RUF 3.6 on ebay

[blue2000s]

Is RUF working on Ferraris these days? There are a couple in those pictures.

that is a very nice looking car.

how much HP does something like this have??? if you want the power of a 911 but really really want the look/drop top/balance of a boxster - this is the car to get.

i'm going to guess there's NO warranty on that bad boy! if THAT motor went boom - it must be serious coin to replace.

According to another forum it dynoed 373HP

Here is a link to RUF's conversions for the Boxster:

That specific conversion has about 355 HP at the crank, so I don't think it could dyno at 373. Maybe 300 with a 15% powertrain loss figured in.

These conversions run well north of $25K by RUF.

Actually, this conversion runs just about exactly $25k.

The wheels and tires alone are about >$5K.

Right, sorry for not being complete. The engine from intake to exhaust is $25K. The entire package is about $40k including suspension and body, give or take.
