ABT tunes the R8, gives it 75 more horses
Harshpaul | Aug 29 2009

The beast that R8 is, it just got more sinister with the package from ABT. The mighty V10 of the R8 has received another 75hp and the 5.2-l V10 now churns out 600 hp of brute force. Power gain has come from a bit of reprogramming of the ECU and an all new exhaust system. The ABT R8 goes from zero to 100 kmph in just 3.8 seconds, and is potent for a top speed of 322 kmph.

Other additions include a new bodykit that brings more carbon fiber for the car, new front spoilers, side sills, rear apron and a rear wing. The car moves on new 20-inch diamond-cut or high-gloss wheels and gets a new set of performance tires.
