    I like the idea!

    Especially this part:

    "MTM also offers this enormous power improvement for the Audi R8 with the V10-engine. By exchanging the motor electronics, the performance of the latter then increases from 520 hp (388 kW) to 560 hp (418 kW) as well."

    Surely there's a change to the electronics of the engine as well?

    i think you can make up 50-75% of the "lost" power with a less restrictive exhaust. another 25% with a chip tuning. 3-4K and you're there.

    that doesn't change the weight difference, but the acceleration differences between the two will be negligible at that point imo. in handling i already think the R8 is better- no mods needed there. if anything, the LP560 needs THOSE mods.
    Past- A4, TT, S4

    Present- R8 V10
