    Just read an interesting article in Forza about a 308 QV with a turbo. They got it up to over 380 hp and now the owner talks about taking it to 650 hp.

    The article mentions that the owner got some advice on how to beef up the brakes on here in FChat, so I guess he is a chatter himself.

    Anyway, interesting article. I love the looks of the car and if the owner reads this, I'd love to hear more details about the further upgrades to the engine.

    You realize that Paul (the owner) is an active member here?

    I really enjoyed the article.

    April issue, I've got mine. Didn't see it @ Kinokuniya though. Maybe borders or MPH? The front cover is a 250GTO/64.

    Good read. Cost about US$30K to set it up back then. Think they didn't increase the size. You can try that on the Mondial :)

    I figured, which is why I brought it up. Hoping he'd shed some more light on the conversion and his future plans.
