Basically these cars are over engineered, you pay for what you get. You pay 60 USD, you get a strong package, RUF cars do everything they say on the box and more.

New aerokit looks like this:




all the best

luting_chen,

I am running about 140 more hp w/o NOS and over 200 more with. Due to my gearing, my 0-60 time is over a second faster. I am using a 3.187 first gear ratio which gets me to 60 mph without shifting. From 0-185/190 I should arrive about 6-8 seconds earlier. My top end is gear limited as all six gears have been moddified to provide acceleration at the cost of top end. Both Tyson's and the Nardo would sail on by at some later point, given enough roadway.

Would you rather have two slow cars than one really fast?

So people do lower gearing on the TT. I did it on My M5 and it made a huge difference. Does it make big torque gains on the TT?

This package is pretty cool.

But I have no regrets. Wilber and Protomotive engineered a package with comparable or better performance for substantially less $$$.

If I cracked open the motor and did rods, this Ruf would be eating my dust.
