The new Audi TT RS coupe is definitely a fast model, but thanks to the efforts of German tuning house AVUS Performance, it has truly reached a formidable level, offering a huge amount of power from its small 2.5-liter five-cylinder supercharged engine: 450 HP and 472 lb-ft (639 Nm) of torque.
In order to reach this new power threshold, the team added a modified turbo, a new, reprogrammed ECU and a new exhaust system. All of the tweaks mean that the new Audi TT RS Ur Quattro will reach 60 mph (96 km/h) from a standstill in just 3.8 seconds, and will keep on going way past its normal limit of 280 km/h until 312 km/h (194 mph). These engine modifications weren’t priced sadly.
In order to handle all of the extra speed and to go over corners more tightly, a set of adjustable coil-over suspension springs were fitted, which cost about €1,299. On the outside, AVUS added a matte black vinyl wrap, which costs €1,999, and a set of 20-inch glossy black rims, wrapped in Hankook S1 Evo tires, which coupled with the discount the company is offering for rims and tires of 25%, will set you back “just” €6,400. Other accessories, like Recaro sports seats can also be added if your wallet allows it.
