    This is a rare option only installed by F40lover. If William H. come by my house I will install and test for a modest fee, the fee will consist of a 2 day test drive!!!! :)

    although im sure koenig has had people ask if they offer a higher performance package for the F40, probably bigger turbos & intercoolers along with that cabin switch :D

    Different car.


    That was a Norwood twin turbo. The power screw car is the Koenig twin turbo, located in London (i believe)

    So you can turn the horsepower from around 600 to 700 to 800?? Why would you want a feature like that? Gas mileage??:)

    Supercarfreak is correct. That is a picture of the switch in the Koenig Twin Turbo F50. At least we are having fun with it. Now if someone would only post those "Turkish Bath Photos"...........

    Knowing Willie, when i saw this thread i had only one thought. Then, seeing the dial for "power screw" i knew that you guys were on track. It will take a little modification, but if the dial can be installed on this, which is then propped up in the passenger seat, i think the car will be, in the parlance of the iron salesmen, fully "loaded":

    It was in Car & Driver a while back but forget while issue exactly.
    Also had Carmack's 1000+ hp Testarossa in the test, too.
    The F50 had a cylinder running really rich and messed up the spark plug so they were unable to get really high speeds in it I remember.
