Hear the New Remus Volkswagen GTI MK7 Exhaust

Remus has been known as one of the best exhaust manufactures for Volkswagen and Audi tuner cars.  They have also made a name for themselves in Porsche exhausts and even BMW exhaust systems.  Made in Austria, their OEM look systems provide an easy to the ear sound with power to back it up.  No gimmics, just good ole engineering.  For the MK7 Volkswagen GTI, Milltek sells a different rear valance so you can have the dual outlet system similar to that of the earlier MK5 and MK6.  Like most of their exhaust systems, you can have it your way with the exhaust tips.  Full stainless steel, carbon fiber, titanium, and chrome.  As dyno tested, the exhaust made a peak horsepower gain of 8.6hp and just over 10nm of torque.  However the exhaust made tremendous horsepower and torque from 3500rpm to 4500rpm.  It produced over 40nm of torque and almost 30 horsepower at this point.  Check out the pics and video below.  You like what you see?  Shop all Remus Exhausts Here.

Porsche Panamera S 3.0L Turbo Tuning Box Dyno Test

If you are looking to get more power and performance out of the Porsche Panamera S 3.0L Turbo, this new Tuning Box is the answer!  These new tuning box kits feature the required plug and play pressure sensors needed to boost the performance up.  Tuning Boxes are a great way to gain massive amounts of horsepower and torque, while also improving fuel economy under partial throttle.  Unlike a ECU flash that can potentially void your warranty, the Tuning Box kits plug into sensors while the boxes microprocessor tuned map takes over. The installation is pretty easy on most vehicles including the Panamera S as seen here.

As tested on a 2016 Panamera S 3.0L Turbo on our in-house Mustang AWD Dyno, our vehicle made very strong gains throughout the entire RPM range.  We did both our baseline and tuned tests in Standard Mode with 91 octane, running the tests back to back.  At peak torque around 4000rpm, the Panamera S made nearly 60 ft/lbs of torque and maintained this gain +/- 10 ft/lbs of torque towards the top end of the rpm range.  Peak horsepower was seen around 3800 rpm which was nearly 50 awhp.  Towards the top end rpm range at 5500 we still saw a gain of nearly 40 awhp.  The Mustang Dyno gives very real world wheel horsepower numbers that typically show a 20-25% drivetrain loss compared to stock bhp horsepower ratings.  Overall this tuning box delivered EXACTLY what it should have!

Official Product Information

The VF800 system is a genuine bolt-on supercharger kit containing everything necessary to produce sizable gains to both the HP and torque of the Huracan’s V10 engine. Available for 2014+ models worldwide, this system uses the latest generation Eaton TVS2300 3-lobe “Twin Vortices Series” roots supercharger with an air/water after cooling system. Using state of the art technology and production techniques, VF-Engineering has created a system that effectively integrates with the High Output 5.2-liter powerplant to produce proven OEM quality results.

Packing a lag-free instant punch of torque from 2300 rpm, the air charge progressively climbs to redline for an exhilarating increase in forward thrust. The supercharger creates a predictable, linear powerband making it a competitor with the V12 Aventador.

Designed as a reversible upgrade, this system is designed as a daily driver or competitive hypercar. Engine calibration is performed via electronic flashing of the factory’s dual Bosch ECUs with optimized code engineered, 4WD dyno, and road tested by VF/Hex Tuning.
