Tuned Audi RS6 V10 acheives 831HP

29th January 2011 Print

Another world first has been achieved by Turbo Dynamics, based in Christchurch, Dorset, and MRC Tuning of Banbury, this time with the Audi RS6 V10 - with the winning combination of Turbo Dynamics Hybrid turbochargers and MRC remapped engine and gearbox. Not only is this the first upgrade on the Audi RS6 V10, but it is the first upgrade on its’ turbochargers too.

As standard this monster delivers 580BHP. But with the modifications to the vehicle and turbocharger it achieves 831BHP and 977NM with a 0-60 time of 3.6s, electronically limited to 217.5 mph!

Audi broke from their traditional use of KKK turbochargers and employed a pair of IHI turbos. Matt Waterman, head of R&D at TD admitted, “This caused us some head scratching at first, but we persevered and are really pleased with the end result. The estimated BHP was 800, so the result was pleasing. We have been reliably informed by MRC Tuning that on the road it will achieve more”.

Not only is this the first time for the Audi RS6 to get such an upgrade, but it is the first time Turbo Dynamics’ new MFS Billet Compressor Wheels had been fitted into one of their Hybrids.

The upgrade by MRC Tuning consisted of 3” downpipes with 100cell racecats, intakes, filter kit, fuelling kit and a MRC Tuning Stage 3 Remap.
