Hi,

This may be something to ask to the Italian geodetic agency (IGM), but 
with the data available in the EPSG database, and roasted woodpecker, 
this is the best transformation available. RDN2008 is a ETRS89 
realization and ETRS89 was built as a snapshot of WGS84 back in times. 
Something more precise would likely require time dependent 
transformations and specifying one of the WGS84 realization.

With my salted beans,

Even
