2011 Audi R8 5.2 Extreme Challenge fromStasis Engineering

Improving perfection is such a difficult task then when Stasis Engineering offers a test drive of the adapted Audi R8 Spyder, one gets filled with excitement and edge. The final disembarking on a reserveR8 5.2 FSI, resulted in the conclusion that Audi had is largely enhancedto vast excellence.

A ride was taken in Stasis’ flawless show car accompanying Henry Hsu, the director of engineering of the company. As soon as the traffic became clear, Hsu swiftly double-hits the R Tronic left batwaiting the bright “2″ that appeared on the dash. Revolutions blow up as the two oval pipes’ howlbecomes a looming roar. Eaton’s largest automotive supercharger makes a high-pitch sound and is agitated at the maximum of 7.5 PSI. Allthings become blurry and the eyes start watering. WHOA!

With 710 supercharged HP on strike, the 5.2 FSI Spyderthe most powerful legal all over the 50-states creation from Stasis, surpassing the 2 factory dealer-set upgrades of the brand. (The other is a more moderate 552-HP Touring Edition.) Assembling the suitably named Challenge Extreme Edition symbol gives a TVS 2300 blower accompanied with an adapted cooling structure, ECU tuning, with a less restraining, hand-merged three-inch T-305 stainless steel exhaust. The tester also boasts Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 tires, counterfeit aluminum wheels, improved suspension, and Alcon brakes made ofwoven stainless steel and sticky pads.

At a creep, the burst 5.2-liter V-10 gathers a pack of repressedplunge – 523 lbs-ft of torque hold the struck equines, a lot of them presentedless than 5500 rotations per minute. The TIG-conjoint exhaust rumbles and bursts;however, it isnot an ear-piercing whine. If ever a Dodge Viper SRT-10 was mechanically combined with a Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 Super Veloce, the result would have the same sound. With 185 HP and 132 lbs-ft over Neckarsulm’sbottom, this Spydercarries a very toxiccrunch.
