APR’s RSC™ Technology is now available for the MK6 Golf R in their newest 2.0T RSC™ 3″ Performance Exhaust System. RSC™ or Reflective Sound Cancellation allows for maximum exhaust gas flow while completely eliminating unwanted in cabin sound resonance known as “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 throughout 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 true and desirable exhaust not to be heard and improving performance….

You’re looking at the first installed set of the BRAND NEW Hartmann HRS6-204 wheel in the matte-anthracite finish! Karl picked up his brand new A4 from University Audi this morning and drove it straight to Achtuning for a wheel upgrade and an APR ECU tune!

The wheels are 20×9 with a 40mm offset wrapped with 255/30-20s and the car currently sits at stock ride height. We’ve got plenty of these wheels in stock and will be adding them to the site shortly. Meanwhile, give us a call at 425-895-0000 to place your order!

Our VWR Intake has arrived from APR…

We’ve just added the intake to our online catalog and will be installing this one on the Achtuning Golf R immediately. Should have a decent impression of what we “feel” this will do for the R at the track this weekend.  Click the image to view product details about the VWR intake.

Last Friday we received two Hartmann Wheel containers, the first of several still long over-due to replenish our inventory. Many of you who are on a back-order list will be called soon (if you haven’t already) to confirm your wheel order. We thank you all for your continued patience. Please do not hesitate to contact us directly to check on your back-orders or visit our Hartmann Wheel website to check stock levels of the wheel you ordered.

We’ve added a few NEW wheels to the Hartmann Wheel line-up, and we are excited to share them with you! Up first is the Hartmann HRS6-204 wheel in a matte-anthracite finish:

Hartmann HRS6-204-MA
* 20×9 +40: $345 ea.

The matte-anthracite finish is first available in a 5×112, 20×9 with a 40mm offset – a perfect fit for several of the recent models in …

Aren’t these supposed to be a limited production model? If so, then all the VW Golf Rs must be here in Washington State. If you’ve been following our facebook updates, you’ll know what I mean. Russell is up next for an APR ECU upgrade…

Martin dropped off his GTI last night so we could get an early start first thing this morning on his APR K04 kit install. He had been saving up for the kit and Uncle Sam’s annual gift helped him take the plunge. Perfect timing too, as Martin is able to take advantage of APR’s “Spring Into Power” Sale. A Carbonio Stage 1 and Stage 2 intake had previously been installed in an earlier appointment to get the car ready for the big performance jump.

Accompanying the turbo kit is APR’s RSC turbo-back exhaust…

And while we’ve got the car up in the air we’ll be sure to install …

Any of our VW Golf R owners interested in a BBK? We have an opportunity to present someone who lives in the SoCal area an incredible price on a StopTech BBK, 355mm and ST40 (4-piston) specifically. More details are available when we hear directly from one of you but let’s get a few pre-qualifiers out there first:

1) Must live in SoCal, preferably as close to StopTech as possible
2) Must be flexible enough to be able to leave your car with them for a day to allow them to take initial measurements.
3) Must be available for a possible second visit for part fitting and testing
4) Your Golf R must be equipped with stock suspension and wheels that clear a BBK. (we will provide the template so you can check for clearance)

If you are interested and meet these “pre-qualifiers” please get a hold of us as soon as possible …

The ACHTUN!NG Golf R will be tackling The Ridge Motorsport Park this weekend and these Schroth Racing harnesses we just installed should help quite a bit!  A big “thank you!” to Terry at Griffin Motorwerke for the help!!

Aside from the (now) thousands of track miles we’ve racked up on the Golf R (more track miles than street!), not much else to report other than the fact this car is an absolute BLAST and is quite the track monster, and a sleeper at that!  APR has recently announced their exhaust system is almost ready to ship and we’re waiting for a Volkswagen Racing cold air intake to arrive and bump up power even more!

A new car with a small budget to begin modding right away is the ultimate way to get started in this game, and Lindsay wasted no time bringing us her stock E92 BMW 335 in for a suspension upgrade. Selecting H&R coil-overs as a great bang-for-buck option to improve cornering capabilities and bring the car closer to the ground, we threw a set on the day after she took delivery. Ridin’ low (and clean =P) is nothing new to Lindsay so of course we knew to make sure there was no gap between tire and fender.

Hope you’re enjoying the new ride, Linds!  Looking forward to seeing what’s next.

It’s that time of the year again!!
