Mansory 4XX Siracusa for Ferrari 488 — Complete Kit Guide
Mansory 4XX Siracusa for Ferrari 488 — Complete Kit Guide
When Ferrari replaced the naturally aspirated 458 with the twin-turbocharged 488, purists lamented the loss of that iconic V8 wail. Mansory's response was the 4XX Siracusa — a programme that not only transforms the 488's visual character but also unleashes the twin-turbo engine's considerable untapped potential. The 4XX designation references the Ferrari naming convention while announcing this as a distinctly Mansory interpretation, and the Siracusa name carries forward the lineage from the 458 programme.
Available in full kit, Soft Kit, and Spider-specific variants, the 4XX Siracusa is one of the most comprehensive Ferrari tuning programmes on the market in 2026.
Kit Overview
- 4XX Siracusa (Full Kit) — Complete exterior transformation with replacement bumpers, widened fenders, rear wing, and comprehensive carbon fibre treatment. Available with performance upgrades to 780+ hp.
- Soft Kit — A bolt-on programme that enhances the 488's lines without replacing major body panels. The restrained option for owners who value subtlety.
- Spider — The 4XX Siracusa adapted for the 488 Spider, with unique rear deck and tonneau cover treatments alongside the full exterior package.

Variations in Detail
4XX Siracusa Full Kit
The full 4XX Siracusa is a statement of intent. The front bumper is completely redesigned with a wider aperture, integrated carbon splitter, and reshaped intake channels that feed more air to the front-mounted radiators. The hood gains functional NACA ducts and cooling vents that reduce under-bonnet temperatures during sustained high-speed driving. Widened fenders — 20mm per side — accommodate larger wheels and tyres, improving both aesthetics and mechanical grip.
The rear is where the 4XX Siracusa makes its most dramatic departure from factory specification. A fixed carbon fibre wing generates significantly more downforce than the 488's retractable unit, while a multi-element diffuser accelerates air beneath the car. Combined with a performance upgrade that takes the 3.9-litre twin-turbo V8 to approximately 780 hp through ECU recalibration, intercooler upgrades, and a sport exhaust system, the 4XX Siracusa is a genuinely faster car than the 488 it is based upon.
Soft Kit
The Soft Kit strips the 4XX Siracusa back to its essentials. No fender modifications, no replacement bumpers, no fixed wing. Instead, a front lip spoiler and splitter, carbon side skirt extensions, a rear diffuser add-on, and a subtle lip spoiler on the engine cover. Carbon mirror caps and interior trim pieces complete the visual package. The factory body is entirely untouched, and the conversion is fully reversible.
This programme is particularly popular with 488 GTB owners who enjoy their cars on public roads and value a degree of discretion. It is also the most cost-effective entry point into Mansory's Ferrari world.
Spider
The 4XX Siracusa Spider shares the full kit's front bumper, fenders, side skirts, and widened stance, but the rear treatment is unique. The retractable hardtop requires specific clearances that preclude the coupe's large fixed wing. Instead, Mansory developed an integrated ducktail spoiler that sits atop a bespoke rear deck and tonneau cover in carbon fibre. The visual effect is elegant and purposeful, with the tonneau cover's sculpted buttresses framing the engine bay when the roof is stowed.

Installation Notes
The 488's aluminium chassis requires the same care as the 458 during component installation. The full 4XX Siracusa kit, including fender widening and performance modifications, requires 5-7 working days at a qualified facility. The Soft Kit can be completed in 1-2 days. Spider-specific components require additional fitting time to ensure clearance with the retractable roof mechanism — allow 6-8 days for a complete Spider conversion.
Performance upgrades (ECU and exhaust) should be carried out by technicians experienced with Ferrari's electronic architecture. Mansory provides detailed calibration files and installation documentation to authorised partners.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the 4XX Siracusa compatible with the 488 Pista?
The 488 Pista features significantly different bodywork, particularly at the front and rear. Mansory's 4XX Siracusa components are designed for the 488 GTB and Spider. Select pieces (mirror caps, interior trim) are compatible with the Pista, but the full kit is not a direct fit.
How reliable is the 780 hp performance upgrade?
The 488's twin-turbo engine is well known for its substantial power reserves. Mansory's calibration stays within conservative boost levels, and the supporting modifications (intercooler, exhaust) ensure the engine operates with comfortable thermal margins. Long-term reliability is excellent with proper maintenance.
Can I install the full kit but skip the fender widening?
Yes. Mansory offers the front and rear bumpers without widened fenders. The visual effect is slightly different — the bumpers are designed to flow into the wider fenders — but the non-widened configuration is a valid option that many clients choose.
Does the conversion affect my Ferrari warranty or service plan?
Aftermarket modifications are not covered by Ferrari's warranty. However, mechanical service and maintenance can continue at any Ferrari dealer. Mansory's modifications do not require proprietary diagnostics — all factory tools and procedures remain applicable.
What is the lead time for a complete 4XX Siracusa build?
Carbon fibre components are manufactured to order with a lead time of 8-12 weeks. Performance components typically ship within 4-6 weeks. Plan for a total project timeline of 3-4 months from order to completion, including installation.
