Remember when a couple months back AudiBoost posted an article that 8's were coming for the new 2.5 TFSI? Well, we were just slightly premature. The best pass to date in the 1/4 mile for an 8V Audi RS3 sedan or otherwise is 9.019 @ 157.01. ...Published on 11-13-2018 08:28 PM
You have to give HRE props here for doing something different as their new designs seemed to stagnate. The end result here is not the most aesthetically pleasing wheel as it looks like something out of a Lego Technic kit but it certainly is different and points toward future design methods. ...Published on 11-13-2018 06:34 PM
This is a bold claim from TVS Engineering and one AudiBoost has yet to see proof of. Not that we doubt them as their recent 800+ horsepower MKII Audi TTS demonstrates impressive Audi dual clutch gearbox upgrades and control. ...Published on 11-08-2018 05:45 PM
This 4.0 TFSI V8 turbo upgrade from Turbo Systems seems to be the real deal. You saw this turbo option power a C7 RS7 into the 9's recently and Turbosystems posted a dyno of the car. ...Published on 11-07-2018 08:02 PM
The truth is the vast majority of 2.5 TFSI Audis will see mild tuning rather than big turbo upgrades and so forth. Which is great as the 2.5 TFSI is a very stout bolt on platform. It puts up impressive performance figures even with software tuning only. ...Published on 11-07-2018 06:13 PM
McLaren kicked dust in Ferrari's face since they launched the MP4-12C back in 2011. It was not even close between the two. Well, it appears the 488 Pista is Ferrari finally fighting back if Autocar's 2018 best driver's car results are to be believed. ...Published on 11-06-2018 04:20 PM
If you have never heard of TVS Engineering you are not alone. They are a VAG tuner in the Netherlands and they demonstrate some impressive control of the DQ gearboxes and the TCU. This MKII TTS with over 800 horsepower is a good example. ...Published on 11-06-2018 03:12 PM
This is an interesting setup and drag racers have messed around with volute injection for a while now. Essentially, you are spraying water/methanol directly into the compressor housing. Prometh says this increases the efficiency of the compressor output. ...Published on 11-06-2018 02:51 PM
This is impressive for several reasons. First of all, cars that can repeat 9-second performance on the street do not exactly grow on trees. Secondly, this is a full weight R8 running 9's on 93 octane pump fuel and only 7 psi of boost. ...Published on 11-05-2018 05:01 PM
The EA839 V6 ECU whether in the B9 R4 or RS4 is not yet cracked. That said, BMS has been helping various turbo builders with tuning using their JB4 piggyback on the platform to get turbo upgrades working. ...Published on 11-05-2018 04:23 PM
Everyone knows the advantages of carbon fiber and various modern composites. Light weight while having very high strength. Metal still rules the engine building world but consider carbon fiber connecting rods for a moment. ...Published on 11-02-2018 07:01 PM
It is a great time to be an Audi enthusiast especially on the 2.5 TFSI platform. It feels like everyone is making a ton of power and there are a plethora of turbocharger upgrade options. TTE (The Turbo Engineers Germany) has a TTE700 upgrade for the platform. ...Published on 11-01-2018 04:52 PM
Improving the flow and removing restriction of the intake tract is a long time tried and true way to gain power when tuning. Modern airboxes tend to be pretty well designed but Forge Motorsport was able to show some nice gains on the Audi 4.0 TFSI V8. ...Published on 10-31-2018 10:52 AM
A lot of money is being thrown around by Sentinel Capital Partners and their latest acquisition is the well known Holley Performance Products brand. This brand will be combined with Driven Performance Performance Brands. ...Published on 10-30-2018 01:33 PM
It was just a matter of time and APR is the first to accomplish the goal. A 9-second pass on the factory 2.5 TFSI turbocharger! This was accomplished with an RS3 sedan that had some weight stripped out of it. Regardless, a tremendous achievement. ...
