Audi S8 Plus
by McChip-DKR
The S8 plus is one seriously capable luxury
hauler thanks to its 605 PS V8 petrol unit.
The 4.0-liter
engine also produces 700 Nm of torque which helps the car get from
0 to 100 km/h in just 3.8 seconds. This is where McChip-DKR's Stage 3
tuning pack comes in, ramping power output and torque figures to a whooping 789
PS at 6,600 rpm to go with the 927 Nm of torque, peaking at
4,500 rpm.
The tuner
needed to strap on their mc780 turbocharger and a Capristo exhaust system in
order to complete the build, which took just 4 days to finish.
Unfortunately, they haven't released any acceleration or top speed figures, but we reckon it
will easily beat those 3.8 seconds when sprinting to 100 km/h. By
comparison, ABT's S8 plus tune took the German super-saloon to 705 PS, which
resulted in a sprint time of 3.5 seconds and an unrestricted top speed of 320 km/h.
Safe to say
this thing should be a bit faster than that.
