There was a modified Bosch ignition in motorsport quality and two improved turbocharger. Next, there was a special 6-speed manual transmission and thus flew the "Yellowbird" (Road & Track gave the XNUMX its surname) incredible 350 km / h. Originally, the CTR2 520 PS and later even made huge 580 PS. For that time an insane yield and still impressive today.
