This is something different and admittedly cool. You no doubt have seen people do raised white letters on tires. Pirelli is allowing customers to choose whatever color they want to accent their P Zero Color Edition tires. ...Published on 11-02-2017 08:11 PM
Road and Track gets this right although there are some surprising results in the 2018 Performance Car of the Year competition. Giving the crown to the 720S despite it being bested on the track by not one but two cheaper cars will make this controversial. ...Published on 10-27-2017 05:39 PM
This thing is absurd! APR announced their development of ECU tuning software for the new Audi 2.5 TFSI turbo I5 motor a couple weeks back. Well, that development is going very well as evidenced by this Stage I APR tuned 8V Audi RS3 sedan. ...Published on 10-26-2017 08:32 PM
APR released their Stage I tune for the Lamborghini Huracan and Audi R8 V10 Plus a couple months back. The tune has E85 support and picks up 47 horsepower at all four wheels on ethanol fuel. ...Published on 10-25-2017 09:11 PM
Tuning on the 2.5 TFSI platform is moving so quickly it is hard to keep up. Various tuners are offering tunes already for the new TT-RS and RS3 sedan but those in Europe got to play with the 8V RS3 earlier. ...Published on 10-25-2017 08:01 PM
This is a very cool video comparison by Mazda that gets right to the point. You should already know how fuel combusts in traditional gasoline and diesel internal combustion engines. If not, Mazda offers a great and simple overview here. ...Published on 10-24-2017 08:55 PM
This maybe is not as crazy or complex as it first seems. Keep in mind that moving turbos closer and closer to the motor to minimize exhaust travel distance is something manufacturers are all doing in an effort to decrease lag. ...Published on 10-24-2017 01:21 AM
The Audi SQ5 gets a big update in getting the single turbo top mount twin scroll turbo 3.0 liter V6 out of the B9 Audi S5 and S4. Rated at 354 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque it certainly has a lot of potential. ...Published on 10-21-2017 04:11 PM
Damn. The TT-RS sure moves, doesn't it? Yes, this is still tune only. Compare it to the previous 10-second results with the Stage I Unitronic software. They picked up almost three miles per hour of trap speed but the elapsed time did not improve. ...Published on 10-20-2017 07:33 PM
If you are looking for mid-level sport sedan this one should probably be right at the top of your list. The 2017 Audi RS3 offers a lot of performance and technology for the asking price of $55,450. ...Published on 10-20-2017 06:33 PM
If you pay attention to the world of high performance cars you know there are spectacularly fast twin turbo Lamborghini Huracans and Nissan GT-R's. Tuners pushing the limits in competition is great for enthusiasts and potential customers alike. ...Published on 10-20-2017 05:37 PM
Have you ever heard of DarwinPro? Well, if not you are not alone. They do not seem to have much a web presence and they sell their body kits on Ebay. Some exposure is deserved as just take a look at this carbon fiber widebody RS6 Avant. ...Published on 10-18-2017 05:33 PM
There are few details here from Russian tuner Altechnoracing but they do provide a graph of what is a second generation Audi TT-RS 2.5 TFSI topping 1000 horsepower a the crank. It makes 1006 horsepower and 770 lb-ft of torque at the crank to be accurate. ...Published on 10-18-2017 04:50 PM
This is definitely one we have all been waiting to see. Hopes are high for the new B9 generation Audi RS5 and its twin turbo EA839 2.9 liter V6. The engine should prove to be a popular tuning platform and it is shared with the Porsche Panamera 4S. ...Published on 10-17-2017 05:22 PM
There is a lot of tuning talk about the new Audi TT-RS and Audi RS3 models with the updated 2.5 TFSI dual fuel injected I5 turbo motor. Recently, the MKIII Audi TT-RS broke into the 10's in the 1/4 mile tune only. This begged the question, where is the biggest name in Audi tuning and what are they doing on the platform? ...
