I think I'm right in saying that the 3.2 initially had 207 bhp in US spec, rising to 217 when the G50 'box was introduced. Is this correct? Were there any other spec changes over European models? and how easy is it to get back the lost power? I thinkk that the Motronic was different (presumably just a mapping/programming issue) and the compression ratio was 9.5.

Thanks - anyone else got any ideas of what could be done to regain the lost power?

No, I sold my RS some years ago (sadly) and play with Caterhams these days...but the lure of something to cruise around in with a dancing donkey on the badge is nigh on irresistable - but that's enough about Ferraris...
