obevz Posted December 24, 2006 Report Share Posted December 24, 2006 Hello from Australia...I have a 2000 A8, I had it chipped-up, installed custom ss extractors with cats, and added 20" S8 rims...recently had it dyno-modified to provide 12.5:1 air-fuel mix and some other stuff and get 151.9kw at the wheels. Not enough I say...does anybody know where I can get a turbo upgrade kit for my car? Has anybody done this already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SneakyMcC Posted December 24, 2006 Report Share Posted December 24, 2006 Hi aussieA8! Welcome to the site! I think supercharging has been suggested cause of the lower end grunt they can provide. Recent turbo’s are now doing the same in manufacturer installations, but I dont know of any or how they'd compare? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was behind the buildings we were working on the R8's in. It was rather exceptional. The engineer who showed it to us got rather severly repermanded for it. Some of the best looking plumbing I had ever seen. [/ QUOTE ] i'll see if i can get him to register Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obevz Posted December 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2006 Here is a copy of the test results. Please note that the 151kw "at the wheels" was in 3rd gear, at around 175kph (around 110 mph. the red line is the before dyno-change and the blue line is the post change. You will note there are 5 "missing" files. These were the incremental corrections modifications made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
