A German tuner  called WheelsAndMore realized that some of you really want a 500+ plus Audi R8 but cannot wait for the Audi R8 V10 to launch, So they’ve done the job! Despite the funny name, these guys are serious about tuning…

What they’ve done, in essence, is taking a standard R8 V8 engine and bolting a big supercharger to it. The result is a massive 530 hp which is even more than what the V10 engine will offer, not that much actually, only 5hp more!

Of course, this being WheelsAndMore,they couldn’t let you go without a nice set of their shiny rims, so there are good options on that matter.

Prices start at €1,700 for the ECU upgrade and €32,500 for the supercharger. If money is no option, however, WAM can also install an uprated brake package with eight-piston calipers up front and six-piston units in the back for the princely sum of €13,998. Other options include an exhaust kit with a remote-controlled valve to reduce noise levels for €4,800, an aluminum race-spec suspension kit for €3,999 as well as a new hydraulic lift system that can raise the car by 30mm for €8,949.
