Sport-Wheels Audi R8 Spyder

You’ve just got to love tuners. Good tuners that is. Why? Because for these guys no supercar on Earth is fast or exclusive enough and they can't take a swansong and give a nice remix.

This is exactly what Sport-Wheels has done with the V10 version of the Audi R8 Spyder, with the German topless vehicle having both its appearance and its performance enhanced.

The tuning house offers two power levels for the R8. The first one takes the car’s naturally aspirated 5.2 liter V10 engine from its stock figures of 525 hp and 530 Nm of torque to 565 hp and 560 Nm of torque.

Level two forces the V10 powerplant to offer the driver no less than 600 hp and 580 Nm of torque to play with. This has been achieved through the use of a special exhaust muffler and a new ECU software.

The R8 Spyder now communicates with the road via a modified suspension and a set of 20 inch rims that use 305/25 tires for the rear axle and 235/30 tires for the front one.

“What a thrilling undertaking it would be to drive the Audi R8 Spyder with 600 HP in even more impressive style! The company Sport-Wheels from the city of Hurth, located south of Cologne is under the creative leadership of Christoph Poensgen. Christoph Poensgen has gladly taken on the task of making this wish come true and turning it into a reality. The result is enough to make those with weak constitutions buckle at the knees,”
