This capacity multiplied by the equalization formula 1.4 associated with the use of turbochargers put 288 GTO just below the 4-liter limit for cars without recharging, but posed Ferrari possibility of obtaining much more power than that which could be squeeze with 4-liter engine niedoÅ‚adowanego and without significant losses on fuel consumption. 288 GTO styled by Pininfarina in collaboration with experts from the aerodynamics of the Ferrari looked like the 308 on steroids. Wheelbase was increased by 110 mm, expanded the spacing of the front and rear wheels so the car better stick to the road.
