I saw a very nice 996 today. It had "Rturbo" on the engine cover. What is this? Is it factory or some aftermarket tuner's version?

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.

Depends... It can be the 996 Turbo engine conversion which is starting out with a regular Porsche Turbo engine and having it then converted to RUF Rturbo specs which is i believe 520 hp up from 420 hp. If it was a RUF Rturbo it would have the full RUF works such as their website states. A RUF from the factory is it's own car carrying a RUF VIN # not a Porsche VIN. Anyone car to help explain it better? DCM if you do a "search" for Rturbo video i think you will find Adam T's red RUF Rturbo up against his families other RUF the CTR Yellowbird. Awesome vid of RUF's at play. my $.02 harrY
