There will be some debate here as this is not achieved on an NHRA accredited strip but what appears to be a makeshift dragstrip with non-standard timing equipment. Regardless, the 4.0 TFSI V8 platform is long overdue for 9-second passes. ...Published on 10-10-2018 03:23 PM
You already knew it was a matter of time but Iroz is trying hard to crack into the 9's on the stock Audi 2.5 TFSI turbocharger. They also have another car trying for 8's but the point to take away from this is the 2.5 TFSI is the hottest platform in the tuning game right now. ...Published on 10-09-2018 09:20 PM
This is good news for those who do not want to a wait for a proper ECU tune. ABT announced they are blessing the US market with their piggyback tune for the EA839 3.0 V6 in the Audi B9 S4 and S5. ...Published on 10-05-2018 09:26 PM
Yes electric cars are the future but for now they can not match top internal combustion engines when it comes to performance. Electric performance is evolving as Formula E shows and German tuner ABT decided to borrow from their Formula E program for a street car. ...Published on 10-03-2018 11:31 PM
Audi B9 S4 and S5 tuning is taking a back seat compared to the 8V RS3 sedan and the TT-RS. Why? Because the 2.5 TFSI ECU is cracked and tuneable whereas the B9 S4 and S5 EA839 3.0 twin scroll top mount turbo V6 ECU is still posing problems. ...Published on 10-03-2018 10:34 PM
APR provides more data than anyone in the business with new product releases (various fuels, crank numbers, wheel numbers, flow numbers, etc.) but independent testing to verify claims is extremely important to keep tuners honest. ...Published on 10-02-2018 09:21 PM
You could say Audi fired the first salvo in the super sedan power war that rages until today. Back when BMW had the E39 M5 and Mercedes-AMG felt 350 horsepower was plenty for the W210 E55 AMG Audi showed up in 2003 with a 450 horsepower twin turbo V8 sedan with all wheel drive. ...Published on 10-01-2018 09:32 PM
This comparison is from Tyre Review on Youtube and worth watching as they compare three popular Michelin performance tires. Tire technology makes huge strides over time and this is an area any car can pick up large performance gains from. ...Published on 10-01-2018 06:56 PM
The APR Intercooler System is a massive front mounted upgrade that dramatically reduces intake air temperature (IAT), minimizes heat soak, and provides increased performance! The system is an easy to install, direct bolt-on design, that is recommended at every stage of performance. ...Published on 09-29-2018 09:21 PM
Las Vegas is a lot of things but a place to set drag racing records it is not. Not to say it is impossible as that is exactly what Iroz Motorsport did with their IMS850 RS3 sedan. If they can run 9.4 in Vegas, they can run 9.4 anywhere. ...Published on 09-29-2018 08:36 PM
Audi 3.0 TFSI supercharged V6 tuning is still kicking and a B8.5 S4 recently set a new quickest pass for the TFSI V6 platform on the stock supercharger. The 10.792 at 126.69 mile per hour pass comfortably exceeds all other 3.0 TFSI V6 passes as the quickest to date. ...Published on 09-27-2018 05:27 PM
This run certainly puts in perspective how potent the Audi RS3 is with bolt ons on E85 ethanol. The GT-R that goes up against the RS3 is said to be a 135 mile per hour car. That certainly qualifies as potent on the highway. ...Published on 09-26-2018 09:41 PM
On paper this might sound like a mismatch but there was actually a time where an RS4 Avant could put the fear of god into any Porsche 911 Carrera in the lineup including the GTS. That was all the way back with the Audi B5 generation RS4 and things have certainly changed quite a bit since then. ...Published on 09-26-2018 08:04 PM
THE-Tuner is a German shop that offers various Audi upgrades including a B5 S4 and RS4 turbo kit based around the TTE1200 turbochargers. If you're wondering, the TTE1200 turbos are the real deal as they powered a B5 S4 to 1200 awhp and helped it smoke a Bugatti Chiron. ...Published on 09-25-2018 09:32 PM
There are some really bad shops out there. This is not the first time a shop crashed a customer's car when doing things in it they were not supposed to and it will not be the last. In the early years of BimmerBoost the story that got the most traffic that was when Discovery Automotive wrecked a customer's Ford GT. ...
