Start with the number that matters most: 2,936 cc. Twin IHI turbochargers, intercooled, feeding a V8 derived directly from the 288 GTO Evoluzione's own unit. Ferrari's own figures put peak output at 351.5 kW at 7,000 rpm, delivered through a five-speed manual with an exposed gate, no synchromesh softness disguised as refinement.
