Hi Guys,

I am new to the forum and just took delivery of a new to me 1987 Ruf Tribute car.

It is a 3.2 turbo with 43,000 miles...man, this car is a whole lot of fun.

Welcome to rennlist. Pictures are a must. If that is your car in your avatar you are gonna get along here just fine.

Not that I'm trying to get rid of you, quite the opposite, but you may want to check out the 911 turbo section a little further down the list under Turbo

https://rennlist.com/forums/forumdis...?s=&forumid=57

....and we are gonna need the build sheet cause man, I've got the hots for your car.

Russ,
Welcome... That is a GORGEOUS car. I love the white and I especially love the matching RUF white wheels. Fantastic.

Russ: This was the car you had at Momentum Porsche two weeks ago for the Hurley Haywood event? Did you decide on the AC upgrade?

Hi Michael, nice to hear from you. No decision yet. I think the first move will be to mount two undercar very thin fans to gain air flow through the Performance Aire underbody condenser rather than just air across it. After that, I will regroup and decide the next step. Currently, we have very high head pressure and until we get air through the condenser, we won't know where to go next.

I sure enjoyed the Hurley Haywood event and it was nice meeting you.
