Hi

Why should my R8 V8 bad to driving ?
The R8 V10 would then also bad to driving with 612PS!

The V10 engine can reach 650hp with my actions,
you just have to know what you must do!

How do you know the R8 GT is capable of 650ps?. I very much doubt you have driven one let alone tuned one to that spec.

Sadly, I'm not brave enough to rip/ butcher my car apart to gain the extra horses.
Too much power is barely enough.

Hi

the GT engine is just built like a series V10 in the R8.

I know what you must do to the V10 cylinder heads
in order to improve the filling.

This is not rocket science but professional expertise what to do it
must implement on the matter.

hi

Now, after a little stop at the R8, it proceeds to the weight reduction.

Instead of 12,5kg Odyssay PC1100 battery now has the Voltphreaks VPR-S40
its place in the R8 found.

Next comes a carbon seat Mulsanne B of Reverie. Ltd UK to use.

Cool, when do you start on the "strong" mods? Will that involve any 'roids?
