)

  • McLaren 570S Coupe & Spider

  • McLaren 570GT

• Active Dynamic Panel Integration: A standout feature of the Novitec system is that it can be activated or deactivated on the fly. Standard power is maintained in Comfort and Sport modes, while the N-Tronic performance mapping becomes active once the engine is switched into "Track" mode.

Engineering & Material Configurations

• Dual-Module Architecture: The kit includes two specialized Novitec N-Tronic modules that work in tandem to monitor and adjust injection, ignition, and boost pressure in real-time.

• Safe-Performance Logic: The modules are programmed with internal safeguards that ensure the engine never exceeds safe operating temperatures or mechanical stress limits.

• Tuning Evolution: Stage 1 is designed as a standalone software-only upgrade. For those seeking even more power (up to 646 hp), this kit serves as the foundation for Stage 2 and Stage 3, which incorporate Novitec’s high-performance exhaust systems and cat-replacement pipes.

Installation

• Plug & Play: The kit includes a model-specific wiring harness that connects directly to the original engine sensors. There is no cutting, splicing, or soldering required.

• Completely Reversible: Because the system is an auxiliary control unit, it can be removed at any time to return the vehicle to its 100% stock configuration, leaving no "footprint" on the factory ECU.

• DIY Friendly: While professional installation is recommended for optimal cable routing, the system is designed for a straightforward, ready-to-mount setup.
