Senner Audi A5 Cabrio

Inside and outside, the Audi A5 is a good looking car. And while the Cabriolet may be even better looking than the hardtop model, tuning companies always believe they can do better. Senner Tuning has put together a package for the A5, and they’ve taken this German saloon to the extreme: new front bumpers, rear bumpers, 4 tailpipe exhaust, wheels, and adjustable suspension make the car even more eyecatching than it already was.

The tuners from have unveiled over the weekend their Audi A5 Cabrio upgrade program, which offers increased performance and a number of body work updates. The Senner Audi A5 Cabrio for the 2.0 TFSI model offers a power increase to 275 HP and 430 Nm of torque. The extra umpf of the Senner Audi A5 Cabrio 2.0 TFSI comes from updated engine electronics and new sport air filters. The Senner Audi A5 Cabrio also features a Power Convertor system that manages to offer even faster reaction times of the accelerator pedal. Although the tuner doesn't mention, we bet the new stainless steel exhaust system with four 88x74mm diameter tailpipes also gives a few extra horses to the Senner Audi A5 Cabrio.

The tuner from Ingelheim offers an audibly superior exhaust system for the A5, guaranteed to give you goosebumps. It is an in-house sports exhaust system with a stainless steel finishing with four end pipes, 88x74mm in diameter. With this, the Audi gives the driver a real sports car feeling.

For the wheels, only the best was good enough. On the right are Varianza TIS light metal rims and on the left, Scwhert (“Sword”) SC1 light metal rims in silver chrome with anodised lips 9×20 inches and 10.5×20 inches in size with 245/30 R20 und 295/25 R20er Vredestein tyres – they cause quite a sensation. You don’t need to trim the wheel arch edges for that!

Prestige in the interior is taken care of with surfaces made from leather and extensive carbon fibre applications. The carbon set at Senner Tuning Inc. includes a tacho blend, the S-Line sports steering wheel, an ash tray cover as well as a further extension of door applications, not exactly made with cheap material. The whole thing is completed with the convertible roof module by Senner Tuning Inc., which can be open and closed via radio signals.

Audi S5 Cabrio -HS Motorsport Review:

An exhaust silencer from Cargraphic with four round inclined rolled-in 89 mm exhaust pipes announces soon arrival of the Audi S5 Cabrio like a post-horn did in its time. At the present moment, there is only one version assigned for export.

The customers fairly expect over and over again something extraordinary from the HS Motorsport company from Eching, located near Munich, the more so the perfection for a valuable client is the highest precept for Bavaria’s tuner.Strictly speaking, the external loo k of the cabriolet from Ingolstadt doesn’t need any upgrades. Therefore, the crew begins with the engine output increase which is not visible at first glance. This results in the fact that substantial 375 HP instead of standard 333 HP are now waiting for calling. The maximum torque shows 525 Nm in comparison to initial 440 Nm, which is now blasting the crankshaft without mercy. Increasing the limit of Vmax to the new value of 290 km/h is just a logical way at such performance.

Tested version for Germany:

Wheel disks at the front axle in 9x21 inch with 255/30ZR21 tyres and in 10,5x21 inch with 295/25ZR21 tyres at the rear axle are produced by Cargraphic also. Use of Bilstein thread suspension B16 PSS10 ensures perfect match of the wheel/tyre combination to the wheel housings.On demand – and at this performance absolutely advisable – a brake system from Brembo with double 380x32 mm brake disks and 6-piston monoblock saddle for the front axle can be installed. In conclusion, various carbon parts for the external cover and also for the interior should be mentioned.

Audi TT RS is powered by all wheel drive system quattro. The engine is a high-tech 2.5-liter five-cylinder TFSI, with the incredible power of 340 hp between 5,400 and 6,500 rpm and reaches a maximum torque of 450 Nm (331.90 lb-ft) between 1,600 and 5,300 rpm. For this power helps Audi core technologies of turbocharging and FSI direct injection.

The Audi TT RS, the top-of-the-range TT model, can now also be ordered with a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. This enables the purist driving machine, which was developed by quattro GmbH, to make quite an impression with lightning-fast gear changes and a level of efficiency that is pioneering in its class. The TT RS Coupe consumes an average of 8.5 liters (27.67 US mpg) of fuel per 100 km and emits just 197 g/km (317.04 g/mile) of CO2.

Designed for high efficiency at every speed: The seventh gear is configured as a high-geared overdrive which reduces engine speed, thus cutting fuel consumption. The driver can choose between two fully automatic modes and the manual mode in which he changes gear using the shift paddles on the steering wheel or with the selector lever. In addition, a launch control function offers virtually perfect acceleration from a standing start, with maximum turbo power and minimum wheel spin. This enables the TT RS with S tronic to accelerate even faster than with a manual transmission. The Coupe sprints from zero to 100 km/h (62.14 mph) in just 4.3 seconds. Top speed is governed electronically at 250 km/h (155.34 mph). This speed restriction can be removed as an option.

The unique 2.5-liter five-cylinder TFSI engine in the Audi TT RS received the “International Engine of the Year Award” in June 2010. Fitted with the Audi core technologies of turbocharging and FSI direct injection, this power pack delivers 250 kW (340 hp) between 5,400 and 6,500 rpm and reaches a maximum torque of 450 Nm (331.90 lb-ft) between 1,600 and 5,300 rpm. In conjunction with quattro permanent all-wheel drive and a high-performance chassis, the five-cylinder engine produces an outstanding road performance.

"It's not decisive what we measure on the dynamometer but how many bhp you get on the road" says Roland Mayer, owner and Head of the technical Department of MTM. The right master plan has a bigger effect on driving dynamics, acceleration times and maximum speed than the search for a maximum in performance values.

•Audi tuner MTM drives 312 km/h with the TTRS in Nardo
•Sophisticated technique to ensure best driving values
•Complete package including wheels and brakes

How much engine performance do you need to break 300 km/h? The ones who think that this needs more than 500 bhp will learn that this is not correct. The TTRS with 472 bhp by MTM from Wettstetten / Ingolstadt was GPS measured to be 312 km/h at test runs on the Nardo highspeed track in Italy at the beginning of September 2010. For many other tuners a hard nut to crack despite of increased efficiency.

The MTM TTRS with 472 bhp doesn't has to fear the competition of other tuners, who are still fighting with 300 km/h and can't reduce 0-100 km/h time under 4.0 seconds despite a plus of 30 bhp.

MTM is one of the leading and at the same time the fastest of all Audi tuner worldwide. Within the last years engineers from Wettstetten showed best values: MTM RS6 R with a top speed of 344,2 km/h is the fastest station wagon in the world. A MTM customer drove this record in Nardo in 2009. Moreover the fastest Bentley GPS measured 331 km/h in 2008 is from Roland Mayers workshop.

The TT Bimoto with two engines set as well a new record by driving 393,6 km/h in Papenburg in 2007. Today the Bimoto is still holding the track record for street-legal cars in Nardo driven by Florian Gruber. Nardo test drives under extreme conditions are an important part of MTM development work. Outside temperature was temporary at 35 degrees celsius.

This time around, the German tuner have produced a package for the V10 model boosting power, a new suspension kit and a fresh set of alloys. It’s quite an understated package but we think it’s definitely worth a look.The Audi R8 V10 is simply spectacular, but after what we saw Wheelsandmore do with the V8 powered R8, we were absolutely ecstatic to see that they had decided to try their hand at the R8 V10. Already a powerful vehicle with 525hp, Wheelsandmore took this sports car to a completely different and exclusive level.

To increase serial power of the V10 engine they handcrafted a special stainless steel, valve controlled exhaust system, combined with an ECU upgrade obtaining enormous 600 hp and 590 lb of torque.

Wheelsandmore achieved even more agility by installing their new 3-piece wheels, available with unlimited colour and surface combinations. For the perfect visual appearance and handling they customized their “C-Sport“ model sizing 9,0×20“ with Continental Sport Contact III tyres 235/30/20 in the front and a 11,0×20“ with 295/25/20” tyres in the rear.

To lent the german sportscar a sportier performance, combined with more aggressive occurrence, the tuner adapted a KW race established special coilover with adjustable rebound and compression, hydraulically liftable around 1.77 inch.

It goes without saying that exhaust systems are the domain of Eisenmann. The Spark Eight by Eisenmann is fitted with a performance stainless steal system, with a gigantic tailpipe exit in the center of the rear spoiler (4600 Euro). This warrants a one-of-a-kind visual effect. Thanks to the flap control system, sound and optimal performance can be controlled with the push of a button. As an alternative Eisenmann offers an exhaust system with four stainless steel tailpipes (3800 Euro) that can be combined with the standard rear spoiler. The retro-classic intake funnel (1200 Euro) and the two oval tailpipes (1000 Euro) provide the look of the R10.

Eisenmann also ensures that the improved chassis matches the upgrade of visual effect and sound. The new shock absorbers with four performance springs (3850 Euro) increase the driving dynamic for even more agile handling characteristics. The 235/35 (front) and 315/30 (rear) tyres mounted on 8.5x19 inch alloy wheels ensure a solid grip (complete set available for 7300 Euro).

For the Spark Eight by Eisenmann, visual appearance, sound and performance enter into a perfect symbiosis. All of the above is based on experience Eisenmann has amassed in motoring. Many years of research and development for racetracks and motorways alike have merged into an unrivaled project.
