MTM Geneva Show Display Includes Fastest Audi R8 with 777HP and TT RS with 472HP

Among the many tuning firms making their way to the Geneva Motor Show is VW Group specialist MTM. The German company will display two heavily modified Audi models, based on the R8 V10 and the TT RS. The most impressive proposal is the one-off MTM R8 Biturbo that comes with a polished chrome body that took over 700 working hours to complete. A large fixed spoiler at the back along with 20-inch forged rims and carbon fiber parts round off the exterior changes. However, the most striking aspect of the tune is hidden underneath the shiny body as MTM has modified the V10 engine to produce a whopping 777-horses and 888 Nm (655 lb-ft) of peak torque for a 0 to 100km/h (62mph) sprint time of 3.0 seconds. The R8 BiTurbo also accelerates from naught to 200km/h (124mph) in 9.37 seconds and to 300 km/h (186mph) in 19.42 seconds, en route to a top speed 350km/h (218mph). The conversion also includes an adjustable sports suspension and massive MTM brakes with 8-piston calipers at the front and rear axle. Currently a one-off model, the MTM R8 Biturbo is said to cost over €400,000 or about US$550,500. MTM's second tuned vehicle is the TT RS that sports a 2.5-liter turbocharged inline-five producing 472-horsepower that was recently tested at Nardo achieving a top speed of 312km/h (194mph).

MTM Audi RS5 WallpaperMTM Audi RS5 WallpaperMTM Audi RS5 WallpaperIn one of its more 'lighter' tuning proposals, MTM has released details on its new line of performance upgrades for the Audi RS5 coupe. Instead of fiddling around with the RS5's 450HP V8 engine to increase the car's top speed, the German tuning simply reprograms the factory electronic speed limiter of 250km/h or 280 km/h, allowing the coupe to reach a maximum velocity of 303 km/h or 188mph. The cost for the removal of the speed limiter is a hefty €1,499 or a little over US$1,900 at today's exchange rates.MTM's program also includes a stainless steel sports exhaust system with throttle valves for €2,998 (US$3,850) and nine-spoke alloy rims, which are available in sizes 19", 20" and 21", with prices starting from €2,249 (US$2890). According to the tuner, an individually adjustable spring-kit is in development and will be offered later this year.

Car Reviews : 2010 MTM Audi S5 Cabriolet by Automobile

As delivered by the factory, Audi's S5 Cabriolet makes for a charismatic convertible. Although lacking the V-8 grunt of its fixed-roof sibling, it offers an enticing combination of power and style, yet is comfortable and benign enough to use as a daily driver. Is there any way to improve upon Ingolstadt's invention?Moteren Technik Meyer, or MTM, certainly thinks so. The heralded German tuning firm feels a few subtle tweaks can turn Audi's shapely roadster from mild to wild.Arguably, the most significant modification lurks within the electrical system. MTM's M-Cantronic engine controller contains the recalibrated engine computer mapping that allow drivers to explorer new frontiers with Audi's supercharged 3.0-liter V-6.In stock form, the 3.0T engine produces a commendable 333 horsepower between 5500-7000 rpm, and 325 pound-feet of torque at 2900-5300 rpm. Install MTM's tuning module and a new exhaust system, and those figures jump to an impressive 430 horsepower and 379 pound feetMTM Audi S5 CabrioletMTM Audi S5 CabrioletMTM Audi S5 CabrioletThe modifications are mild, perhaps, but it still takes both skill and finesse to implement them in a seamless fashion. MTM's execution is flawless; everything looks, feels, and functions as if it were engineered by Audi itself. Cars equipped with Audi's Drive Select controller, for instance, still retain their variable settings; MTM's 430 horsepower is only fully unleashed once the driver selects the sport setting.Full review here..

And with a 560 HP supercharged engine? The answer is also short. Yes it exists! It is call the MTM Audi R8 GT3-2 Packing 560 horsepower (412 kW) and rear-wheel-drive, the supercharged 4.2 FSI V8 puts down 580 Nm (428 lb-ft) of torque to help it pop 100 km/h (62 mph) in around 3.9 seconds. Top speed arrives at a claimed 317 km/h (197 mph). The Audi R8 GT3-2 ditches all-wheel drive for rear-wheel drive. Elsewhere, the company installed a differential lock, an adjustable sports suspension, an improved braking system, aerodynamic carbon fiber body parts (front spoiler, side skirts and rear wing), and 20-inch forged wheels with Dunlop Sport Maxx GT (or Michelin Cup Sport) tires.
