This is a seriously quick and seriously impressive MKVII Golf GTI. Talk about a fantastic run from a front wheel drive car! The 9-second elapsed time and the trap speed at the end of the 1/4 mile are absolutely fantastic results and world records. ...Published on 02-16-2022 11:01 PM
Interesting to see 93 octane versus E90 ethanol tuning numbers here on an A90 2-port B58 Toyota Supra. This Supra is sporting an ETS (Extreme Turbo Systems) Precision Turbo 6870 based turbo upgrade kit. ...Published on 02-16-2022 04:35 PM
Great news for Mercedes-AMG enthusiasts as two of the best in the business are working together to bring tuning packages to market. BlackBoost of course offers various hardware pieces and ECC Tuned is known for their comprehensive Mercedes-AMG software expertise. ...Published on 02-16-2022 04:11 PM
Professional motorsports is where the big boys play and there is no bigger playground than the 24 Hours of Le Mans. If you want to make a statement (as Ford did to Ferrari) this is where you do it. ...Published on 02-16-2022 03:43 PM
One hell of an F10 M5 here making monster numbers. The M5 features a built S63TU 4.4 liter V8 which makes sense at this level of power and torque. Do not forget the S63TU factory rods would tend to go first and it seems BMW addressed this with the S63TU2 in the F90 M5. ...Published on 02-16-2022 03:12 PM
For the 911 GT3 enthusiasts we have some great news. Kline is releasing their inconel 992 GT3 exhaust system and it is quite the piece. Of course there is the added sound benefit on the already amazing 9000 rpm flat-6 but it is also 45% lighter than the stock exhaust system. ...Published on 02-12-2022 03:44 PM
Great figures here from a set of upgraded VTG's on a Porsche 992 Turbo S. This car is tuned on 100 RON fuel which works out to roughly ~95 octane so a bit higher than what you can usually find at the pump in the USA without having to blend in ethanol. ...Published on 02-12-2022 02:31 PM
BMW and China are in bed together. Surprising? No. BMW is betting on that relationship growing as BMW Brilliance Automotive or BBA will now have majority BMW control. The Chinese government of course needed to approve the majority stake acquisition. ...Published on 02-12-2022 12:32 AM
As you know the Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series is the current Nurburgring production car lap champion and what an absolutely incredible achievement it is for Mercedes-AMG. Nurburgring factory test efforts are one thing, how does the car do in independent hands? ...Published on 02-11-2022 10:40 PM
Many of you know @kbaldi29 on the BoostAddict network and BenzBoost. He is the very talented tuner at Labworx Development and recently a question was posed on BenzBoost as to how CPC (Central Powertrain Control) tuning differs from TCU (Transmission Control Unit) tuning. ...Published on 02-11-2022 09:53 PM
Thus far Singer operated with naturally aspirated Porsche flat-6 motors. Utterly unbelievable built naturally aspirated and air cooled flat-6 motors. Singer is able to get 500 horsepower out of 4.0 liters without any boost at all. ...Published on 02-11-2022 09:13 PM
Ok, not quite 800 horsepower to all four wheels here but 797 is pretty darn close. This is a monster of a C8 Audi RS7 featuring hybrid turbochargers and bolt on modifications with tuning come from YD Motorsports. ...Published on 02-11-2022 08:13 PM
Weistec is doing a little bit of everything these days and it goes to show just how far their reach evolved past the early AMG tuning days. That reach now includes high end exotics such as Ferrari as this tuned 488 Pista example shows. ...Published on 02-10-2022 10:30 PM
Over 700 horsepower to the wheels here out of a G80 M3 Competition on the factory S58 turbos. What Midnite Tuning posted is fairly interesting as they swapped their JB4 for an S58 custom ECU flash tune from Visconti Tuning. ...Published on 02-10-2022 09:02 PM
We sure are seeing a lot of this lately in the Porsche 911 world, aren't we? There is of course Singer, Gunther Werks, and of course RUF. Well Strosek is another tuner souping up a classic 911 design with modern bits. ...
