Achieve maximum power from the R8 V10 without sacrificing driveability or reliability by optimizing the engine's air/fuel ratios, timing, and more. We set out to extract maximum possible gains out of the 2016-2018 Audi R8 V10 while keeping the operating parameters safely within the confines of reliability and longevity. Fabspeed Motorsport offers an alternative tuning method for vehicles equipped with ECU's that traditionally required bench flashing. No longer do you need to remove your ECU and mail it in for a bench flash. The Handheld device interfaces with the OBD-II port on your vehicle and your computer to complete the tuning process, which is as follows.

POWER GAINS

While a vehicle equipped with bolt-on upgrades will experience maximum gains as a result of the increased efficiency of the engine, great power gains can be made on a completely stock vehicle!

• R8 V10 PLUS: You can wake up your stock R8 V10 with this tune alone or pair it with our Valvetronic Exhaust System for maximum performance gains. In stock form, this tune adds an outstanding 46 whp and 41 ft/lbs of torque at 5650 RPM. When added to Fabspeed's Valvetronic Exhaust, this tune will push peak power gains to 503whp and 411 ft-lbs of torque!

• R8 V10 (NON-PLUS): We had a brand new R8 V10 (non-Plus) in house for dyno testing. we experienced max gains of 75 whp and 49 ft-lbs of torque at 8000RPM, and peak gains of 62whp and 29 ft-lbs of torque by adding our complete Performance Package with ECU Tune.

COMPATIBILITY

• This tune is for 2016-2018 Audi R8 V10 models only
