- German carmaker RUF revealed the most extreme of the 991-tuned Ruf models and it's called the RCT and it offers some stuff that the normal 991 911 Turbo can't. First of all, the RCT's 3.8L boxer-6 turbo engine generates 525HP of power and it's mated to either a 7-speed doppelkupplungsgetriebe or a 7-speed manual gearbox. It's available in either a 4WD or an RR. A normal 991 Turbo doesn't have those stuff like the manual gearbox and the rear-wheel drive (save it for the next GT2)!
