Ruf TT R
What HP rating were 993 TT to 993 TT Ruf spec. conversions rated at.? The car in question is a 96tt USA spec. car. It had the full conversion done. Looking for rating at the crank and real world dyno numbers (on all wheel dyno) if possible. Also what boost were these cars running? I always thought 1bar. The reason for my question, I dynoed one today at 345awhp/.8bar boost, seems WAY to low.?

Bernie,
996Carerra is correct, but to amplify... Ruf Turbo Rs have at least 490 HP, most will dyno at about 510-520 hp. Your number seems low, but AWD dynos might not be very acurrate. In addition, if you are reading the boost by the factory-supplied digital readout... they will never show more than 0.8 BAR. Frankly, I don't know what boost pressure the Turbo Rs max out at. Sorry.
<edit>: be careful of AWD dynos... very few can "drive" the front rollers, which is required to keep the viscous coupler alive. If you dynoed on an AWD dyno without "driven" front rollers, you have toasted the VC... guaranteed.
