This is really what we wanted to see out of the RS5 out of the box. Speaking of which, adding the JB4 tuning box to the equation gets the B9 generation Audi RS5 performing much more like AudiBoost expected it to. ...Published on 11-14-2019 12:16 AM
Well, here it finally is! Apologies to our readers for taking so long but setting up such a test is not easy. The blessing in disguise is that a new option made the comparison and that option is made out of inconel and it is an engineering collaboration between Mimo Technik and SPW (Specialty Precision Welding). ...Published on 11-13-2019 11:45 PM
TTE (The Turbo Engineers) are known for solid hybrid upgrades that are reliable. Their products work as evidenced by their BMW F82 M4 running their TTE740+ S55 hybrid turbo upgrade with oversized inlets. ...Ferrari launches 2020 Roma GT with 612 horsepower twin turbo V8 and 8-speed dual clutch transmission

Where did this come from? Ferrari seemingly pulled a new GT car out of nowhere. This is a vehicle that shares the California T wheelbase and an F154 twin turbo V8 variant so apparently the idea was to make a GT 2+2 coupe version of the California T or Portofino platform. ...Published on 11-06-2019 06:34 PM
Finally we are seeing more and more 600+ rear wheel horsepower N55's as well as some nice results for BMW motors with BorgWarner EFR turbochargers. This F30 335i is an automatic and features the BorgWarner EFR 8374 turbo. ...Published on 11-06-2019 05:51 PM
Remember the 2018 Audi RS RWS? The rear wheel drive R8 V10 was a limited edition model that came only as a coupe. Audi is bringing back the rear wheel drive R8 and naming it the RWD V10 which makes a lot of sense. ...Published on 11-06-2019 05:33 PM
The new Corvette has everyone excited but it seems GM will not be able to deliver the hot new product by the end of the year. The 2020 Corvette will instead officially debut in 2020 as production will take place in February. ...Published on 11-06-2019 02:50 PM
There is some chatter about these output claims from Weistec for their Stage II EA839 3.0 engine tune for the B9 Audi S4 and S5 models. You already saw the numbers from their Stage I ECU tune which is with software only. ...Published on 11-06-2019 02:41 PM
ESMotor continues to crush it on the 991 Turbo platform. This is their ES1200 turbo kit for the 991 Turbo featured on a Porsche 991.2 Turbo S. To get the most out of this turbo upgrade you will need a built motor and upgraded PDK. ...Published on 11-06-2019 01:14 PM
Garrett is making some bold statements here with their three new 'mild frame' G30/G35 turbochargers. You have the G30-900, G35-950, and G33-1050 which Garrett states do not have an equal from the competition at the moment at the moment. ...Published on 11-05-2019 10:12 PM
PureBoost.de has a heck of a turbo setup for the MKV/A90 Toyota Supra and its BMW B58 motor. They tested their kit in their own Supra shop and put up some impressive numbers. The turbo kit is now available for sale. ...Published on 11-05-2019 10:01 PM
There are fanboys running around claiming Tesla is now lapping the Nurburgring 29 seconds quicker than the Taycan. Let's hold off on claiming the Tesla the king of EV Nurburgring sedan performance just yet. ...Published on 11-05-2019 07:33 PM
This is interesting and perhaps explains why the G80 M3 is delayed until 2021 instead of debuting as a 2020 model. Hot on the heels of a BMW executive confirming spy pics were accurate a new spy video shows a BMW G80 M3 testing with the traditional kidney grill style. ...Published on 11-05-2019 04:51 PM
Now this is more like it. It still is not a proper GT 2+2 configuration with an iron block I6 from Toyota but at least it looks like a Supra now. TRD (Toyota Racing Development) went to work on this MKV and the result is gorgeous. ...Published on 11-05-2019 04:31 PM
Sorry to play spoiler but seeing the Hyundai Veloster N win a Performance Car comparison that includes some very nice hardware makes you scratch your head. BoostAddict will defend Road and Track's choice though but not because the Veloster N is the best performance car produced in 2020. ...
