With every modification you do to your vehicle, you want to make sure it is improving the driveability and aesthetically looks good on your car. We noticed that the Audi DSG paddle shifters were definitely lacking in this department. The smaller shifter made it hard to quickly bang through the gears on the street, mountain roads, and on the track. While keeping your hands on the steering wheel in the appropriate position, you would have to take your hand off the wheel in a turn to reach for the small OEM paddle. What Agency Power has developed is a complete replacement paddle for the Audi DSG paddle shifter transmission.

These aluminum paddle shifters are CNC machined 6061 aluminum that is precision engineered to fit on to the stock electronic switch module. Each paddle curves in the shape of the steering wheel and is beveled to provide an easy grip and quick shift no matter where you press on it. The shifters are approximately 6 inches in length compared to the stock one which is almost 3 inches. Each paddle features a very clean engraved + and – sign which is then available painted in either blue, red, white, or silver. The paddles come in a flat satin black anodized finish. The installation of the paddle shifters is approximately 1 hour. Paddle shifters are sold as a pair, left and right, and include the Agency Power warranty. Paddles fit the following models: Audi A3, A4, A6, A8, and Q7 2005+

Vivid Racing attended the 2008 Hot Import Nights show here in Arizona at Phoenix International Raceway. We brought out our Project Audi A3 to turn some heads and then figured we would bring the show stopper, Nissan GT-R out. Its stock, but it still draws a crowd! We headed out to the setup early Friday afternoon. Upon arrival to the track, there was a Porsche Carrera GT and Noble M15 testing on Firebird’s West Track… Totally seperate from HIN. We parked our cars in the designated spot and walked around briefly. Many incredible cars from California turned up. This included a widebody Audi A4, full J’s Racing S2000 with Vivid Racing sticker, and even some Subaru’s including the picture below rockin the Agency Power wheels.

Listen to the jet sound of the Vivid Racing Audi A3 on our Mustang Dyno as the Stasis Engineering turbo kit rips past the 300 horsepower mark.  The Stasis turbo kit takes the stock 2.0T to the next level like the European S3.  In conjunction with our other parts from Agency Power, K&N, and Neuspeed, this A3 pounds through the DSG gears at an incredible rate.  Stay tuned for our next modification with a Forge front mount intercooler!  Check out the YouTube video of our A3 in action.

Vivid Racing was brought a Audi A3 to do some special work on recently.  This car was already looking stout on some BBS CH wheels.  To give it a great stance we installed and aligned the car with some H&R lowering springs.  Not being biased at all with our own red Audi A3 project car :), we had to showcase this clean German wagon to the blog.

With the car building of our Project Audi A3, Vivid Racing is expanding its abilities into the Audi and Volkswagen market.  As a new sponsors of the www.vwvortex.com forums, Vivid Racing decided to offer FREE dyno runs for Audi VW customers so we could show them our top level customer service, facility, and performance products.  This Audi A4 1.8T was brought in to Vivid Racing’s Mustang All Wheel Drive dyno to get some runs in.  The car featured a GIAC flash, exhaust system, and a turbo upgrade.
