The latest Audi sedans are the fastest yet, utilizing cutting-edge engine and chassis technology to achieve impressive numbers in every measurable performance test. However, these vehicles – the V8-powered S4 and extreme performance RS4 – must balance high-performance handling with consumer driving and comfort expectations. Now you can take your Audi’s handling to the next level, with the all-new Audi B6/B7 Sport Sway Bar Package from Hotchkis Performance.

Designed to eliminate body roll and improve driver control, the new Hotchkis Sport Sway Bar Package for Audi B7 RS4 and B7/B6 S4 is engineered for road course, autocross, and high performance street driving applications. The kit includes a lightweight, durable 35MM tubular steel front sway bar that is 60% stiffer than stock, and a massive 29mm, 2-position tubular adjustable rear bar. The rear bar is adjustable from +235%, to +305% increase in stiffness over stock RS4, allowing suspension to be finely tuned for optimum handling balance. The result is increased slip angle allowing power to be applied earlier during corner exit. Both bars are finished in durable black powder coat. Also included in the kit are polyurethane bushings, bushing brackets and 90-degree zerk fittings for easy lubrication. Due to the aggressive tuning of this package, it is designed primarily for high performance driving.

KW suspensions announces their Variant 3 stainless steel constructed coil-over for the 2006+ Audi S6.

The KW coilover suspensions for the 2006+ Audi S6 enables the owner to lower their vehicle 0-40mm on the front axle and 0-40mm on the rear axle and retains enough travel to handle maximum load and dynamic loads during driving. Variant 3 permits an even higher degree of customization to the suspension. Adjustable (and independent reacting) rebound and compression damping allows a truly individual performance driving setup for those technically demanding drivers. Compression dampening adjustment is conducted in the low-speed range, while the high-speed set-up, so decisive for driving comfort, has been pre set by KW engineers.

Tire Rack- Revolutionizing Tire Buying

The design studies already show the first impressions of Abt’s sportiest creation – and prove that the Kempten-based tuner manages to perfect an excellent serial model like the R8 to detail and accentuate its racing genes already in the drawing. The front of the Bavarian R8 shows the marked Abt face. Together with the unique and beautiful rear with its four inclined arranged exhaust end pipes, the rear diffuser and the extravagant rear wing, the front of the Abt R8 is part of an overall concept that brings about phenomenal roadholding. The add-on parts of the super sports cars from the Allgäu-region improve downforce and ensure perfect balance of the front and rear axis. This is especially notable in speed ranges reserved for only a few cars. The sideblades which were developed especially for the Abt R8 and the Abt side skirts give the Abt R8 a new and individual design besides aerodynamical advantages.

A car of Abt Sportsline is characterised by several factors: Beside considerably more power against the serial model and the guaranteed and reliable high-end performance, a matching brake system is part of the fast sports cars from Kempten. Abt brakes decelerate precisely and complement the additional power optimally. The brake systems of Abt Sportsline manage every situation and are biting tools when required. Their outstanding qualities are not only available for cars which have been upgraded in power by the Bavarians, the brake systems also offer “normal“ Volkswagen or Audi models additional safety.

There is more to it than sheer power – handling is just as important. The more controlled a car can be moved in threshold, the greater the driving pleasure. Abt Sportsline knows how important the coordination of power increase, braking and suspension technology is, as only the perfect interaction of all components enable the Bavarian’s successes in motor sports. The suspension plays a vital role so therefore the engineers with Abt have worked on the optimization and improvement of the driving dynamics right from the start. Behind the latest development which is based on the Frequency-Selective-Damping technology, short ISC (Intelligent Suspension Control), stands an extremely innovative solution: Abt Sportsline’s ISC damper automatically identifies the operating conditions, adapts to the individual manners of driving and changing situations within a split seconds.

The Bavarian family-run company Abt Sportsline has a long and successful tradition in motor sports thus enabling their customers who want to customize their Audi, VW, SEAT or Skoda to profit from their experience. Increased engine power, improved roadholding due to sports suspension kits, biting brakes as well as body styling parts, wheels and exhaust systems which optically and acoustically underline the performance of an Abt vehicle. The outside body language is dynamical and bold; the performance is sporty and racy so therefore the car interior can impossibly be equipped with boring, rubber-coated pedals and plastic shift knob communicating conservatism. Due to this reason Abt Sportsline offers new pedal overlays and foot rests made of aluminium with firm rubber knobs bringing additional motor sports flair into the cockpit. The matt-anodized pedals with the Abt-logo are available for manual as well as for automatic transmission. They do not only look elegant and sporty, they also guarantee firm and secure hold so that you won’t want to take your foot off the acceleration pedal, however, luckily also braking becomes more enjoyable.
