Quicksilver Releases New Audi R8 V10 Exhaust System

Dan — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 16:21:14 +0000

UK Based Quicksilver has released another amazing product for the new Audi R8 with the V10 engine. A supercar sound might be why R8 owners choose Quicksilver for their exhaust system, but they will also be very happy about the performance too. The exhaust saves over 40lbs off the rear end of the vehicle while adding horsepower and torque to the V10 monster.

The Quicksilver system has a titanium silencer and thin gauge stainless steel tubing to achieve a combination of the lightest possible weight with strength and durability. At lower engine speeds it produces a wonderful deep tone, with volume and pitch increasing in direct proportion to rpm climaxing in a robust race car howl at redline.

This exhaust is available from Vivid Racing and our Quicksilver Store. It retails for $2900 plus freight. Contact us if interested in getting the BEST for your Audi R8.

Despite the low exhibitor turnout, HRE Wheels had a great showing at the 2009 SEMA show in Las Vegas. With premier cars in their booth including the Porsche Panamera and new all carbon fiber Devon GTX ($500,000), HRE truly set the bar between what a real engineering wheel company is and simple draw and cut companies. In addition to the vehicles in their booth, cars were scattered all across the show rocking HRE Wheels. Throughout the show HRE had the 2010 Camaro with the P43’s was displayed in the Meguire’s booth. The flat black Lamborghini LP560 was featured in the Mobil 1 booth and was wearing a set of HRE CF43’s in flat black to match. You will also find the beautiful 2010 Mustang RTR C featuring a fully visible Carbon Fiber body as well as 20” HRE CF40’s in flat black. Another private label project is the HTT Plethore that made it’s US debut at SEMA in the DuPont booth with a pair of 19” and 20” P40’s. Also, the crazy blue Spectrewerkes GTR Corvette with a set of 19/20” CF40’s in flat black.

Not only are KW coilovers engineered on a 7 post lift designed for an F1 car, they also feature street comforts for daily drivers like the HLS system. The HLS (Hydraulic Lift System) is an add on component for the KW coilovers so you can raise and lower your car at the touch of a button. Great for city environments or those track guys with a very lowered car to get on and off the trailer. Check out the KW Suspension Coilover HLS Video Below. You can find all our KW Coilovers on our Performance Store Here.

Audi S5 Catback by STaSIS Plus More New Products

Cole Kelly — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 00:22:10 +0000

Audi’s new S5 car is a great mix of style and performance but still needs that improved exhaust tone and performance boost that STaSIS can provide. The Signature Series catback for the S5 adds around 10 to 15 HP and TQ across the powerband and improves the tone to a pronounced yet refined sound. And like all the STaSIS parts Vivid Racing sells, durability and design will fit well with your S5.

Also new to the Vivid Racing online catalog are the Nissan R35 GT-R Seibon carbon fiber parts and Vorsteiner aerodynamic pieces for the BMW 3 series including the M. The Seibon GT-R exterior and interior parts are designed to reduce the weight, increase the performance and of course, improve the overall appearance of one of the hottest cars of 2009 and 2010.

When you purchase a BMW, one of the last things that may cross your mind is what you can do to improve the style of an already great car. But after seeing the Vorsteiner parts that are available to you, your opinion will change. It is not easy to create great lines that perform well and compliment the OEM car, but that is exactly well you get with Vorsteiner.
