In the 1980's, if a car had over 400 horsepower, that was a LOT. Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Porsche all made cars that could go fast, but not by today's standards. Then Willy Koenig went nuts on a Ferrari Testarossa, reinforcing the engine, adding turbochargers, intercoolers, and the widest of body kits (designed by Vittorio Strosek). Only 21 Koenig Competition Evo Twin-Turbos were built, but even driving one today, 35 years later, you can understand the appeal. At four times the price of a standard Testarossa, this is the wildest Ferrari tuner car of all time!

For those who don't know, one of these, a RUF, and the Callaway Sledgehammer were top speed tested in a magazine back then, I believe it was a special exotic magazine run by Road and Track(not sure but I believe I still own it, lol). The RUF was the slowest at 211mph, then one of these did in fact do about 232mph, and of course the Sledgehammer did 254.7mph.

Thank you very much for this opportunity to remember.

I brought every magazine that had an article on these Koenig beasts through out the 80's when I was a teenager and to this day the Testarossa is still the greatest fantasy car in my mind. They did a beautiful 512 BB and a 1000 hp Countach. I remember them as having a supercharger that made boost up to 4500 rpm plus the twin turbos. Mind blowing cars to a kid in Australia.

It's been a long time since I've been around this scene, but years and years ago there was an unassuming garage in a field in North Texas that specialized in Ferrari restorations. In the 90s and 2000s, the guy running it often went under the moniker 'Ferrari Bob' and had a penchant for turbocharging Testarosa blocks well north of 1,000hp. I'd forgotten most of what he said about what made those blocks so durable, but if you were going to stuff the gills of a Ferrari V12 with boost, that was the one to source. Round about that same time, you could land a TR for about $27k that was probably in need of an engine rebuild anyway. That all said, the TR-F40 hybrid appearance of this one is magic in a bottle. With the looks to match the bite, I wouldn't turn one down either.

The sounds and wide shots of it flying by is what I've always dreamt about from an '80's Italian exotic (and so far from the reality of what they were). Love this car.

Always loved that Koenig, I remember reading about it back in the days in Dupont registry when I was a kid and it blew me away!!

I don't think I have ever seen a video that I could actually see the turbo's kick in, and the very rapid speed change as clear as this one. I understand how it works, but usually it is hard to tell on video.

I thought this was a kit car at first as I have never heard of this insane Koenig creation prior to this video. Learned something today! Thanks!

These Koenig Competition Testarossa's were my absolute favorite Euro Tuner Exotics from the 1980's! Even if the long term sustainability is crap and the fit-n-finish is garbage, it is stunningly beautiful in every way. I would love to see someone recreate a Koenig Competition from scratch, sticking with the original design, but making the body from Carbon Fiber with a current Ferrari engine and modern-day performance suspension and brakes.

Such a rad car. I saw one in the flesh in Japan outside a hotel I was staying at way back... probably early 2000s. Got a snap of it somewhere

As a ferrari-fan, i went to the "spa-ferrari-days" several times. A few times, the "koenig-cup" raced there, with about 20 koenig-tuned-cars. That was very cool to see, and hear!

So happy to discover this is even a thing, thank you so much. Feels like a modernised version using carbon Kevlar and modern suspension, brake, turbo exhaust combo would add a good deal more power and drivability
