Thanks for sharing the story and photos! That's an awesome car...




Can we get a closer photo of the engine and intercooler?

I love RUF Porsche (probably as 99.99% 911 owners/enthusiasts) just not so very fan of the body modification design, however, I still would love to have one...but that won't ever happen....

RufMD, are you considering bringing the new RUF to Porsche Parade in Vermont this June? You should. That would be awesome!

The rear wing provides air to intake, cooling to intercoolers and downforce

Thanks RufMD Truly impressive work by RUF with such details. Now I know why the design of the wing and vent holes..I didn't know the IC's were mounted that way before...impressive!!

Enjoy your new toy! Happy driving

What an absolute treat - well done, and how very generous to share it so thoroughly with the forum

Could I ask about the engine ? CTR2s came with a 520 set up I recall ? Leon S develped a 580hp set up with Ruf around 2005 which he used to great effect in his aero TurboR at various vmax events in the UK. I am presuming that your engine got the 580 package as part of the overhaul ? Can you give some details ? K24/26 internal wastegate ? Motronic boost control ? Level of boost at peak torque ? level of boost at peak power? cams ? sealing rings ? twin plug (don't think Ruf do twin plig?) ? An engine dyno sheet would be icing on the cake ?

Again, thanks for sharing and enjoy in best of health
