This 1988 Ferrari Testarossa is a red-over-black example powered by a 4.9-liter flat-12 that has been modified with a Norwood Performance Stage 1 twin-turbocharger kit featuring revised intercoolers, a custom exhaust, and a MoTeC M48 engine management system. An engine-out timing belt service was carried out in July 2021, and additional work since then included installing an OS Giken R-series triple plate clutch, rebuilding the half-shafts and Turbonetics turbochargers, and replacing the battery, alternator, wastegates, fuel pumps, and various ignition components. The car rolls on 18″ HRE 547 wheels and is further equipped with a five-speed manual transaxle, a limited-slip differential, Brembo brake calipers, pop-up headlights, a gated shifter, and air conditioning. Acquired by the selling dealer in 2025, this modified Testarossa shows 9k miles and is now offered in Texas with the removed factory wheels and brakes, partial service records, an accident-free Carfax report, and a clean Arizona title.
The Pininfarina-designed body is finished in Rosso Corsa and features pop-up headlights, fog lights, an asymmetrical cooling duct beneath the left fog lamp, side intake strakes, black-finished rocker panels, and quad exhaust outlets. Paintless dent repairs were performed to the body in July 2021.
The 18″ HRE 547 alloy wheels are wrapped with 235/40 front and 295/35 rear Pirelli P Zero Rossa tires showing a mixture of 2019 and 2021 date codes. Red-finished Brembo brake calipers mounted over multi-piece cross-drilled rotors at all four corners have been installed, and the half-shafts were rebuilt in July 2021.
The cockpit is trimmed in Nero Connolly leather upholstery over the seats, door panels, and lower dashboard. The air conditioning system was converted to utilize R134a refrigerant in July 2021, at which time the air conditioning compressor was rebuilt. A Valentine One radar detector concealed display is affixed to the right side of the steering column, and appointments include a gated shifter, a rear window defroster, aluminum pedals, and power windows.
The three-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel frames Veglia instrumentation including a 200-mph speedometer, a tachometer with a 6,800-rpm redline, and gauges for oil pressure and coolant temperature. A clock and auxiliary readouts for fuel level and oil temperature are housed in the center stack, while an AutoMeter boost gauge is stationed above the center climate control vents. The six-digit odometer shows 9k miles. The Carfax report notes a potential odometer rollback in April 2010.
The 4.9-liter flat-12 was modified in September 2007 by Norwood Performance in Dallas, Texas, with their Stage 1 twin-turbocharger kit. Twin Turbonetics turbochargers, revised intercoolers, custom exhaust manifolds, and a MoTeC M48 engine management system connected to two MSD 6A ignition controllers were installed as part of the kit. An engine-out timing belt service was conducted in July 2021, and additional work since then included rebuilding the turbochargers and replacing the battery, alternator, ignition rotor, distributor cap, spark plug, MSD ignition controllers, fuel pumps, wastegates, camshaft seals, and engine cover support struts.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual transaxle and a limited-slip differential. An OS Giken R-series triple plate clutch was installed in November 2021.
The removed factory wheels and brake components will be included in the sale along with a tool kit and partial service records.
The Carfax report shows the aforementioned potential odometer rollback.
