You will likely remember this McLaren 720S. It is indeed the world's fastest McLaren 720S and it is tuned by Dyno Spectrum. A couple months back it was the first McLaren 720S to top 160 miles per hour of trap speed in the 1/4 mile. ...Published on 08-30-2019 07:42 PM
Another solid result for TTH's M157 hybrid turbochargers. TTH of course standard for Turbo Technik Hamburg and they have posted some good AMG tuning numbers. This C218 generation CLS63 is making around 850 horsepower. ...Published on 08-29-2019 12:24 AM
Race Chip is based overseas and this is beneficial to them in one major respect. That is not having BMS (Burger Tuning) on their home turf. When it comes to piggyback tuning, the JB4 from BMS rules the market and for good reason. ...Published on 08-28-2019 10:57 PM
The GLB 35 AMG was expected of course after the launch GLB 250 4Matic. The GLB 35 shares the all wheel drive and 8-speed dual clutch drivetrain. The main difference of course is the jump in output to 302 horsepower from 221 horsepower. ...Published on 08-28-2019 01:25 AM
A nice highway pull here with a Mercedes-AMG GT S that has its M178 turbochargers upgraded to Pure900 units from Pure Turbos going up against a Nissan GT-R with unspecified turbochargers said to be making ~800 all wheel horsepower. ...Published on 08-23-2019 09:04 AM
Well, this this is the official beginning of the German brands effort to take the driver out of the equation. It is just a matter of time before your car drives you around and that is exactly what Audi, BMW, and Daimler are partnering together to accomplish. ...Published on 08-22-2019 01:14 AM
You likely have noticed many articles about TTE (The Turbo Engineers) lately as they seem to have a hybrid turbocharger upgrade for basically any platform. They are usually the first to market as well as evidenced by their recent Lamborghini Urus upgrade. ...Published on 08-21-2019 10:31 PM
A couple naturally aspirated V8's going at it here which is not as common these days. The W204 C63 generation is obviously outdated at this point but the AMG hand built 6.2 liter M156 V8 is still a powerhouse even without boost. The Ford Mustang GT's updated Coyote motor is no slouch either. ...Published on 08-19-2019 11:08 PM
Here is a perfect illustration as to why the MKIV Supra has its reputation as a highway monster. The wheel horsepower on this Supra is not stated but it is clearly making plenty of power as illustrated by the 100-300 kph (62-186 mph) run. ...Published on 08-13-2019 06:51 PM
While we are used to seeing some big boost cars go at it here are some mortal matchups that likely will appeal to a wider audience. The Mustang GT Coyote V8 is a popular platform as it is affordable and can make a ton of power. ...Published on 08-12-2019 10:23 PM
A stock Ferrari 488 GTB in action here against some impressive cars. This took place at Moscow Unlimited 500+ 2019 so you know the drill. The cars line up for a standing 1/2 mile drag race and are timed in the 60 foot, 1/4 mile, and 1/2 mile. ...Published on 08-12-2019 06:21 PM
Make any car electric? That is what Polykup is promising. It sure sounds interesting and there is proof of the concept working. The owner swapped a Tesla electric motor into his Audi S5 Quattro and, yes, managed to keep the all wheel drive drivetrain. ...Published on 08-03-2019 02:33 PM
RK Autowerks developed air intakes for the AMG M157 5.5 liter twin turbo V8 under the hood of the C218 CLS63 AMG. Presumably, these can be adapted to the W212 E63 AMG which share the same M157 5.5 liter V8 as well. ...Published on 08-01-2019 06:42 PM
This is just stunning when you consider that the C205/W205 C63 AMG Coupe is still on its factory M177 engine internals and that the car is on the stock transmission. Remember, earlier this year the car set the quickest M177 record with a 10.1 @ 137.9 pass. ...Published on 08-01-2019 01:41 PM
Some great M177 hybrid turbocharger results here from MTR Performance. As the M177's are not paired to a dual clutch transmission like the M178 motors you usually see tuners ramp in torque a bit harder down low on the automatic transmission but sometimes at the expense of top end punch. ...
