AJ, what a beautiful TT, love the wheels, but mostly the rich brown metallic, very unusual (special order/paint to sample?) with the tan interior.

Thanks Bryan, it was a special order paint and I love the combination on the darker tan full leather interior as it gives it an appeal I haven't felt with other more standard color combinations.

Thanks. Actually it is a "R"ock's "R"ace conversion :-) I did most all upgrades myself. Ruf actually has a badge, but the R is before the turbo on the ones I have seen...

Take care,

That is just gorgeous (rides & views)!!!

P.S. I don't see the boards but I expect that the bodysurfing was awesome!

Thank you! Mine is a mid year 2007 production. I have really enjoyed it. I tinker with the Boxster S and Cayenne as well...but most of my time, money, and fun goes to the Turbo

I have a Softronic tune on the Boxster also, and a few other goodies, but it feels like a turtle after driving the Turbo...But a fun turtle (and matching Basalt Black Metallic).

Very cool...what did your tune do for the Turbo...HP/TQ? Also I love your fleet and my wife currently has a Lexus ISC (nice hard top comvertible) but she has been talking about getting a SUV and I was trying to talk her into a Macan but now with my 1/2 mile aspirations I need to get somehting that can pull a trailer...may need to look at a diesel Cayenne???

Thanks...I honestly have not Dynoed the car, and even if I did and posted the HP / TQ I would have a host of people indicating that the Dyno I used is incorrect and the one they used is correct...yada,yada,yada. So I can tell you what I did, and what is indicated by vendors to some extent.

By Far...The highest HP increase on the car is the Red "R" I fabricated and installed ... I also did all of the work, painting and fabrication myself...Except writing the tune file....That would be Scott Slausen at Softronic. Super nice guy and very knowledgeable about the P-Cars...

So not sure on total..But it is fast as crap and when it is cool out I cannot keep it from breaking all the wheels loose...Maybe I will Dyno at some point...And definitely will be doing the 1/2 or 1/4 mile run somehwere...

Dang heck of a list and very very nice. I hear you on the dyno piece (have seen the threads) and I was interested in what you told me (Vendor specs)

I bet the car is fast and I may PM you for some additional details as I start building my 2009. About things like motor mounts, intercoolers and intake ducts but for now I am trying to fgirue out how far I want to go/spend. And I can't wait to hear how you do at the 1/2 mile event with the upgrades you have...keep us posted
