The Akrapovic R8 Titanium Slip-on system retains the primary catalysts, but removes the secondary ones. The system boasts gains of 11 HP/6800 RPM and 12 TQ/5000 RPM with no ECU reprogramming necessary, and a weight savings of 36 LBS.
It’s always great to see people pushing performance in new innovative ways, especially in places you wouldn’t ordinarily expect. Take Audi’s supercar, the R8, for example. The sleek lines, mid-engine design, and V8 performance are more than enough to excite the average car enthusiast. However, for some, the R8’s base 350 whp is just not enough. That’s where the guys from Heffner Performance step in. Heffner Performance is an industry leader in induction systems, parts, accessories, and performance upgrades for high end exotics such as Lamborghinis, Ford GTs, Dodge Vipers, and now the Audi R8. Heffner Performance has now completed their Audi R8 Twin Turbo Kit and cranks out an awesome 530 whp at 6 psi. That’s Lambo/Ferrari territory! Check it out:
