Bit too curvey for us but worth a look.

How do you turn an original RV8 into a 2L?

I remember these being advertised / built - it was to take advantage of the tax rules in Italy. I would imagine that the output is still significantly lower than the 3.9 would have produced though, even with the blower, so something of an oddity.

Power quoted as 230 so only 10 down on the (claimed) 240 of the 3.9 but a lot less torque.

It's why all V8S cars had the bulge in the bonnet even though only the (three?) Italian cars had the supercharger.
