Ferrari 488 Spider. Seen at Salone dell' Automobile Torino 2017. Parco del Valentino The 488 GTB is powered by a 3902cc (488cc per cylinder, thus the name) all-aluminium dry sump unit of the Ferrari F154 engine family. Turbocharged with two parallel ball-bearing twin-scroll turbochargers supplied by IHI/Honeywell and two air-to-air intercoolers, the compressor wheels are made of low-density TiAl alloy often used in jet engines to reduce inertia and resist high temperatures within the turbocharger. The engine produces 661 hp at 8,000 rpm and 760 N·m of torque at 3,000 rpm. This results in a specific power output of 126.3 kW (169.4 hp) per litre and specific torque output of 194.8 N·m per litre, both records for a Ferrari car.
