JB Design has manufactured a stage one kit for the Lambo that produces a maximum output of 710 hp, with a top speed of 370 km/h from the powerful V12. The exterior features an aerodynamic package that includes new front and rear spoilers, rear diffuser, side coverings, side skirts, air intakes in the front, and a front opening hood to allow cooler air into the engine bay.

The factory Porsche Cayenne twin turbo V8 produces 500 hp, and that is nothing compared to the ENCO Gladiator 700 GT Biturbo. Featuring a full roll cage inside, carbon fiber racing seats, and so much body work to make Jenna Jameson seem natural, the Porsche Cayenne was also boosted to 690 horsepower. This car is definitely not a sleeper, with its red rims, an additional 190 horses, and revised front end that looks mean as hell. The Gladiator Porsche Cayenne has been lavished with carbon fiber throughout, and the fancy 23″ wheels fit nicely with the large fender flares. Now the need for a full roll cage on a Porsche Cayenne, I think they went a little overboard with this one.

With it’s five cylinders and four wheel drive, the Audi TT-RS is a unique car, and the tuning firm at AVUS Performance has taken it to the next level. Delivering plenty of horsepower, the stock Audi TT-RS produces 340 hp and 332 ft lbs of torque. This allows for a 0-60 mph time of 4.6 seconds, which in AVUS Performance’s eyes, is not nearly enough. They were able to bring the Audi beyond expectations by boosting the engine to a stunning 460 bhp with more than 472 ft lbs of torque. That improved the 0-60 time to a mere 3.8 seconds, with a top speed of 194 mph. Along with the power upgrades, AVUS also improved the looks and aerodynamics of the Audi TT-RS.

Japanese car tuning specialists Tommy Kaira have created a modified version of the third-generation Toyota Prius, which is one of the top selling hybrids. All of the customizations are cosmetic because the tuning company didn’t want to hinder fuel economy, since that is the reason people buy the Prius in the first place. The front end received a completely redesigned look with the addition of a front lip spoiler and air intake vents. Lowering the ride height of the Toyota Prius is an aftermarket suspension kit to add to the new sporty look. It also received new larger wheels and tires because the wheels on most hybrid models are pathetic.
