. . . APR just dropped the Stage 3+ TVS1740 Upgrade for the 4.2L FSI V8 Audi R8. Might be time to start thinking about selling our TTRS and building ourselves a monster R8!

i understand wanting to be loyal to APR, but if you're going to do it, do it right. UGR Twin turbo kit.

If you knew what we know about UGR and R8's you wouldn't consider that anything resembling "doing it right".

… if were talking big power exotics, we would get ourselves a Lamborghini and go to town on making 1500+ whp

This fine APR Stage 2+ GTI is in for what we would consider to be awesome. After 100k miles of hard use, we have now seen our very first KW spring failure. It great to be able to see the operation of an aftermarket component stand up to the test of time. We see stock VW springs crack in the same manner in the past with far less miles.



All sorts of goodness going on here!



Lovely RS5 project we have in the shop currently!





t's an RS kind of morning today! RS5 Project is underway!



Interior shot of a BEAUTIFULLY built #becauseracecar by a very good friend of ours that is currently sitting in our shop awaiting a bit of attention. It has a fully built 2JZ in it, and makes 1200 RWHP on E98!









The one and only Mr. Ryan Jacobs was in yesterday to take care of a few issues!



996 C4S in for a service as well as some electrical diagnostics!



So this APR, LLC. Stage 3 Golf R Engine finally came back from machine work the beginning of this week, and we have been making steady progress on re-assembly! APR's 2.0T FSI Forged Rods & Pistons are currently installed!

could you clear that up at all? I haven't really heard anything negative about UGR's kits on the R8. I've seen some impressive numbers, and IIRC Brandon Jacob's UGR R8 ran well at the texas mile.

I mean the v10 in the R8 is the same in the lambo, so I can't imagine them "doing it wrong" (so to say) on the R8 considering their success with the lambo.

Unless the quattro, suspension, transmission were all fucked up.

I'm not saying they don't run well, keep in mind R8's are Direct Injection, Lamborghini's are not, thats all I'm going to say about that.

Ready to race!
nice clean shop. they flashed me from revo stage 2 to apr 2.

the revo tune was all sorts of fuvked up.
engine bucking during the cold season, boost dips where the curves cross during the summer, all fixed. they dialed in my alignment too.

will probably KO4 the car if JR give me a senior citizen discount. :D
