Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

If you haven't seen it, I've got pics on p14 of my website.
and from the back...
Hum! great! i think the lines are well respected by Ruf.
Where are the rear scoops? Sure that isn't a C2 with turbo front & rear? Also, looks a little narrow in the hips....hmmmmmm?
Historically, Ruf has always specialized in placing turbo engines in narrow-bodied 911s, because of the lower drag coefficient. This started with the famous "Yellow Bird" (CTR), which was a 550 hp turbo engine in an Carrera 3.2 body...
The picture of the Turbo cab Tip is with Alois Ruf, himself, driving. That is a real Ruf car.
someone asked why no air scoops. The srticle suggests that RUF reversed the engine grille slats to that more air is drawn into the engine compartment thus negating the need for airscoops. Gee, I wonder why Porsche didn't think of that!
Oh, and one other thing. Reason it's a TipS is because this is a customer car and they ordered it that way.
and the customer is a 60 year-old woman...
