    Water to air intercoolers....plus I'm sure they are spraying meth as well.

    I agree with you man....!!!!


    This R8 is in a totally different leauge.... I have driven the V10 Coupe with R Tronic and PUSHED IT HARD so i know how quick it feels but this V10 TT is OUTRAGEOUS.....


    I would love to see them put it up against some other SUPER CARS....

    would it really need meth? over 5 liters and 10 cyl and two turbos.

    1/4 mile in what? under 10 seconds?

    You're answering your own question there The spray wouldn't be there for power, it'd be there to cool the intake air and raise the effective octane. A good meth spray system is as good as a top-notch front-mounted intercooler.

    I think it goes to show that the twin-turbo idea for the V10 was doable - it wasn't doable and still meet Euro emissions and noise standards I'll bet.
