This must be a blast to drive, I lovvved my 987 Boxster and would love to own a 3.8 Liter Boxster or a Turbo 2.7 in the future. To anyone considering any 997... this is definitly a car i would add to the list.

I highly doubt Porsche Engineers would have added that much HP without consideration of the brakes too.
Don't get me wrong here, but you did what most back-yard mechanics would have done with a VERY limited budget. Not exactly what I would expect from Ruf though. How about the cooling?
I had a 1988 Dodge Caravan w/ the Mitsubishi V6 (show room vehicle). The van was designed for the Mit. 4, but good ole Dodge threw in a v6 without ANY consideration of cooling, brakes, or transmission. They basically threw in a larger engine - period. Needless to say, the vehicle was bought back under the Lemon Law.
Remember the 914s? transplanting larger engines without upgrading brakes, cooling, chassis, transmission? Seems very similar IMHO.........

I would agree with Oops that a more complete upgrade package would have included upgraded brakes and suspension.....but what are the oem differences between boxster S and carrera S regarding cooling, brakes and suspension? Anybody know?

Let's get this thread back on topic, which is a classified...that means no negative posting....if you have questions about the item or the wisdom of the seller make them via private messages not in open forum per board rules...thanks

Sorry Chuck, I was not trying to be negative, but rather wondering what differences(cooling, brakes, suspension) Porsche built into the boxster s versus the carrera s, that the motor in question was designed for.
I had a boxster in this color combo, and its stunning.
