Wow… that is crazy… Go APR!
Man, sometimes the new models just make you feel silly for even modding the older platforms.
like which older platform?
Most people owning an older platform aren’t going to spend 130k for a timeslip.
why is that
The overwhelming majority of the cars assembled in canada for ford, Toyota, chrysler, honda, VW don’t even get sold here.
Excited to see how it performs
[QUOTE=Arin@APR;9556342]We’re taking the RS7 to the TX2K14 event this weekend and decided to give it a little more juice.
We removed the cats, loaded it up with 104 and dialed in more power. Everything else is stock, including the cooling, exhaust from the catalyst back, intake and filter, etc. The car will also run at the event with everything else stock, including the tires, wheels, full interior, etc.
The end results was 680 AWHP and 775 AWFT-LBS of torque. We estimate that to be 749 Horsepower and 818 FT-LBS of Torque at the crank.
Hopefully it’s quick and turns a few heads! Just for a frame of reference, we did 10.6 @ 129 MPH with only 93 octane and stage 1.
The chart shows figures at the wheels, crank, and our estimated drivetrain loss

that’s a staggering amount of power. Full boost at 3000 RPM, and 3500 is comfortably in boost. Pretty wild.
interesting how hard it falls off from 3000 right to redline. Guess the turbos are maxed out (which is funny because they’re a good size).
It is making 600+ whp from 4750 to redline. That’s insane area in the range that matters for acceleration.
I looked at the TX2K14 list…

…real fucking exciting
I completely respect the GTR and think it would be a very fun car to own. However, everyone knows they’re fast and they draw absurd amounts of attention on the road. I’d rather rock sleeper status and surprise people, which is exactly what APR is going to do.
to be honest, I doubt they’ll surprise too many people at that event. It’s an insane group of cars. You’re basically not even talked about without 1200+ hp. Really crazy.
So Arin what is going on with the RS7s that are misfiring?
What’s funny is that they all dyno lol
TX2K14 WRX VS RS7!!: http:// youtu.be/HLlJsDqA9eU
Kids are like 15, and loosing there minds, but the 7 sounds good!
Winner of most annoying video ever
Good god that car is fast.
(and I wish I had my speakers on mute)
Damn I want that car bad…
Ya got to sit in one today at the Vancouver Auto Show, the amount of people constantly around that car is crazy! The car has Such a presence!
Audi made a mistake. ; )
What else is new?
By the way, kiku ran a 10.8 twice at Atco on April Fools day.
Nice!
I just got word that someone ran a 10.6 @ 131. I’m asking my dealers to get me more details.
