Exterior styling

2016 PP Performance Audi RS7

Well, we all know how a RS7 model looks like: straight lines, massive proportions, eye-catching appearance and muscular stance. But what is new here is the color: it is some kind of chameleon finish that shines in red, purple, orange and copper. And it is simply fascinating. Along with it there are large and distinctive 21-inch Schmidt “Gambit” wheels and numerous carbon-fiber components. Definitely a piece of beauty. But let’s jump to the most interesting part.

Drivetrain system

Mercedes-AMG GT S and C63 S With Extra 100HP by PP-Performance

PP-Performance Mercedes-AMG GT S and Mercedes-AMG C63 S Front and Side View PP-Performance and Fostla.de showed us an exquisitely tuned Audi safety car exactly three days ago. Now the tuners at PP-Performance have prepared something, which has impressed us very much again. This time they did not modify only one car, but under their customization were two Mercedes-AMG beauties. The first one is C63 S and the second – even better, the GT S model. There is nothing much done here, except for the breath-taking work on the engine.

By the way, the engine under the hood of both cars is Mercedes-Benz 4.0 liters V8 biturbo unit. And we must also remind you that this powertrain is actually AMG’s variant. However, the specialists at PP-Performance weren’t that happy with the output, so let’s see what they have managed to achieve.

Mercedes-AMG C63 S: Before and After

Mercedes-AMG C63 S Front and Side View

As a standard the Mercedes-AMG C63 S produces no less than 510HP (375 kW) of power, 700Nm (517 lb-ft) of maximum torque. They come out from the 3,982 cm³ sized C-class engine. The top speed has been production limited to 250 kmph (155mph), while the sprint form 0 to 100 km/h has been estimated 4.0 seconds.

After the chip tuning, PP-Performance managed giving this Mercedes more than 100HP in addition. Precisely, the car is now capable to put out on the road 613HP (451 kW) and 769 Nm (568 lb-ft) of torque. The Vmax was also changed and it is now 307 kmph (190 mph), while the sprint from standstill to 100 km/h is a little bit better, 3.59 seconds.

Mercedes-AMG GT S: Before and After

PP-Performance Mercedes-AMG GT S Front and Side View

The standard V8 unit in the GT S class produces the following serial values: 510 HP (375 kW) and 650 Nm (480 lb-ft). Its top speed is 310 kmph (192 mph), while the sprint form 0 to 100 km/h has been measured 3.8 seconds. After the chip tuning, the specialists achieved 610 HP (449 kW) of power with 765 Nm (565 lb-ft) of maximum torque, 324 kmph (201 mph) of Vmax and 3.40 seconds for the above-mentioned sprint.

And if you want even more, PP-Performance is offering another extra 33 HP with the help of new racing filter, catless kit and engine characteristics optimization.

Fostla.de and PP-Performance Gather for a Special Audi RS3 Safety Car

Audi RS3 Safety Car by Fostla.de Front View Audi RS3 has been turned into a Safety Car via optical tuning and then taken to the experts at Fostla.de. They were working in collaboration with the power uprating specialists at PP-Performance to bring about the result we see in the pictures. The car looks stunning and very expressive, so let’s see in details what has happened to it.

After the serial Audi RS3 was modified into a safety car, the wrapping specialists have applied a full white foil to its exterior. Then they have added the details, thus creating a racing design effect. Partial wrapping of the rims followed by a stylish tinting of windows, and the front and rear lights, rounded out the work if Fostla.de.

To be as completed as possible, the safety car needed to be transformed in terms of power. Obviously, Fostla.de didn’t find enough the serial 350hp (250 kW) and 450 Nm (332 lb-ft) of the RS3. So they needed little help in boosting the stock engine.

They have eventually contacted the experts at PP-Performance, who ensured stage 3 tuning for this Audi. Via chip uprating, the output of the Audi is now 450 HP (331 kW) with the amazing 600 Nm (442 lb-ft) of optimum torque.

The greatest result is the 4 second time for the 0-100 km/h acceleration sprint. How cool is that? But wait, this is not all. The Vmax has been changed too, and it now reaches 310 kmph (190 mph).

Want more? You’ll get more with the BMC racing filter, the charge air cooler, the Wagner down pipe as well as the Milltek sports exhaust system. In other words, this project is definitely something to stare in awe. We like it very much and hope you have enjoyed it as much as we did!

PP-Performance Tunes Porsche 911 Turbo to the World Record [VIDEO]

PP-Performance released a video showing how a tweaked Porsche 911 Turbo is making a world record. The car covers the ¼ mile for 9.8s! The tuning company has put some more oomph into the probably most known Zuffenhausen sports car forge family member. After the engine intervention the serial horsepower numbers have been significantly raised. Precisely, the Porsche 911 Turbo produces 520 hp (382 kW) and maximum torque of 660 Nm (487 lb-ft) without the tuning.

The “surgical intervention” (as the professionals call it) into the engine techniques include PP-Performance Digital Racing Box, IPD intake plenum, 3-to-1 headers, downpipes, x-pipe and BMC high performance air filters. The result: the 911 Turbo model is capable of producing 670 horsepower (493 kW) and 820 Nm (605 lb-ft) of optimum torque.

But more importantly, this power boost gave the opportunity for the team to reach impressive acceleration values. In details, the car can now cover the 0-60 mph sprint within 2.5 seconds instead of the serial 3.4 seconds. This literally means that the 911 Turbo’s acceleration time equals with Bugatti Veyron 16.4.

In addition, the car also made a speed world record, which you can view below. Instead of 11.1 seconds of the serial version, the 120 mph limit is reached by PP-911 within 8.2 seconds. In addition, the 9.8 seconds world record in the corresponding class for the ¼ mile on dragstrip is also no wonder! See for yourself:

PP-Performance and Fostla.de Get Creative on BMW M5

Last week we’ve seen this great PP-Performance project on Ferrari F12berlinetta. Now it is time for the tuners to collaborate with the specialists at Fostla.de and get creative on a BMW M5 Series. First, the foiling experts wrapped entirely the BMW 550i F10 with gray-olive-mat-metallic foil. There are also accents like the shiny-black wrapped shadow-line-elements.

To harmonize the dark look, the windows and the front and rear lamps were tinted. In shining black come the front bumper lip and the rear diffusor. There are even some parts in the interior that include wrappings. Next, the steering wheel has been created by fostla.de and was coated with leather and soft cushioning.

The tuners added H&R lowering springs that lower the vehicle with 35 mm and Yido Performance YP1 Talia wheels of 20 inches in 9×20 ET35 on front and 10×20 ET35 on rear axle. The rim set is offered by fostla.de. They were fitted with Michelin Pilot Sports tires in 245/35ZR20 on front and 285/30ZR20 on the rear axle.

In addition, right before mounting, there have been added 5 mm wheel spacers. The racing sports exhaust system includes downpipes, which also play their part for M5’s performance.

PP-Performance stepped in when it came to the engine tuning. The performance was achieved via stage-2 motor electronics modification, downpipes and maximum speed unlocking. Thanks to this the tuner managed to improve the power significantly. The result of the enhancement is 570 hp (419 kW) and 800 Nm (590 lb-ft).

PP-Performance Has Power Tweaks for Ferrari F12berlinetta

When two companies dedicated to exclusivity, style and performance merge into one project, the result is something like the next car we are to present to you. PP-Performance has redefined the concept for power of the Ferrari F12berlinetta and the end result is stunning. Well, they didn’t focus that much on the appearance, because under their attention was the most important part of the Ferrari – the engine.

Instead of the typical and almost iconic color for the F12berlinetta, the specialists chose a white car to work on. To go into details, some modifications were added to car’s 6.3-liters-V12-engine. Such are the BMC Race filter and the complete Frequency Intelligent (FI) catless exhaust system. The FI plays a significant role in the “power explosion”, when the driver pushes the accelerator pedal.

But atop of the engine “surgery” is the optimization of the engine control. PP-Performance did this with its own software. The complete kit uprates the horsepower of the Ferrari from 740 hp (544 kW) to 795 “perky horses” (585 kW).

The torque is also raised from 690 Nm (509 lb-ft) to 730 Nm (539 lb-ft). And if you wonder about acceleration time, well the answer is 2.9 seconds for the sprint from 0 to 100 km/h and 8.0 seconds from 0 to 200 km/h. Compared to the serial accelerations times, this is a 0.2 seconds and 0.5 seconds improvement, respectively.
