B&B started to modify Volkswagen and Audi cars about 25 years ago and their skills and modified cars got better and better in time. Their latest tuning project is based on the new Volkswagen Scirocco, one of the most popular European cars at the moment. B&B made a special engine kit which will increase this car’s performances in 6 stages: the first stage begins with a couple of modifications at the engine electronics which boost the power to 235 HP and 340 Nm for just 998 Euro. Next stages will take the engine to 250, 265, 286, 300 and in the final EVO R stage this Scirocco will have 350 HP and 450 Nm under the hood. This is achieved by changing the car’s original engine with a special engine equipped with a bigger turbo loader, optimized crank shaft and forged pistons with modified cylinder heads.

The Audi R8 looks special and probably everyone would love to own a car like this one. It might be a mid engine sports car but it has a breathtaking design with sporty handling dynamics and a rocket like speed which will impress any speed addict. The stock version of this car is equipped with a 4.2L V8 engine and if that’s not enough Wheelsandmore decided to release a special performance kit for this exotic car. The German tuner created a special engine kit which will modify the car’s engine cooling unit and will give an extra 30 HP that will take this car’s engine to 450 HP. The special ECU kit will cost just €1,700 and if you’re willing to spend more to make this super car even faster the company will add a kompressor which will boost the car’s power to 530 HP. But power ain’t cheap and the high performance kit will cost about €32,500.
