Audi R8 Convertible

|

Updated on

The fiery red Audi R8 is a stunning car, but having it in a convertible model is even better, and it features many improvements. For more than 50,000 Euros, this conversion improves the weight of the car, boosts output, optimizes the handling and safety systems, while giving it a look to die for. On the exterior level, the tuners installed a new front bumper and grill, front spoiler, carbon made ribs, cooling ducts, rear spoiler, apron, and rear diffuser with grille option on the Audi R8. Performance upgrades and numbers come next.

Sport Wheels hooked it up with a modified exhaust system and throttle enhancement, then brought these aftermarket customizations together with a level-2 ECU tuning upgrade for the 5.2-liter FSI V10 engine. On the dyno it produced an amazing 600 horsepower and 580 Nm of the peak torque. A brake improvement includes MOV-IT-CER ceramic brake calipers, along with an aluminum coilover suspension system called the KW Variant 3 HLS 4. Rounding out the Audi R8 kit is a new set of sleek 20-inch Eta Beta Jofiel X rims wrapped in Sport Maxx GT tires from Dunlop.
