Will the TECTRONIC interfere with the factory electronics or require any permanent changes to the 296's OBD system?

No. The NOVITEC TECTRONIC is a plug-and-play module that works alongside the factory electronics without ECU flashing or permanent modification. It intercepts the sensor signal that would otherwise trigger an error code, leaving the rest of the OBD system functioning as standard.

Can the TECTRONIC be used with the original Ferrari 296 exhaust system, or is it only for NOVITEC exhaust setups?

The TECTRONIC is designed for use with NOVITEC exhaust systems on the 296. It addresses the specific sensor irregularities introduced by NOVITEC downpipes, so it is not a universal OBD module for other exhaust configurations.

Is the TECTRONIC a one-time purchase, or does it need to be replaced if the exhaust setup changes?

The NOVITEC TECTRONIC is a durable module, not a consumable. If the exhaust configuration changes significantly, such as moving from sport to race downpipes, the module requirements for the new setup should be verified with NOVITEC rather than assuming the existing TECTRONIC covers the new configuration.

Description

NOVITEC TECTRONIC for F171 Ferrari 296 GTB & GTS

The NOVITEC TECTRONIC for the Ferrari 296 is the module that prevents check-engine lights and OBD error codes from triggering when sport or race downpipes are installed on the F171 GTB and GTS. Without it, the 296’s electronics will flag sensor irregularities introduced by the change in exhaust flow characteristics through the downpipe section, which is why NOVITEC recommends the TECTRONIC as a required pairing with any downpipe upgrade on this platform. Installation is plug-and-play, requiring no ECU flashing or permanent modification to the factory electronics. The NOVITEC TECTRONIC is available as a standalone purchase or as an add-on alongside a NOVITEC exhaust system for the 296, making it straightforward to include at any point in a build. Available individually or bundled with a NOVITEC exhaust system.

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.
