- We generally are proponents of keeping a car in its original configuration but we've been known to waver for really cool supercharger projects.
- It's a cold heart that doesn't flutter thinking of Texan Bob Norwood's supercharged Boxer/ Testarossa powered 308 Funny car making a pass down the quarter mile.
- German tuner, Willy Koenig famously added a supercharger to his turbocharged Testarossa when the customer complained about excessive turbo lag.
Northeast Ferrari wrench, Wil de Groot got bit by the supercharger bug and spent a couple years building a supercharged 308. We followed the build on Ferrarichat and marveled at the project when the car debuted in Forza magazine.
- As alchemists are always thinking of their next project, Wil let his creation pass to a new caretaker in favor of a new project.
- Wil's supercharged 308 GTB is now in our hands and we couldn't be happier.
The project started with a European dry sump 308 GTB.
- The engine was torn down to the block and rebuilt with new bearings, seals, and gaskets.
- An intake manifold was custom machined out of billet stock to accept an Opcon (now Vortech) autorotor twin screw supercharger.
- The list of ancillary modification runs a full page of paper with no stone left unturned in pursuit of making the car as dependable as it is fast.
- Cosmetically the paint and body are excellent and set off with a set of custom 17” wheels .
- The interior is original and in good condition.
- Mechanically the car is absolutely tractable and beyond fast.
- It is as comfortable driving in city traffic as it is scorching winding roads.
