Audi R8 V10 Spyder by B&B

B&B Automobiltechnik has launched a new upgrade program for the Audi R8 V10 Spyder. While last time they focused on the coupe, the latest aftermarket package takes care of the Spyder version. They installed a carbon air filter, custom racing exhaust system and remapped the electronic injection code fields to increase output to 628 HP (462 kW) and 600 Nm (442 lb-ft) compared to the standard 525 HP (386 kW) and 530 Nm (391 lb·ft) of torque.

B&B is also offering a sport suspension kit lowering the R8 by 20mm/25mm (front/rear) while for more money clients can opt for an adjustable version. They can also tweak the R-Tronic gear shift which will lower shift times significantly, making the gearbox even faster than that found in the R8 GT. Thanks to all modifications, the R8 V10 Spyder by B&B can hit 62 mph (100 km/h) in 3.5 seconds, making it 0.5 seconds quicker than stock version. The top speed has been increased from 316 km/h (196 mph) to 328 km/h (204 mph). Completing this tuning package are ceramic brakes and new sets of 19- and 20-inch alloys.

Audi R8 V10 tuned by Racing One

German motor sports service provider and event organizer, Racing One, has given this green Audi R8 V10 a little tuning job. Intended to be used as a promotional vehicle, power output was raised from 525 PS (386 kW / 518 bhp) to 610 PS (449 kW / 602 bhp) via an Akrapovic titanium exhaust system and remapped ECU. Racing One also upgraded the running gear with Bilstein 2-way MDS dampers, Performance Friction Brakes and semi-slick race tires while inside, race bucket seats, 6-point seat belts, interior chassis support braces and fire extinguisher were added. Since the R8 V10 will also be used for driver training events and track days, Racing One has fitted a data logging system accessible via CAN bus for later analysis. Two video cameras also capture all of the driving action. Racing One has spent 26,000 euros to perform all of these modifications.

Audi R8 V10 by XXX Performance

XXX-Performance has presented their own take on the Audi R8 V10 quattro. There is little doubt that this model will surely get you noticed on the road, but it may have gone a little too far with the exterior paint that is accurately identified as bilious green. The model has also been fitted with a set of 20-inch alloy wheels that are styled to match the body's color and are wrapped with Dunlop SP Sport Maxx tires. The 5.2-liter V10 unit that resides in the engine bay has been boosted to 650PS (478kW/641hp) with an upgraded air flow system that includes a BMC carbon air-box as well as a high-end sports exhaust system. The tuner car also features an H&R coilover kit and G-Ride Airride system that lowers the models ride height. The interior has been treated to Alcantara and real leather upholstery as well as a set of Audi RS sports seats. Fortunately the XXX-Performance stylists have shied away from extending the extravagant exterior color to the cabin.

The MANSORY refining programme for the Audi R8 Spyder
Refining sports cars is more than just a business for MANSORY. Love for detail, the particular and the unique is an incentive for exceptional reconstructions. The company's latest stroke of genius impressively proves that once again. The MANSORY interpretation of the Audi R8 Spyder with its exclusive and extensive refining programme does not let just the hearts of convertible fans beat faster.
In particular, the car body kit clearly demonstrates that the desire for visual refinement is the focus at MANSORY. Apart from a multitude of new design elements made of carbon such as the new front grill and the lamella bonnets, specific interventions on front, side and rear ensure extra aerodynamics. The front spoiler attachment therefore reduces the buoyancy of the Spyder, which decisively improves handling and agility. Furthermore, the side skirts calm the air flow between both axes. A rear spoiler also provides more contact pressure. The MANSORY technicians could restrict themselves to a small wing profile from which the car body design has significantly benefited. Since the combination with a new rear apron and the perfectly integrated rear diffuser made a sufficient grip available. The MANSORY aerodynamics kit displays its strengths on main roads with curvy sections and generates pure driving pleasure.
Extra agility and handling create room for more power. For the V10 5.2 FSI-engine MANSORY brings its Know-How into play. By installing a sport air filter and a sport exhaust system, an improvement of performance results in 552 HP / 406 kW with 800 rpm and an increased torque of 550 Nm with 6500 rpm
An additional technical highlight in the refining programme offered is the distinctive MANSORY alloy wheel. It is particularly light due to the production in forging technology. The unsprung masses are thereby reduced, which improves noticeably both handling and acceleration as well as braking response. The recommended wheel/tyre combination has the size 8.5Jx20 inches with tyre dimensions 245/30ZR20 at the front. At the rear, 11.0Jx20 sized rims with tyre size 305/25ZR20 are used. The wheel/tyre combination is properly set into the scene by suspension springs for the lower suspension setting of the sports car.
MANSORY customers also get offered something in the interior as well. As a complement to the existing interior design offered by our manufacturer, MANSORY offers a extensive programme. That ranges from personalised doormats to perfectly worked leather upholstery with MANSORY couture and carbon applications. Illuminated door entry strips and pedals and footrests made of aluminium are also in the extensive list of possible interior refinement.
MANSORY Design & Holding GmbH offers only its in-house developed tuning accessories. The company does not offer its own make as "complete" vehicle, neither does the company deal with such type of vehicles.

Audi R8 Hyper Black Edition by Anderson Germany

Anderson Germany has unveiled the new Audi R8 Hyper Black Edition.

Described as a road-going UFO, the HBE features a carbon fiber body kit with a front lip spoiler, an aggressive rear diffuser, and a massive rear wing. Elsewhere, there's tinted windows, smoked tail lights, orange brake calipers, and 19-inch alloy wheels with carbon fiber accents. Last but not least, the car is painted an exclusive color which has unsurprisingly been called Hyper Black.

Inside, the carbon fiber theme continues as the lightweight material is applied to virtually everything including the handbrake, door panels, center console, and steering wheel. Additionally, there are leather seats, Alcantara accents, and numerous orange highlights.

To give the car a little extra oomph, the tuner installed a high-flow air filter, a revised ECU, and a sport exhaust system with remote-controlled sound control valves. Thanks to these modifications, the 5.2-liter V10 engine produces 589 PS (433 kW / 581 hp) - an increase of 64 PS (47 kW / 63 hp).
