Make any car electric? That is what Polykup is promising. It sure sounds interesting and there is proof of the concept working. The owner swapped a Tesla electric motor into his Audi S5 Quattro and, yes, managed to keep the all wheel drive drivetrain. ...Published on 08-08-2019 07:10 PM
Dyno Spectrum helped fine tune this stout McLaren 650S over on the World Motorsports Mustang dyno. This McLaren 650S features the Pure Turbos Pure900 M838T hybrid turbochargers which are capable of quite a bit of power. ...Published on 08-07-2019 06:11 PM
Great to see more and more McLaren 720's upgrading their M840T turbochargers. This example went with the Pure Turbos hybrid solution which is propelling some very, very fast McLaren 720's. ...Published on 08-07-2019 05:54 PM
The Pista is the real deal. Is it as fast as a McLaren 720S? No, but it is close enough for Ferrari to longer be embarrassing themselves considering what their cars cost versus McLarens. Especially when McLaren offers more exotic materials and lightweight construction for far less money. ...Published on 07-29-2019 02:00 PM
This is an interesting development in the McLaren tuning world. Syvecs is well known for their plug and play standalone applications especially when it comes to higher end cars such as Porsche 911 Turbos and Lamborghini Huracans. ...Published on 07-18-2019 06:22 PM
HRE is one of the biggest names in the aftermarket wheel game. Over the past few years though we have seen the prices increase yet quality and customer service issues have popped up. For the premium HRE charges you expect the best of the best. ...Published on 07-16-2019 10:52 PM
Great to see some 1/2 mile runs with some high end hardware you rarely get independent numbers for. The Ferrari 812 Superfast in particular is not a car you see running too often and it is great to see it run the 1/2 mile along with the 488 GTB. ...Published on 07-10-2019 11:24 PM
California is a lost cause. Whomever thought this was a good idea needs to be removed immediately from government work. Part of the appeal of a car for many is doing your own work (whatever that may entail) in the comfort of your own garage. ...Published on 07-10-2019 10:41 PM
This is a test many of us were waiting for as it includes popular summer performance street tires most enthusiasts run on their own cars but it includes the big new entry into the category. That would be the Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersport. ...Published on 06-30-2019 05:04 PM
Californians had the opportunity to repeal a gas tax that added 12 cents per gallon to their gasoline. They failed to do so and now the state is levying another tax on top of that increase of 5.6 cents per gallon. ...Published on 06-29-2019 05:20 PM
Very solid gains here with simple bolt on tuning on a McLaren 720S M840T V8. This 720S is tuned on 93 octane pump fuel and the baseline was 675 rear wheel horsepower in STD correction on the Dynojet. This is a linked Dynojet. ...Published on 06-28-2019 05:51 PM
If you have been around tuning long enough you have likely heard the name Motec. They are a popular choice for serious engine management namely in high end racing applications but also high end tuner builds. ...Published on 06-28-2019 04:56 PM
This is amusing as the loudmouth Hellcat owner bit off more than he could chew. The Hellcat is spraying a 200 shot or so and apparently the torque (or the laughing gas) went to the guy's head as he demands a 50-150 race. ...Published on 06-24-2019 01:03 PM
This is very big everyday power to have in the lightweight McLaren MP4-12C. It also shows what a tuning value the MP4-12C is today. Even if limited to 91 octane pump fuel Weistec can get you into the mid-700 wheel horsepower range thanks to their upgrade packages tuned for supplemental methanol injection. ...Published on 06-21-2019 10:25 AM
This is not the first time Chris Harris has made this implication of Ferrari cheating. He does not outright call them cheaters in the video below but states Ferrari showed up with their own car and five technicians to ensure it set the Top Gear track lap record. ...
