APR Presents: Audi B8 A4/A5 & Q5 S3 K04 Turbocharger System!

Written by Dion on August 13, 2010 – 3:06 pm -

APR’s S3 K04 Turbo Conversion is now available for the Audi B8 A4/A5 & Q5 2.0 TFSI Valvelift engine. APR has developed an excellent entry level turbocharger upgrade for the 2.0 TFSI VL engine by incorporating the OEM turbocharger assembly from the Audi S3 and coupling it with APR’s expertly recalibrated engine management upgrade. APR’s Engineering Team has developed a powerful and reliable turbocharger upgrade that maintains OEM engine bay appearance and offers up to 116 hp and 113 lb ft of torque over the OEM power output of the 2.0 TFSI.

Reliability, drivability, stealth and enhanced performance that cannot be bested are the highlights of APR’s newest OEM-component based conversion package.

APR’s engineers have expertly recalibrated the engine management system to allow for nearly flat torque delivery from 2800 RPM to 5000 RPM which results in a smooth linear pull …

ACHTUN!NG’s new VW “Comfort Coupe”

Written by Dion on August 10, 2010 – 2:58 pm -

We mentioned earlier that we have a new VW in our line-up! The wife and I rolled up to Pignataro VW last Saturday and decided to get ourselves in a bit of trouble, and with the help of Jonathan Gross he made sure it was going to be the painless type of trouble… The VW CC offers quite a bit of car for the money with tuning capabilities parallel to the GTI so it was very easy for us to make our decision – as long as they had it in white, which they did!

Monday morning, two days after purchase:

Completed:
* de-badged
* mud flaps removed
* DRL delete
* remote windows
* …

New offset for Hartmann’s 19-inch HR8 wheel!

Written by Dion on August 9, 2010 – 12:03 pm -

Hartmann’s light-weight, 19″ HR8-MS (machined/silver) wheel is now available in an offset specific to the Audi RS4, (C5) RS6, Allroad, and A5/S5s! No spacing necessary, just bolt on and go! Fresh off the container, Dave was the first to stop by and claim a set for his B7 Audi RS4 lowered on Stasis Motorsport Coil-Overs.

The HR8s offer gobs of brake caliper clearance!

Not a bad look at all for the RS4 – in fact these wheels do a much better job of showing off those enormous brake discs and calipers! In stock, ready to ship!!  Click here

The wheels just keep coming!

Written by Dion on August 5, 2010 – 2:47 pm -

I had a chance to snap pictures of the next batch of MB and AMG wheels we have coming in.  For those of you just tuning in, we’re bringing in a HUGE order (6 wheel containers) of OEM Mercedes Benz and AMG wheels as we picked them up at an incredible savings – a savings which we intend to pass on to you!  MB wheels share the same bolt pattern as the majority of our current Audi and VW models so this presents an opportunity for you to pick up either a new set of wheels or an extra set to toss on for track days or throw on winter rubber.

Christmas in July!

Written by Dion on July 29, 2010 – 8:26 am -

As one of our facebook fans put it, it’s like Christmas in July!  With all these OEM Mercedes Benz and AMG wheels coming in, we’re like little kids in a candy store!  A few more wheels made it out of their boxes yesterday afternoon for quick inspection…

And then a pleasant surprise followed while unloading our Hartmann Wheel container. The factory ended up sending us a new finish for our 20″ Hartmann HRS4-252 Wheel line-up – machined/anthracite!

As promised, we will begin going through our Hartmann Wheel back-orders as quickly as possible.  Only half of what we are expecting is here with plenty more on the way so thanks in advance for your patience while we sort through our inventory and orders!  As for the OEM MB and AMG wheels, we will …

Containers are still coming in!

Written by Dion on July 28, 2010 – 2:51 pm -

With the arrival of two more wheel containers this morning we are plugging away and getting to back-orders as quickly as possible. Most of our shipping will resume by Friday and most of you waiting for Hartmann Wheels should be seeing orders begin to ship soon. But first, we have to put all these away…

OEM Mercedes and AMG wheels anyone?

Written by Dion on July 27, 2010 – 10:59 am -

Somehow we went from getting 5 incoming containers to NINE!! We’re seriously scrambling… The first of six containers containing OEM Mercedes/AMG wheels have arrived and we’re just now starting to sort through the product. There is a LOT to go through so bare with us while we take a count and figure out what sizes and styles we have to work with…

There are some real nice wheels in these boxes, and we’re gonna be able to turn them around and sell them to you for CHEAP! That’s OEM MB and AMG product at a fraction of what they’re worth!! See for yourself…

Once we get each style counted and sizes/offsets sorted we will update everyone with …
