Talking News from RUF Sweden. Rt12 exhaust pipes and BBS centre bolt etc.

The sun is out and we're getting ready for the Porsche Parade 2006 in Gotheburg. This event is held in an European country every other year, time for Sweden this year!

We ordered the BBS centre bolt wheels in January. The season is short here so we were very frustrated until they finally turned up yesterday.
Apparently they are the world's first BBS Centre bolt this style (997 Cup) for a 996, but perhaps that's just what they told us to make us a bit happier.

Short spec for RUF R Turbo:
RUF 550 engine kit
70mm exhaust pipes RT12 style
Carbon fibre hood
Carbon fibre GT3 seats (soon to be leather)
Ohlins all around
BBS Centre bolt
GT2 wing
RUF front bumber
RUF mirrors / steering wheel / pedals / floor mats etc.
Performance friction brakes

Our new (for us) RUF Boxster S and the R Turbo

BBS Centre bolt





RT12 end pipes. Yes the "RUF" plate is genuine.



Performance Friction brakes





Performance friction with 18" RUF Modular (another car)

Here's a picture of the brakes before assembly:

Once these are mounted you don't go around borrowing wheels from your closest friend...

Also forgot to ask about that, how much is the RT12 exhaust, i loved the exhaust note it gave out, didnt sound that much like every other turbo exhaust, it had a good tone

What brake setup is that? Is it factory? Sorry for being stupid but I think it would be a nice upgrade for my car.
Thanks
JB
