Great thread!
OK, quick numbers, how much for the Ruf and how much for yours Ken, roughly equal performance for how many $?
The area under the torque curve is greater for the turbo than the GT-3 but there should be no comparison in how the cars pull considering the huge difference in torque (370 vs 260 ft-lbs). I just wish the turbo was about 1,000 lbs lighter.

Tim,
I will be tough to compare apples to apples since, in my case, there aren't any labor charges and our upgrade paths are slightly different. But, here goes an attempt....
If you were to have the work done and only lift a finger to write a check, then I would surmise the cost would be roughly equivalent to Sean's price.
I could additionally sum up the costs for the numerous other upgrades in the car like:
But I do not want to be sick this morning!!!!

- Result #3 shows that X50 Upsolute and non-X50 Upsolute have the same HP (BSC996TTs number was also 437 wheel HP) and thus they are probably the same program! No wonder it lagged so badly on my X50...
