Well, we finally have a 10-second Audi RS5 and 10-second 2.9 liter EA839 V6. What is somewhat amusing is the 3.0 liter EA839 in the B9 S4 and S5 has the performance lead right now and it is not by a small margin. ...Published on 12-06-2019 08:56 PM
The Cannonball run is something of legend in American automotive circles and the famous coast to coast United States run spawned two movies in the 80's. These days, the endeavor is something people take on by themselves and it is more difficult than ever due to law enforcement. ...Published on 12-05-2019 08:05 PM
Now we are starting to cook with gas! Take a look at this very impressive Audi B9 S5 1/4 mile pass from an S5 EA839 3.0 with the Pure Turbos Stage 2 hybrid turbo upgrade. The car managed to hit 10.585 @ 134.39 miles per hour. ...Published on 12-03-2019 06:40 PM
Here is yet another billet engine block option for the Audi/Lamborghini 5.2 liter V10 and it is from Heffner Performance in association with Fountain Race Engines. For those wondering, Fountain Race Engines is well known in the offshore powerboat racing scene. ...Published on 11-27-2019 02:54 PM
It is starting to feel like everyone has a turbo kit for the Lambo/Audi 5.2 V10 engine platform. This is not all that surprising considering what a potent platform it is. Just look at this second generation Audi R8 V10 1/4 mile result. ...Published on 11-27-2019 02:34 PM
A huge part of getting a healthy ET (elapsed time) in drag racing is having the proper rubber. Modern brakes on performance cars are quite big so going to a smaller wheel to have tires with plenty of sidewall often necessitates the need for a drag racing brake conversion. ...Published on 11-26-2019 06:20 PM
This is something that will garner interest from Audi 8V RS3 and 8S TT-RS 2.5 TFSI enthusiasts. Unitronic released a new carbon fiber intake for the 2.5 TFSI EA855 EVO motor that offer a major increase in airflow over stock. ...Published on 11-26-2019 05:14 PM
When you get way up there in 2.5 TFSI output block integrity becomes a concern. Race Developments UK does not say at what level you need to think about reinforcing cylinder walls or what this will handle but they are responsible for some extremely strong 2.5 TFSI motors. ...Published on 11-21-2019 06:45 AM
Remember back in 2018 when composite (carbon fiber) connecting rods debuted at SEMA? They retailed for $18,000.00 and the idea was for a drag racing team to buy a set as it would cut down on costs eventually and be much more reliable. ...Published on 11-14-2019 12:21 AM
This is really what we wanted to see out of the RS5 out of the box. Speaking of which, adding the JB4 tuning box to the equation gets the B9 generation Audi RS5 performing much more like AudiBoost expected it to. ...Published on 11-06-2019 05:51 PM
Remember the 2018 Audi RS RWS? The rear wheel drive R8 V10 was a limited edition model that came only as a coupe. Audi is bringing back the rear wheel drive R8 and naming it the RWD V10 which makes a lot of sense. ...Published on 11-06-2019 02:50 PM
There is some chatter about these output claims from Weistec for their Stage II EA839 3.0 engine tune for the B9 Audi S4 and S5 models. You already saw the numbers from their Stage I ECU tune which is with software only. ...Published on 11-06-2019 01:14 PM
Garrett is making some bold statements here with their three new 'mild frame' G30/G35 turbochargers. You have the G30-900, G35-950, and G33-1050 which Garrett states do not have an equal from the competition at the moment at the moment. ...Published on 11-05-2019 04:31 PM
Sorry to play spoiler but seeing the Hyundai Veloster N win a Performance Car comparison that includes some very nice hardware makes you scratch your head. BoostAddict will defend Road and Track's choice though but not because the Veloster N is the best performance car produced in 2020. ...Published on 11-04-2019 04:20 PM
How is this for bolt on performance? VTT (Vargas Turbocharger Technologies) is working on their shop RS3 and compiling performance data before switching the factory turbocharger out for their GC (cast) 2.5 TFSI turbocharger upgrade. ...
