With 13 year veteran of Scottsdale Audi, our Service Manager Jeff Aguilar knows how to take care of the Audi customers quite well. Whether it is OEM maintenance or performance modifications, our service center does some exceptional work.  If you have not seen our very own Project Audi A3, you can see some of the technical aspects we got into with adding a StaSIS turbo kit, Rotora big brake kit, JIC Cross coilovers, and more.

This first B6 A4 showed up with only springs and the beautiful OEM blue color as seen here.  Jeff and his team flashed the ECU with OCT Tuning and then started updating the exterior of the vehicle.  First, we had his roof and hood 2toned with a gloss black finish.  Next we matched his wheels and had each powdercoated gloss black.  We then added a Euro RS4 front grill to finish it off.  This car came in looking good but left amazing!

Next fresh from Ohio is AudiChic.  Lets just say she has the sickest A4 we have seen rolling around AZ.  Hey AudiChic… trade you for the Porsche?  This car features traditional HRE 540R 19″ wheels that are black with a polished lip.  Obviously the car is lowered and the combination of the 2toned black and gray paint set off the twin Neuspeed exhaust nicely.  Besides the HRE Wheels, nothing was held back with the Brembo front and rear big brake kit.  The front end showed off a massive front mount intercooler kit.  Look inside and see the rare RS4 Euro steering wheel with Sparco Milano Bucket seats and a system powered up by Diamond Audio.  She does not mess around guys!  Vivid Racing hooked her up with a new Agency Power Blow Off Valve and set her right.  Oh and I probably forgot to mention the rare 1off Vorsteiner front hood.  Enjoy!

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+

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. 

We are very proud to serve and be a part of the strong Audi and Volkswagen community.  Please visit our Audi Performance Parts Store or our Volkswagen Performance Parts Store.

Rieger’s new Audi S5 aero kit package has simply dropped my jaw.  Having seen the stock version in person, I could only imagine how next level it would be to roll around in this car.  Rieger usually has a tad bit more aggressive styling then say Oettinger, however you can love them or hate them.  Their aero kit from the A3 sold me on buying that car and I have to say even the sedan BMW 335I aero kit will make one rethink their priorities!
