Heavily Tuned Audi R8 V10 from mcchip-dkr is a Jaw-Dropping Street-Legal Racer ... - autoevolution
What is tuning, what is right, what is wrong, and the list goes on. These are just the main questions one has to ask himself when they see something as carefully modified as this older Audi R8 V10, brought to life by the mcchip-dkr GmbH outfit... Let's face it – the old-gen Audi R8 in V10 form was a Lamborghini Gallardo with some comfort built into it, nothing less and nothing more. Starting with the LMX-branded R8 V10 and finishing with the second-generation Audi R8 V10 plus, Ingolstadt's sportiest machine is now a thoroughly desirable must-have. Cue mcchip-dkr and the monster you can admire in the adjacent video and mega photo gallery. Baptised Projekt Potter & Rich Recon MC8 V10 FSI Supercharged , the name may be a mouthful, but the attention to detail and performance are out of this world. Speaking of the engine, everything from the cams to the rods and pistons has been modified to the measure of a supercharging system bolted on top of the 5. 2-liter ten-cylinder sledgehammer. Almost nothing of the original shell was kept, hence the overall look of the mcchip-dkr body kit harks back to the Audi R8 LMS pirvateer racecar, a contraption raced in GT3 and GT Daytona classes from 2009 to the present day.
