If you're at Norwoods and the bad-ass TR Twin Turbo is on the dyno, about 800 at the rear wheels.

Yea I think the fire was 3-4 years ago. The 355 was rebuilt and was recently offered to me for sale. I think a guy from Milton ownes it. I guess hes trying to dump out of it but I passed since it most likely has a salvage title. Joey Kramer has a nice silver 360 with "MODENA" tags. He lives down the street from me.

Jake, I have not been to Marty's home in 5 years. If I recall correctly, he lives in Sherborn and has a software business in Medfield. Drives his TR often, weather permitting.
I stopped for gas on 3 in my TR shortly after the Aerosmith band member's F355 had a fire in a gas station locally. Nobody ventured very close.
I am a "north shore" guy but do travel through Hanover etc driving to New Seabury.

Hey John does Marty live in Hanover? I live near ACS, they are great guys and greater mechanics but cost lots of $$$!!!! If you have been there recently I had my Viper Venom there for some work. I do not recall seeing a Testarossa around town. The only F-cars around are the Aerosmith guys. I have seen a 348 Challenge around also.

Try www.acsracing.com/Ferrari.html
I located the link on the home page below the various Viper, Bullet bike etc list.
Hope this helps.

john b. -- Can you post a more direct link? (I couldn't find the TR on the Dyno Days page.)

330 is a good estimate.
When I had my ROW TR a fellow TR owner had his '87 US TR dyno'd. Results were 327.6 SAE HP 291.3 ft-lbs torque. Marty's TR was a very strong US car.
Photos and dyno charts can be viewed at www.acsracing.com

Anyone ever dyno'd a year 85 to 91 model?

If I am correct, research states 390 at crank.
