This is just ridiculous. Great to see more Dynojet results for the new S58 motor. The baseline is at the rear wheels (expect lower AWHP figures) on 91 octane pump fuel. Peak figures of 488 wheel horsepower and 445 lb-ft of wheel torque are not too shabby and the S58 is clearly underrated. ...Published on 01-27-2020 07:18 PM
Independent 1/4 mile times are the way to go in order to get an accurate performance assessment. In this case a completely stock new BMW F92 M8 Competition is running the new Ford Shelby GT500 which has its passenger seat removed and a resonator delete. ...Published on 01-27-2020 06:53 PM
The top mount twin turbo Audi 4.0 EA824 V8 features a twin scroll turbo manifold design. If you do not know what a twin scroll turbocharger design does or how it works click here but the idea is for the turbocharger to get extra exhaust pulses in one housing. ...Published on 01-27-2020 05:41 PM
Porsche is being praised for their Super Bowl commercial which somewhat comically was released well before the Super Bowl. These days you can get tons of views for your Super Bowl ad without people even needing to wait to see it during the game. ...Published on 01-27-2020 05:01 PM
PureBoost is a German tuner many of you are aware of. They work with MHD and suffice it to say their BMW F90 M5 S63TU2 tuning results using the MHD system are impressive. On E30 ethanol they managed to top 800 PS or metric horsepower. ...Published on 01-27-2020 03:27 PM
We're excited to announce our Engine Control Unit (ECU) Upgrades are now available for the Audi RS5 (B9) 2.9 TFSI engine with the Bosch MG1 ECU! Expect massive gains with 488-550 HP and 537-606 FT-LBS of torque on tap, depending on octane, from this simple software upgrade. ...Published on 01-25-2020 01:23 PM
Here we are again with Carwow doing puzzling races but due to the hardware involved it is difficult to avoid discussion on it. One thing to keep in mind is the 992 Carrera 4S is featured this time meaning Carwow intentionally used a 992 Carrera S RWD to sensationalize their Tesla Model 3 Performance race. ...Published on 01-24-2020 09:33 PM
One of the most frustrating parts of motorsports is being able to watch the race in question in the comfort of your own home. 24 Hour events in particular prove difficult to view due to the length. Well, the Daytona 24 Hours kicks off the IMSA calendar and you can say it is the definitive 24 Hour motorsport event in North America. ...Published on 01-24-2020 05:59 PM
Race 3 Motorsport is based out of Canada and AudiBoost is not too familiar with them but ran across their work. They do some very cool fabrication and their Audi 2.5 TFSI kit (will fit all MKIII TT-RS models) offers several Garrett turbocharger options. ...Published on 01-24-2020 05:36 PM
As the 9A2B6 3.0 platform sees more tuning especially as cars comes off leases and their warranty period having a frame of reference is essential. So what does a 2017 Porsche 911 Carrera rear wheel drive PDK run independently in stock form on the dragstrip? ...Published on 01-24-2020 02:41 PM
We have another contender in the BMW HPFP (High Pressure Fuel Pump) game. In all honesty BimmerBoost is not familiar with Dorch Engineering but a few tuners behind the scenes have mentioned great success in running their pumps namely in B58 applications. ...Published on 01-24-2020 02:05 PM
The numbers you see here are very close to what HGP posted the other day for the C8 Audi RS6 EA825 4.0 V8 twin turbo platform. It seems the German tuners are thus far putting out Stage 1 ECU tunes that mirror each other. ...Published on 01-23-2020 04:58 PM
It is no accident to see a Porsche 991.2 GT2 RS next to a Chevrolet C8 Corvette test mule. Is this an indicator the C8 Z06 is boosted? Possibly. The two cars were spotted in California testing in the basin as well as the California mountain ranges. ...Published on 01-23-2020 03:52 PM
AC Schnitzer is German for overpriced BMW parts or something along those lines. Still, AC Schnitzer body pieces are usually pretty nice and their wheels are well known. The BMW tuning house certainly is well established. ...Published on 01-23-2020 03:21 PM
Thank you to BenzBoost member @Gad6363 for this. He has the quickest and fastest recorded W213 Mercedes-AMG E63 S M177 to date on GPS. Whatever GAD Motors is doing they seem to have the platform figured out. ...
Easy 9's? JB4 tuned BMW F92 M8 S63TU2 V8...
Does the F92 M8 have a slight advantage...
