I just received my replacement frunk identification stickers from a fellow RL'r. For some reason the original is not there and I wanted to replace it. When double checking the values against the original in the service book i noticed option code 150
964uk says it is "No Emissions Systems for countries without unleaded fuel"
others say it is "operates with leaded gas"
I am wondering what the physical differences are to support this code??? Like others i have no O2 sensor - is this part of the difference and are there others?

Paul the NZ retail for the spec of 991 GT3RS I would want in Lava Orange with a few options is 377,000 NZD with on road cost (base is 360000 + ORC). Private import 90k less. U got the brochure last night with the press pack when the embargo ended and I went through it in detail and in short I'm very happy with my GT3 for the money!! Infact I expect the 991 GT3 has just got more popular!! If I had taken an RS I would have had to give up the GT4 and GT3 to justify it!!
I can see why 997.2's have recovered some of their depreciation.......
You pay a lot for an 'RS' badge. The badge is worth more than its weight in plutonium.

Thank the Playstation generation for the interest in the Yellowbird. That and the fact RUF was the only Porsche products you could "drive" in the GT games. For some reason Porsche were one of a very few manufactures that werent in the game.

You could however use an Innovate system with an aftermarket WB sensor to measure AFR.
I'm going to fit the WB sensor to Herman when I return and connect to my Typhoon ECU. That will be give me closed loop efficiency (hopefully) and allow me to log my AFR.
During the dyno run it was quite rich at 11.3:1 with the Motronics and SW Chip.
Books I am reading now suggest a high 12 is appropriate for an air cooled motor. I'm hoping the Typhoon is already at that level, but need to know before I stretch it at the track.

Yes but when did RUF vin start WPOzzzz?
Sorry Matt can't match you for Google resources today as driving 400km to Acapulco today and having to rely on mobile network and dodgy memory.
It had all the RUF gear that I can see on my iPhone but no integrated cage. RUF could do all these mods to customer cars. They only built 24 or so with RUF in from memory?
The market for a good one hard to establish. A few years ago the Dark red one sold in USA IIRC and now looking 400k. +++

Warwick, I have the same system with no lambda sensor. I'm not sure if you can retrofit into the loom and have OE functionality.

I agree the O2 sensor is the way to go. The map SC provided with their ECU would be the ideal value for a given load, TP, etc. Who knows what the actual AFR would be on a car given varying wear, mods, etc - thus the sensor providing values for appropriate trimming.
I'd be curious to see the mapping tables for the stock ECU and compare it to what the real measured values are. I would certainly drive a decision as to whether to invest in a programmable ECU - Typhoon, Motec, etc

Interesting what you say about the optimum AFR for air cooled engines. I'm guessing 12.x is at WOT? I agree the O2 sensor is the way to go.
