I am working with GMG racing to develop a twin turbo(Fabryce is quite the Audi expert)...the car is there now getting the exhaust done. The R and D will take about two months.

Huge power!
The R8 has become a tuner car of choice. Amazing that the V10 is being enhanced so soon.

If MTM is making it, then I am anticipating a $100,000 price tag for the turbo kit. LOL
They are ridiculously expensive.

Very true......MTM to Audi is what Dinan is to BMW. IOW, they have more of a freakish cult fallowing that is too expensive for the general population to take serious, so we marvel from the sidelines. You get what you pay for I guess!

Thats is correct we are working on a fully engineered twin turbo kit for the R8 V10.

This kit will be completely designed developed and built at GMG tuned and tested on 91 octane for U.S. spec cars.

Stay tuned!
