Do I need the GTRONIC if my Ferrari 296 is US-spec?

Most US-spec Ferrari 296 models are not equipped with a Gasoline Particulate Filter, so the GTRONIC may not be necessary on a US car. Check whether your specific 296 came with a GPF before purchasing, since this module is built around that filter's electronics.

What is the difference between the GTRONIC and the TECTRONIC?

The TECTRONIC prevents error codes when sport downpipes are installed on the Ferrari 296. The GTRONIC addresses GPF-equipped vehicles specifically, managing the electronics tied to a modified Gasoline Particulate Filter. Which module applies depends on whether the car has a GPF and which downpipe setup is being installed.

Will the GTRONIC work with the factory exhaust system, or only NOVITEC exhaust systems?

The GTRONIC works exclusively with NOVITEC exhaust systems on the Ferrari 296. It is not designed for use with the factory exhaust system.

Description

NOVITEC GTRONIC for F171 Ferrari 296 GTB / GTS

The NOVITEC GTRONIC for the Ferrari 296 is built for vehicles equipped with a Gasoline Particulate Filter (GPF), keeping the electronics error-code free when the GPF has been modified as part of a NOVITEC exhaust upgrade on the F171 GTB and GTS. GPF-equipped cars are common on EU and other non-US market 296 models; most US-spec 296s are not GPF-equipped, so this module is most relevant to owners running a GPF-equipped car who want to upgrade the exhaust without triggering fault codes tied to the filter. The GTRONIC manages that specific sensor relationship, allowing the modified GPF setup to run clean. It is exclusive to NOVITEC exhaust systems and installs plug-and-play, integrating with the factory wiring without permanent modification. Exclusive to NOVITEC exhaust systems on GPF-equipped Ferrari 296 models.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
