    I've seen that Koenig tuning offers a TT package for the 456. Has anyone ever seen or driven an actual car with this modification?

    A 456 with some carbon fiber, 19" wheels and ~600hp would be the ideal "family Ferrari" IMO.

    I am looking to buy a 456. I would be very interested in hearing about a twin turbo package for it. Do they have any info about it on the internet?

    I've never heard of a twin turbo for it, but I recall that at least one (were there ever more than one?) of the 456s Straman cut had some sort of supercharger.

    I don’t think they ever did the package. There is not enough room on the driver side of the engine bay to fit a turbo, and a intercooler blocking the radiators wont help the cooling issues. We have tried it and decided to go a different route.
