Big Improvements on a Brand New Audi S5
Written by Dion on October 20, 2010 – 11:48 am -
The car is still so new it’s got the temp tags in place, but that’s not really anything new here at Achtuning. Alex brought us his S5 as he’s got a specific direction in mind for his brand new Audi.
STaSIS/Ohlins SL Coil-Overs, StopTech Street Performance Brake Pads, StopTech Stainless-Steel Braided Brake Lines, and H&R DRA Spacers are just the tip of the iceberg as plenty more goodies are already planned for the very near future. This first step is just enough to get the car looking and rolling proper!

It’s all about stance with this winterized Audi S5
Written by Dion on January 15, 2009 – 11:54 am -When Ian stopped by last October with his Audi S5, it allowed us to get our first up-close-and-personal look at Audi’s latest V8 coupe.
Ian had us set aside a set of our RS4-styled Hartmann 252s in 18×8 and a 32mm offset so we could eventually wrap some Dunlop M3s around his new winter wheels. Concerned with stance, Ian had H&R DR spacers and a STaSIS Ohlins SL Sport Suspension Kit ordered so we could tackle all tasks at once. Unfortunately, his euro-spec headlight delivery was delayed until just recently and we are now finally getting around to throwing on Ian’s parts for him. After all things were said and done…
The stance couldn’t look any better for a winter set-up. Can’t wait for this thing to come back for the S5-styled 20″ Hartmann 209 Wheels when the weather shapes up!
Hartmann 252B Wheels: $260 ea.

A look at Audi’s B8 S5
Written by Dion on October 24, 2008 – 2:47 pm -Got a chance to get an up-close and personal look at the B8 Audi S5 today…
What a gorgeous car!! Ian brought us his Audi S5 as he is looking to pick up a set of 18″ B7 HRS4 – 252 wheels for the up-coming winter season. We sat down with him and worked out some good numbers and will wait for his winter tires to arrive from Tire Rack before we can update you with his winter-wheel look. We are also working out a deal on some STaSIS Ohlins coil-overs and our Hartmann HS5 – 209 wheels by the time Spring arrives. In the meantime, my up-close-and-personal pictures of the S5 as I got to know it a bit more…
Fantastic interior with the red leather, brushed aluminum, and carbon fiber accent pieces!!
Brushed aluminum accents are also carried on outside the car, with front and rear valence splitters and brushed mirror covers.
Ian also has European headlight and tail light assemblies on order that we will help him install, the rears I assume will be upgraded to an LED version.
We’re still waiting for the release of engine upgrades for the S5 other than an exhaust by
Fuchs is BACK!
