I agree.

How are they getting 450HP out of a n/a 3.8L??? Something isn't jiving there.

why is that?

its a specialist / tuner engine after all, and the specific output isn't that far off from the GT3's...

basically its a Ruf RGT (3.8L, normally aspirated,) but with a LOT of full-on Cup car bits: the sequential tranny, on-board jacks, racing instruments and dash, etc.

there's a lot of very tiny detail work typical of Ruf. with the front turn indicators replaced by the ducts, the little "bumps" in front of the headlamps, that look like headlamp washers are actually LED's that do the indicator light duties. AFAIK, the car is still street legal after all.
Very cool.
