Having previously been installed without any further modification, that changed with the Zonda F. The cylinder heads were uprated for improved flow, hot camshafts were installed and the ECU was re-mapped.

The intake and exhaust systems also came in for attention.

A new induction system with larger intake manifolds and hydroformed aluminium alloy intake plenum with reduced 1mm wall thickness replaced the standard Mercedes-Benz unit.

The exhaust manifolds were hydroformed as well; standard equipment was a 1mm thick stainless steel arrangement while a 0.7mm Inconel superalloy system was offered an an optional extra. The exhausts and silencers were made by MHG in Germany; equal length pipes on the manifold were bent F1 style and ceramic coating was employed to keep temperatures down.

Displacement was an unchanged 7291cc thanks to a bore and stroke of 91.5mm and 92.4mm respectively. A 10.0:1 compression ratio was also retained.

Peak output was now 594bhp at 6150rpm and 560lb-ft 4000rpm.

For comparison, the outgoing Zonda S had produced 555bhp at 5900rpm and 553lb-ft at 4050rpm.

Customers that wanted even more performance could tick the 641bhp Club Sport option.
