Excelerate Performance: Northeast Audi & VW Performance and Service Center

Making good use of our new SnapOn charging system while flashing APR ECU and DSG software. It's important to maintain proper voltage to the ECU and we spare no expense when it comes to tools and equipment.


In typical APR, LLC. fashion, a complete, plug and play solution for a boost gauge for the MK7 Golf, GTI, Golf R has been designed. There is no wiring or cutting with this setup. Just a plug and play setup.
APR's pleased to present the MK7 Golf, GTI and Golf R Vent Mounted Boost Gauge System!
The APR Boost Gauge System features a high quality and accurate electronic 52mm gauge with smooth and precise movement thanks to microprocessor driven stepper motor. The gauge’s anti-fogging polycarbonate lens allows reliable vent-mounted operation without fogging as is common on units without this design specification. Visual design cues were borrowed from the MK7 Golf, GTI and Golf R instrument clusters to deliver a dimmable LED backlit face with multiple needle colors that look right at home within the vehicle’s interior. The gauge seats neatly inside a high-quality injection-molded vent mounted pod, resembling the OEM design, allows airflow to continue past the unit and still allows operation of the vent airflow control.
APR’s plug-and-play wiring harness eliminates the headaches typically associated with integrating gauges into the factory system. The harness simply plugs into the gauge and into the factory wiring harness, eliminating the need to cut, splice and permanently alter the factory wiring with specialty tools. It’s quick, simple, and carries the quality one would expect from APR.
A high-resolution 3 Bar MAP sensor mounts conveniently and tidily within the engine bay on a simple and effective firewall mounting bracket and provides the gauge with a means for reading boost and vacuum signals. OEM style wiring harness covers protect the wiring harness and provide a cleaner install and appearance. The MAP sensor needs a physical reference line to the intake manifold, and as such, APR recommends the APR Boost Tap System as the preferred delivery method.

We stayed busy today here at Excelerate Performance and flashed five VW 2.0T TSI cars with APR, LLC.! Remember, we flash software without appointments, and using the OBD port means it's less than 30 minutes to get sometimes as much as 40-50% gains over stock.
A loyal customer of ours here at Excelerate Performance had brought us his B7 RS4 for a clutch. Once the transmission was removed from the car, our technicians discovered excessive wear on the input shaft. So, the clutch was replaced with a JHM 3R unit alongside a JHM Shifter, Stabilizer, and Linkage. Since the transmission was removed it made the decision to add Apikol transmission mounts and rear differential mount that much easier. Once the lift was lowered the RS4 was pulled onto our state of the art Hunter Engineering Hawkeye alignment rack. To top off the build, Josh flashed the car with APR, LLC. software.

Paul's spicy yet tasty Misano Red B7 RS4 came in for similar transmission issues like is Sprint Blue Brother above among other things. This car also received the JHM 3R clutch kit, syncros one and two, and 2second gear was also replaced. Like any 4.2L Audi V8, the engine was thoroughly inspected it while it was out as a precautionary measure. Attention to detail is what Excelerate Performance is about.
