This is German tuner Wheelsandmore’s idea on how an R8 V10 Plus can be improved, and it is a bold one.
Visual tweaks aside, the most important upgrades have been made to the mid-mounted 5.2-liter V10, which produces up to 240 PS (237 HP) and 170 Nm (125 lb-ft) more in Stage 3, after installing a supercharger kit, forged connecting rods, high-performance pistons, modified flywheel and ECU, bringing the total output up to 850 PS (838 HP) and 730 Nm (538 lb-ft) of torque.
If this seems too extreme, the aftermarket specialists have Stages 2 and 1 in their portfolio too, with 167 PS (165 HP)/140 Nm (103 lb-ft) and 35 PS (35 HP)/25 Nm (18 lb-ft) more, respectively. Making the car easier to handle is a Drexler locking differential and the power package is completed by a handcrafted exhaust with valve-flap system.
The package, dubbed “Beastie Toys”, also includes adjustable full racing coilover suspension with hydraulic lift-up function at the front axle and Wheelsandmore’s Audi R8 V10 Plus rides on 0.5×20 and 12×21-inch forged rims, wrapped in 225/30/20 and 325/25/21 Continental Sport Contact 5P tires.
