Why pay RUF to do something that EVOM.com does better, with more power and less boost for half the price? Oh yeah...because of the name?

How do you know they do it better - have you had experience with both of them ?

All I am saying is I know both tuners - I have respect for both of them - they all know this - but how does one make a statement like that w/o seat time and experience with both products ?

I have a line on a cheap 997 coupe from a bud going through a divorce so I was thinking this route instead of waiting for the 997 TT

No one ?

I think this is much more attractive than the TT, if the reliability is acceptable.

A ruf test driver drove med in a C2 Compressor.
Very nice almost, if not the same, like a 996TT.

Forget the hp, check the performance figures.

The Ruf compressor comes with warranty, but there are a lot of other differences if you study more than just the price.

dj, go for it. You won't regret it.
pm me your e-mail and I can send you something.

RUF Dallas will have a 997 soon with the RUF compressor, or supercharger as you call it.
