    Hi everyone, how are you doing?

    I was wondering, is it possible to adapt the F40´s turbos into the 308 (being basically the same engine, only aspirated)? What about the european version front bumper? Any idea of prices?

    Thank you so much

    Really? Unless you turn the engine doesn't look like you can fit the F40 turbo set up.

    On the 308 with the engine positioned the way it is it might be a lot easier to model something along the lines of the 208 Turbo.

    I thought he meant "can you use the turbos" and the answer is yes. If the question is can you use the rest of the system the answer is not easily. The 208 parts would be the easiest of the ferrari stuff to install but personally I'd use a single modern turbo.

    If you do a search you should find your answers. There was a QV version. The version made during 328 production was just called a GTS/B and was higher boost and intercooler. They were all CIS I think....could be wrong. Again the easiest, cheapest and best way to add a turbo is to buy a single modern ball bearing turbo and add efi, but in theory 208 or GTS/B stuff should fit if that is what your want to do and you can if.

    Can anyone post or know of a location on-line of the relevant TAVs for the 208 Turbo plumbing? Also any good detail pictures would be great. I've never seen any of the pictures and inquiring minds want to know what it looks like from Ferrari.
