Audi created the S8 so those who may found the normal A8 a bit too soft and slow can get something more suitable without knocking on AMG or BMW M’s door. But still, there are those who find even the S8 not quite exciting enough. These guys will have to visit MTM workshops for a cure.

What the German tuner has prepared for the mighty S8 is an engine tuning treatment that boosts its output from the standard 520 horsepower to 650 horsepower. The 4.0 liter bi-turbo V8 engine also generates 800 Nm of torque now, which is 150 more than the standard.

Audi S8 by MTM is now capable of going from 0 to 100 km/h in four seconds dead, while the top speed is limited to 293 km/h of 182 mph. Those are astonishing figures for a big luxury saloon like the S8.

The engine treatment itself comes at a reasonable, sort of, 4,925 EUR. If you opt for the MTM Bimoto wheels, that’ll be another 5,800 EUR. Tick a few more boxes and get the F-Cantronic air suspension (1,700 EUR), bespoke brake system (6,700 EUR), and steel exhaust system (4,500 EUR), and before you know it you have a 155,000 EUR Audi in front of you.
