    Top Gear has written that the 488 could retain a naturally aspirated engine in the 488 GT3. Mercedes is using a naturally aspirated 6.3 liter engine in its new AMG GT GT3 even though the street version uses the smaller turbocharged engine. Time will tell.

    Maybe they will use the same engine unit with the production cars but with restrictors.

    I'm sure it's a good possibility this will happen, at least until they develop the race turbo engine which will likely be better on fuel. With BOP though, maybe they'll keep the 458 gt3 engine for gt3 class. Not sure what rules are on gt2?

    Great video! The sound is amazing. The blow off valve sound together wit the turbo sound is a w e s o m e.
