The Audi R8 has made a splash for its exotic-like qualities, without reaching as high into the price ranges of sports http://www.automoblog.net/2011/04/12/ppi-germany-takes-r8-performance-to-extreme/ - cars like the Lamborghini Gallardo and Ferrari 458 Italia. The R8 GT changes that up a bit with its $198,000 price tag, but we digress – the Audi R8 V-8 is a compelling proposition with its mid-engined layout and a striking design. To have exotic-level performance to match, German tuning company PPI Automotive Design GmbH is offering a new supercharger system on the heels of its turbocharged unit last year.

I don't mean to sound disrespectful, but they're a bit late to the party. MTM supercharged the R8 http://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=7&ved=0CDQQFjAG&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.insideline.com%2Faudi%2Fr8%2F2008%2F2008-audi-r8-mtm-supercharged-first-drive.html&ei=y0ulTfryM4L2swP49aWpDQ&usg=AFQjCNEVoGwx59RPYV1sfN_08Ph4-9LRdQ - within weeks of the R8's release , and when the V10 came out, STaSIS went ahead and http://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CB4QFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.quattroholic.com%2F2010%2F10%2Fstasis-supercharges-audi-r8-v10-spyder.html&ei=aUulTcmfOpTEsAOeh52hDQ&usg=AFQjCNFicPqIH80HokDuTDv00Gz0Qq0_YQ - decided to supercharge it too. ------------- Never shift into reverse without a back-up plan. |
