Adding power is one thing but keeping the car cool with increased boost pressure and WOT driving is an entirely different issue. Do not skimp on cooling or your next track day or launch in summer weather may trigger a limp mode when you least expect or want it. ...Published on 02-19-2020 08:31 PM
Incredible numbers here considering this MKV/A90 Toyota Supra is completely stock other than the EcuTek software suite paired with some ethanol. Equilibrium Tuning did the tuning work and the results are impressive. ...Published on 02-19-2020 07:45 PM
Usually styling is an Aston Martin strong point where one does not need to modify the factory design. Well, it seems even Aston Martin finally had enough of the grill design on the new Vantage and went back to their classic style on the Vantage Roadster. ...Published on 02-19-2020 06:56 PM
What you are looking at is a new product currently under development by TiAL Sport which will soon undergo rigorous testing. What is it? A 991.2 9A2B6 3.0 turbo inlet designed for the TiAL M660 turbocharger upgrade. ...Published on 02-19-2020 06:22 PM
If you own a Lamborghini Urus you have several widebody kit options on the market. It seems there is a need for owners to customize their Lambo SUV and 1016 Industries has two widebody options if you have the cash. ...Published on 02-19-2020 05:20 PM
BMW is going to stretch the 8-series platform to as many variants as they can. That is the game today and this is the 'four-door' coupe version of the 8-Series or the G16 chassis. It certainly looks great as a four-door but the already heavy platform gains weight. ...Published on 02-19-2020 05:04 PM
Have you ever thought of subscribing to Nissan to try out all their cars? It is doubtful there are many people clamoring for this. Nissan is offering to tiers at $699 per month and $899 per month that will let you sample the brand's cars (after you pay the $495 activation fee). ...Published on 02-19-2020 04:52 PM
Another 800+ wheel horsepower S55 this time powered by VTT (Vargas Turbo Technologies) GC turbochargers. This is an F82 M4 that is using a JB4 stack meaning a BEF (back end flash) in concert with the BMS piggyback. ...Published on 02-17-2020 01:35 PM
BBi is a Porsche shop and tuner located in Orange County, California. They are primarily known for their installation and track work services. They do have an in-house tuner named Jared Deputy who was able to do a Protune on this 991.2 Carrera 4 GTS. ...Published on 02-17-2020 01:13 PM
There was a time when a 7:43.92 would be lauded. That was a long time ago. We do not expect Aston Martin to be on the ragged edge of performance but for context the AMG GT S is said to do a comfortable 7:35. So why is the Aston Martin almost 10-seconds off? ...Published on 02-17-2020 12:54 PM
The GT500 offers tremendous tuning value. If you can add a few bolt on modifications and run with a McLaren 720S, that is some very big bang for your buck. The GT500 in this video is making roughly ~800 rear wheel horsepower which is hardly pushing the motor. ...Published on 02-17-2020 12:24 PM
It seems you can teach an old dog new tricks. The N55 is well known for having the weakest factory turbo and torque curve of all modern turbocharged and direct injected BMW I6 powerplants. The factory curve is comically bad. ...Published on 02-14-2020 11:39 PM
Mercedes-AMG had one distinctive advantage in the previous generation tuning wars. Displacement. The M157 5.5 liter V8 may not be the highest revver but it provided plenty of brute force and in turn torque down low. Look at these Dynojet figures below. ...Published on 02-14-2020 09:52 PM
EcuTek's entry in the BMW world is providing stout competition to established tuners and opening up new tuning options. It's a great thing to see. Posted below are results from Paul Murray at RS Tuning on a BMW F87 M2 Competition using the EcuTek software suite. ...Published on 02-14-2020 08:30 PM
Mercedes-AMG dominates Formula 1. This simply the truth with the past sixt Constructors Championships all going to Mercedes-AMG. This ties a record by Ferrari and seven straight would set a new record which no doubt Ferrari wants to stop at all costs. ...
