Do not confuse lowest drag coefficient with best aerodynamics. There is a reason Mercedes is striving for a low Cd (coefficient of drag) and that is because the A-Class sedan is positioned as an entry level economy car in the Mercedes lineup. ...Published on 07-24-2018 10:32 AM
Mercedes-AMG had another strong showing and a 1-2 finish but they received a rather large gift from Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel who locked up and hit a wall while leading the race. Rain came pouring in and some cars were caught with the wrong tires. ...Published on 07-20-2018 04:42 PM
The mid-size luxury performance sedan market has essentially come down to this, drag racing. You can blame the twin turbo V8 motors and their torque necessitating all wheel drive and perhaps Tesla as well who turned the measure of a sports sedan into a 0-60 sprint. ...Published on 07-19-2018 09:07 AM
This video conveniently comes on the heels of an aftermarket tuned BMW F90 M5 taking on a stock Mercedes-AMG E63 S. The F10 M5 Competition of course makes less power than the tuned F90 M5 but what is has going for it is rear wheel drive and a dual clutch transmission. ...Published on 07-18-2018 05:41 PM
Relax AMG fanboys, we know this is not a fair race. That is not the point. The point is to show the difference a tune makes on the BMW F90 M5. Well, the difference is huge. Keep in mind in stock form it is a driver's race between these two cars. ...Published on 07-18-2018 02:01 AM
It is nice to see something different from HRE. The company has some of the best looking wheels on the market but the designs have not seen any real styling evolution in some time. In come sthe RS3 series with interesting twisted-spoke styling. ...Published on 07-14-2018 12:17 AM
A very interesting matchup here. The Audi R8 V10 Plus is a first gen model but that Plus received a dual clutch transmission upgrade. It belongs to BoostAddict member @gzim335 and he got an ESS-Tuning Whipple twin screw based supercharger kit for it. ...Published on 07-13-2018 09:42 PM
There is summer heat and then there is desert summer heat. Suffice it to say, cooling needs change based on location and that is why this Middle Eastern customer had a custom direct port meth injection system built for his Weistec supercharged SLS AMG M159 by Prometh. ...Published on 07-12-2018 09:43 PM
During a Race1000 event in Europe a TTE900 upgraded W212 Mercedes-AMG E63 wagon was spotted. The TTE900 M157 turbo upgrade we are not too familiar with in the USA but of course TTE (The Turbo Engineers) are well known for providing turbo upgrades for a variety of platforms. ...Published on 07-11-2018 10:11 PM
This BMW F80 M3 belongs to @Peter @ Pure/PTF and you have seen it in action previously kicking some serious ass. Well, he took it out to an event in Germany and ran this 700 horsepower Mercedes-AMG W205 C63 S. ...Published on 07-11-2018 08:45 PM
The Mercedes-Benz SLC is not a big seller and BenzBoost can tell you why. It has no balls. It is a chick car. That is fine and dandy but if you want to garner sales from men the car has to perform and not look like a toy for a hairdresser. ...Published on 07-11-2018 08:23 PM
Many of us have loud exhausts on our cars. Imagine you are out enjoying your car and someone comes up and kicks it because the exhaust is too loud. How would you react? Well, the Asian actor who owns this particular R8 decided to kick some ass. ...Published on 07-10-2018 09:44 PM
Pure Turbos has two sets of turbo upgrades for the Mercedes-AMG M177 and M178 motors. The M178 variant of the 4.0 liter twin turbo V8 motor keep in mind is utilized in the C190 AMG GT models and is mated to a dual clutch transmission. ...Published on 07-10-2018 07:13 PM
Is it fair that the Porsche is tuned and the C63 is not? No. But you run what you have and it is interesting to see the difference between a tuned Porsche 911 Carrera S and a stock C63 S. Even if both cars were stock the Porsche would have the advantage. ...Published on 07-09-2018 07:14 PM
Incredible numbers here from a GLA45 AMG tuned with a Pure Turbos Stage 1 M133 turbocharger upgrade. The tuner is Rev Engineering who has a Dynapack hub dyno. That means the power units directly connect to the wheel hubs. ...
