Audi TT RS – Automobiles Review

Audi team announces details for the new 2019 TT RS machine!

2019 Audi TT RS comes with even more appealing looks and even more dynamic driving dynamics. Making its debut at the New York International Auto Show. The revised vehicle introduces Audi enthusiasts and byers to a new face, enhanced technologies and tons of standard features. Let‘s check out more!

Exterior design

The new family member features one of the most aggressive appearances yet in the entire Audi lineup. With its matte black Singleframe grille and Quattro script, the TT RS meets new model year with even more confidence and elegance. Additional radiators are located behind the honeycomb grille and improve the cooling process, while the wide and muscular stance remind everyone that Audi engineers know what they are doing!

Standard features include full LED headlights with LED daytime running lights and standard LED taillights with dynamic rear turn signals. Furthermore, the TT RS is offered with OLED rear taillights for an impressive 3D design.

And last, but most certainly not least, 2019 TT RS can be specified with neat 19-inch 5-arm Audi Sport wheels in titanium matte finish and optional 20-inch Audi Sport 7-spoke design forged wheels with red brake calipers and a Sport exhaust system with black tips.

Interior design

The cabin is entirely driver-focused, which does not mean that any kind of comfort or utility features we compromised or removed. In fact, driver and passengers will enjoy a smooth ride with fine Nappa leather RS Sport seats with honeycomb stitching and deeply sculpted adjustable side bolsters.

There are also Audi virtual cockpit, an entire digital instrument cluster with 3D graphics, Audi phone box, smartphone incorporation, Bang & Olufsen audio system and numerous more gadgets that altogether ensure pleasurable and rewarding driving experience.

Drivetrain system

New Audi TT RS comes with a 2.5-liter TFSI power unit, a distinctive five-cylinder system that generates a total of 394 horsepower and 35lb-ft of torque. This leads to a pretty fast 3.6-second sprint from 0 to 100km/h and also to a rather responsive and smooth acceleration, due to the exclusive 1-2-3-4-5-3 ignition sequence. This means that the ignition alternates between the adjacent cylinder and those further apart. Neat!

The output power is proceeded via a seven-speed S tronic dual-clutch gearboc that provides high levels of performance and acceleration. With S tronic dual-clutch gearbox, TT RS also offers a launch control program that allows a heightened level of acceleration through engine speed and automated clutch release. Additionally, the standard Quattro permanent AWD system comes with the capability to send nearly 100 per cent of the available torque to the rear wheels. At the same time, a dedicated traction control system manages the distribution for optimal acceleration with minimal slip.

Meet the Strongest Audi TT RS on the Planet!

HPerformance Audi TT RS Front View Despite, the strong start of the auto show in Los Angeles, there are other ‘things’ going on in the automotive world and we should not deprive you from them. An instance is the latest project of the HPerformance based on the Audi TT RS. As a matter of fact, the tuning team claims that this is the worldwide strongest TT RS ever produced and the reason for this is that it pumps out 750 PS.

The team has already dealt with this model, but the horses it achieved were no more than 510 (read in the article in the link below). However, this time these talented guys were brave enough to create a TT RS worth of the number 750. And it might really be the strongest among all Audi TT RS cars out there.

HPerformance Audi TT RS Engine

At the heart of the customization is the modified GTX-35 turbocharger. It was applied to an in-house-made exhaust manifold. How about the cooling? It happens via company’s own charge air cooler. The air feed is guaranteed by a 90 mm air intake and it goes out through 90 mm Clubsport exhaust system.

Furthermore, the fuel feed was also ‘touched’ a little bit with the help of a modified high-pressure fuel pump and new optimized injectors. Audi R8 ceramics brake system was also installed, in order to tame the wild 750 PS.

At last, prepare to see more from the TT RS soon, because HPerformance is currently working on a tuning kit, which will trespass this power range too. Stay tuned!

HPerformance Imagines Audi TT RS Clubsport in a Very Nice Way

HPerformance Audi TT RS Clubsport is a project we couldn’t pass. The car not only looks amazing with its black ‘dress’ and purposeful stance, but also has more power than its stock siblings. This of course, brings it one step closer to the dream car of many (including me) with its 500+HP potency.

So basically the tuners at HPerformance, who are by the way from Germany, have specialized in hardware and software modifications for the AUDI 5 cylinder models. Their practice has also led them to optimizing the present car: the stunning Audi TT RS Clubsport. Let’s see the effects they have achieved on it.

HPerformance Tuning in Details

HPerformance has developed specific software for this Audi with the cool guys at MRT Performance. The uprate is ‘rated’ stage 5 and is supported by HPXT530 turbocharger, in-house made charge air cooler and 90 mm suction device with Ram air function.

Furthermore, the specialists have also installed plugs and high-pressure pump. As a matter of fact, due to the addition of 90 mm piping, the HPerformance Clubsport exhaust export version ‘screams’ like never before. The smart tuning for this TT RS includes new rollover bar, KW coilovers, Uniball strut towers and Mov’it racing brake system. The latter has 370×35 mm brake discs on the front and discs in 342×28 mm on the rear axle.

Enhanced Aerodynamics and End Result

Audi TT RS Plus By OK-Chiptuning

OK-Chiptuning is a company which is popular for the software optimization of engine control units that it performs on exclusive car models. The latest power boosting of the tuners was done on a 2013 Audi TT RS Plus and resulted in maximum output and more powerful torque characteristics with fuel economy effects.

This white Audi’s engine is coupled with a 7 speed S-tronic transmission, and originally delivers more than 360 horsepower (265 kW) and 465 Nm (343 lb-ft) of torque. The chip tuning began firstly by the installation of a Wagner Evo 2 charge air cooler, and then proceeded to the correspondent ECU software and S-tronic (DQ500) optimization.

After this was perfectly implemented, the specialists at OK-Chiptuning added a brand new DK-Turbotecnic Dortmund exhaust system with valve control which begins at the turbocharger. As a result, the Audi got 453 horsepower (333 kW) and 659 Nm (486 lb-ft) of maximum torque.

The transformation of the TT RS Plus did not stop here but continued with the driving dynamics. Precisely, an H&R club sport chassis has been combined with a stabilizer kit of the same origins and adjustable coupling bars. Then, adjustable aluminum strut bearings have been added.

This amount of horsepower had to be respectfully transmitted onto the road via OZ rims type Ultraleggera HTL in size 9×19 ET42 coupled with Toyo Proxes tyrse in the dimension of 255/35-19. At last, the carbon rear wings as well as the front and rear apron were black coated.

FolienCenter-NRW Audi TT RS In Chrome Red Delivers 501 HP

Chromium wrapping is expected to be one of the most important trends that are happening at the moment. For this reason the wrapping experts at FolienCenter-NRW have given a new skin to this Audi TT RS in exceptional “chromium red” prototype wrap of Hexis.

Thanks to this, the Audi becomes an absolute attention “grabber”. Furthermore, the red chrome gives the perfect contrast to the elements in matt silver, such as the exterior mirror which is in factory-chosen matt silver, as well as the high-gloss consolidated Audi RS6 rims.

To be more precise, the 9×20 inches rims are covered all round with Hankook S1 Evo tires of 225/30R20. In addition, Bilstein B16 coil-over suspension is responsible for the opulent lowering.

What is more, the unit under the hood has been also reworked with the help of LOBA motorsports components: LO500P turbo charger, charge air inter-cooler, fuel pump; and the better high-performance ignition plugs and a final software optimization by FTS Fahrzeugtechnik.

The result is that the five-cylinder TFSI engine generates now exactly 501 horsepower (368 kW) from its 2.5 liter cubic capacity and maltreats the Sachs-Performance clutch with a maximum torque of 563 Newton meters (415 lb-ft).

That is not all! This Audi has a deep voice to show thanks to the Milltek exhaust system following up on the HJS racing catalytic converters. It has the ability to cover the sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.6 seconds on its way to the top speed of 320 km/h.

Audi TT RS – Moments of Truth [HD video]

The new TT RS has a true racing pedigree just like the legendary 90 Quattro model. The German manufacturer claims that there is a connection between the 5-cylinder Quattro and the hot new TT RS.

Both cars put the power on the road through Quattro AWD and have 5-cylidner turbocharged engine. However, Audi 90 Quattro in its race version had around 600 horsepower, which is almost double than the 360HP in the 2.5-liter of the TT RS.

Also the rally car was just 1 090kg (2403 lbs) meaning a stunning power-to-weight ratio. The performance is incredible. 0 -100 km/h in 3.1 seconds and the top speed depended on the selection of gears. Some of the car had a special power-shift gearbox, which resembles the double-clutch technology.

The TT RS is also very fast to 100 km/h – only 4.1 seconds and a top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph) – electronically limited.
