Ferrari 355 Berlinetta Running Like New

Publishsed by Cole Kelly on October 21st, 2009 | Posted in Tuning & Tech | No Comments »

As mentioned in a previous blog by us, Vivid Racing received a Ferrari 355 Berlinetta to perform a required 2 year maintenance. After replacing the cam belts, timing belts, head gaskets and a water pump, Vivid Racing added a performance exhaust by Tubi. The Tubi exhaust allows better flow and reduced restriction that in turn, gives this 355 a wicked growl and performance. The last step of this 355 is a K40 Radar detector to help keep the owner ticket free.

You can check out all of Vivid Racings performance parts and gadgets for your Ferrari here.

Project CLS55 Rocks the Dyno

Publishsed by Cole Kelly on October 14th, 2009 | Posted in Project Cars | No Comments »

Vivid Racing took delivery of its newest project car a few weeks back. With the intention of keeping this a mild build, an exhaust, HRE wheels and the existing Renntech Stage 5 kit is pretty much all that is in store… for now.

The exhaust selected is the Meisterschaft GT Racing. With more performance and a nice throaty sound, the Mesisterschaft keeps with the Mercedes look with polished stainless tips.

The existing Renntech Stage 5 kit included an ECU tune, headers, pulley, 78mm throttle body and a carbon fiber airbox. With this kit and the new exhaust, Vivid Racing was anxious to dyno the luxury neck breaker. The final number put down on our dyno is an amazing 446 horsepower and 491 ft. lbs of torque. All this while riding in comfort.

For those ready to sport a new performance level in your own CLS, check out our online catalog here – http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/index.php?class_9=5387&my_type_id=8&class_8=37




A Subaru We Can All Appreciate

Publishsed by Cole Kelly on October 7th, 2009 | Posted in Client Cars | No Comments »

A recent send in has us nodding with approval. This orange Subaru STi has a massive list of performance parts from manufactures such as Megan Racing, HKS, Invidia, Walbro, TurboXS and more.

The first thing you notice is the tasteful set of wheels from Rota tucked nicely with Tein springs. The 18″ Grid wheels with an orange stripe tie the wheels to the car. Under the hood you will find Megan Racing’s down pipe and HKS up pipe. The exhaust is finished off with Invidia’s N1 Catless exhaust. Now typically, these exhaust mods would go to waste, but Christian has added a top mount intercooler, Walbro 255 fuel pump and finished off with a Stage 2 Protune at 18PSI.

All these parts and more can be found right here at Vivid Racing.

Have a new Challenger or Camaro? Check These Out

Publishsed by Cole Kelly on October 2nd, 2009 | Posted in Product Info | No Comments »

Some of the newest cars to be released come from good old american muscle backgrounds. The revisited and revised Challenger from Dodge and the instant classic Chevrolet Camaro. More and more owners of these amazing cars are looking to improve and personalize theirs. Vivid Racing is actively updating our catalog to fit the needs of everyone and some of the products to hit the market are ready to be bolted on your retro car.

Meisterschaft maybe linked to European and import cars more than the American lines, but the SUS Roar Racing Series exhaust for the Challenger may change all of that. Featuring a stainless steal construction and quad tips, the Meistershcaft system will improve the performance, style and sound of your Dodge.

Throw on a ProCharger High Output Intercooled Supercharger and your Challenger may be the meanest car on the street or strip. ProCharger has seen increases of over 150hp with its 6psi system on an otherwise stock car. It may be the best solution for the horsepower hungry driver.

And for those with a new Camaro, Borla’s Touring catback system could be just what your car needs. The Touring system comes with mufflers and 4.5″ tips as well as an exhaust equalizing and performance increasing X-pipe to maximize the Camaro’s exhaust flow. And much like the Challenger, with your improved exhaust flow, a ProCharger supercharger will net you another 150+ horsepower.

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.
