The Swiss from Sportec have released their latest tuning kit that will enable the current Audi RS3 to deliver a mighty punch.
The RS3 is an ‘angry’ hatch even as standard, due to the 340 HP packed by its 2.5-liter 5-cylinder plant, but the tuners from Sportec have managed to increase that figure to 408 HP and 550 Nm of torque by remapping the engine control unit and fitting the car with a stainless steel sport exhaust system.
Sportec claims that the export version Audi RS3 can be tuned even further and achieve no less than 500 HP, and we don’t know about you but we find that pretty darn impressive.
The power increase featured by the Sportec Audi RS3 is safely accommodated by the car’s adaptive dampening system which enables a lower center of gravity by 20 to 40 mm. The RS3 has also been equipped with 20 inch Mono/10 design alloy wheels, plus it received widened wheel arches, modified bumpers and upgraded brakes.
