V10 TDI 5.0 liter 313hp tuning

I know the largest TDI engine -V10 TDI 5.0 liter 313HP 750nm torque- from the VW/Audi group didn't make it as an exclusivity to Audi's range as in the past -as they have to "satisfy" themselves with developing their own V8 TDI 4.0 liter 275hp- but I was wondering if anyone heard about tuning/mods for that beast.

PS : the V10 TDI is available on the Touareg SUV and comes standard with the CDC pneumatic suspension. "A la RS6 DRC" ?

I ordered th Touareg V10 and it should be arriving in July. MTM has the stage 1 kit with 352hp/855nm while B&B has stage 1 with 360hp/850nm and is developing stage 2 with 390hp/900nm. There are also exhausts, body kits, 22" wheels and other goodies [img]images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Can't wait to drive it and then add a "few" ponies to the monster.
Cheers,
Cris

Thanks Cris! Saw the B&B mods, looks gigantic.
And 390hp/900nm in a SUV...That beats the X5 4.6is and other AMG ML 55 [img]images/graemlins/rocker.gif[/img]

Btw, to get yours in July, when did you have to place your order ?
And could you get a good discount ?

Cheers,

Eric

Already with the original 313hp it is up there with X5 and ML, just imagine after some tuning [img]images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img] I ordered the car in December for Euro 77000 (+ they are taking my Grand Cherokee as a trade in) and considering it has basically all the optionals it is a great price. I have waited so long because several options have been actually fitted to the cars only recently (ie. sunroof, nappa leather, 19" wheels, tv...). Hope it arrives soon. Will let you know.
Cheers,Cris
