ACHTUNING! - 425.895.0000

All STaSIS Streetsport applications at Achtuning are $100 off MSRP. Arthur stopped in today and dropped off his 3.2 FSI Audi B7 A4 with us to take advantage of the savings and get a set installed on his car.

STaSIS Streetsport Coil-Overs are by far the best bang-for-buck coil-over kit on the market! Contact us right away to get in on your savings.

We were visited by three Pacific Northwest (vwvortex forum) members yesterday… They were here to pick up new sets of 19s for their Audis.

First, we have Mike and his beautiful wife Charlotte’s C5 A6 2.7T… Lowered on KW suspension, this car hugs the 19″ Hartmann G5 wheels so tightly, the tie rods are about to pop!

I hear Mike plans to bring the fronts down even more!!

Then we’ve got “Gaki”. Originally planning to go with a set of clearanced TSW wheels, he talked himself into our Hartmann line with the AR8 wheels in 19×8.5 and a 38mm offset. Lowered on STaSIS Streetsport Coil-Overs, the stance on this B7 A4 with the R8 wheels is just stunning. Good choice, Anthony.

All 19″ Hartmann Wheel purchases are currently eligible to receive a set of 235/35-19 Dunlop Sport Maxx tires mounted and balanced for free and at a cost of $600 for the set - a $200 savings from leading tire distributors like Tire Rack!!

New Lower Prices!

We have a few sets of wheels we’re looking to clear out here to help get our warehouse organized. Please let us know if you have any questions on fitments or anything else

Dave Meister stopped by to grab some raffle items we are giving away for the 2008 WaterWërks event so I snapped a couple of pictures since he recently installed our 328×28mm StopTech Big Brake Kit for the Mk4s.

StopTech’s Mk4 BBK includes 2 piece floating directional 328mm x 28mm slotted rotors with 7075 T6 billet aluminum hats, 4 piston ST-40 calipers, stainless steel front brake lines and AXXIS Ultimate front brake pads.

Stoptech Big Brake Kits give your vehicle that Supercar look and feel, and exceed stock performance in two areas. First, larger rotors increase heat capacity. Second, stiffer calipers and stainless steel lines reduce system compliance.

The key, however, is to increase heat capacity and reduce compliance without upsetting the stock front to rear brake torque ratio. If the brake upgrade you select adds too much front torque (as many do), you reduce your car’s ability to utilize the tractive capacity of all of the tires to the maximum practical extent (even on ABS equipped cars) and you therefore create performance sacrifices. In addition, too many pistons or pistons that are too large will make the brake pedal much more difficult to modulate, which limits a driver’s control of brake input on the race track. This StopTech kit is a perfect balanced brake upgrade for the Mk4.

We’ve got a few of these kits left on the shelf for those who want to get in on the sweet deal - $1495!!

We’ve been anticipating the delivery of the new exhaust system that APR released for the Mk5 GTI 2.0T FSI featuring it’s latest “RSC™ Performance Exhaust Technology” and it’s finally here!!

In stock, ready to ship!!

“Reflective Sound Cancellation allows for maximum exhaust gas flow while completely eliminating in cabin sound resonance (drone). RSC™ incorporates innovative technologies developed in conjunction with NASA. With limited use of packing materials and no baffles, RSC™ allows for a completely straight and free flowing exhaust path through the RSC™ mufflers. Reflective Cancellation bounces the undesirable sound waves into each other to attenuate the wave and completely eliminate the low frequency tones that create drone. Each RSC™ muffler is tuned to eliminate specific, undesirable sound frequencies allowing only the engine’s desirable exhaust notes to be heard and improving performance.”

We’re offering FREE INSTALLATION to the first VW Mk5 GTI customer who wants the turbo-back system installed. We’ll be adding this new exhaust system to our online catalog shortly - in the meantime, please call us (425.895.0000) to place an order.

APR is title sponsor again to this year’s Waterfest 14 event. All APR products will automatically show their sale prices when you visit our online catalog. The sale begins Monday, July 7th and ends Thursday, July 31st.

Remember, sale prices are only active on our site during the designated APR Sale period.

We’ve been awaiting this kit and it finally dropped into our hands today! The APR 2.0T S3 engine conversion kit takes the Audi A3 and VW MkV 2.0T cars to 320HP and 320 Lb-Ft of torque on 91 octane pump gas! This number increases to 355hp and 368 Lb-Ft of torque on 100 octane gas!

Now before you think that “Yeah but the car is only two wheel drive.” APR’s engineers have expertly recalibrated the engine management system to allow for nearly flat torque delivery from 2500 rpm’s to 5000 rpm’s which results in a smooth linear pull throughout the power band.

The full kit includes the needed APR FSI fuel pump though it is available without the pump for those who may have already purchased it. This kit also includes the software so no additional software purchase is necessary to use this kit.

The APR S3 conversion kit normally retails for $4,999, we will have it on sale until May 9th for only $4,499! We’re also offering discounted installation for only $699! Financing is available for local customers :).

A few other components are highly recommended with this kit such as an exhaust, intake and intercooler but it’s certainly possible to build your car up in stages if you wish.

For a limited time RS4-K-04 Turbos are $2,399 shipped free, Turbos and Achtuning inlets are at $2,699 shipped free. We also have the most comprehensive hardware kit available for $75 additional.

APR is beginning to make preparations to move into their new facility, and they have announced a sale to help clear out inventory prior to their move…

Remember, sale prices are only active on our site during the designated APR Sale period.

We are doing a special offer of these kits for $100 off ($1995 retail -$100) for $1,895 and a $400 return credit for your stock calipers which would bring your final price down to $1,495!!!
We’ll toss in free shipping as well so you’ll have no shipping costs, no tax (unless you’re in WA state) and a $400 savings. There is a limited quantity of these kits available at this pricing.

The kits would all be red calipers and 328mm slotted rotors, no options are available on this deal.
