Hello carmrades!

A couple of days ago Russian car tuning company Total Race uploaded a video on their instagram profile.

That video was quickly downloaded and shared on lots of social media channels. Therefore generating lots of hype, especially the sick turbo setup made people go crazy.

But actually...

The RS7 that blew up your social feed last week

the video that was uploaded is over 2 years old by now. But some of the mechanics and total race instagram page managers decided to upload it just for fun. And this is obviously when everything exploded, including my inbox with people who wanted to know more about the car since I am Russian.

Over 1000 horses of AWD madness

Okay, to be precise the actual figures are 942 hp AT THE WHEELS. This makes 1086 hp on the crank if you take almost 20% drivetrain power loss. Visual aid for proof:

Those are Veyron numbers. So are the other very important 0-60mph/0-100 km/h numbers: 2.5 seconds.

Obviously to achieve such numbers, you have to do more than just a ECU remap and aftermarket exhaust installation. Pretty much everything has been changed, full engine internals and cooling system upgrade, gearbox reinforcement (and cooling), the engine management and obviously the huge turbo chargers you have seen on the instagram video.

Quartermile time? 10.1 sec.

For a complete test-drive and video on the car please check out the video by my friends at Dragtimes.info in the header and here is it one more time for you, so you don’t need to scroll back all the way. The video has English subtitles, the part about the tuned RS7 starts from +-2 min.

P.S. Did you know that Total Race also built this 2200+ WHP Saleen S7 Twin Turbo and both cars belong tot the same owner?

Does the owner of this rather Special Saleen S7 Twin Turbo and Audi RS7 have a website or social media cause I really want to check out these cars more, and I suspect he has a few other rather special cars as well

Unfortunately the owner is pretty low-profile on social.

it’s a total upgrade from the engine and transmission. but what about the suspensions, brakes and the body reinforcement itself ?? sorry if I’m wrong, but i think with that amount of horsepowers and the top speed, it will become unstable

The brakes are original Carbon Cerami5n from Audi. No cage, daily :p Suspension is modified I believe, and other wheels.

В видео говорится что машина до 1000 кабыл на стоковых внутреннистях едит, а в описании ты пишешь что весь мотор перебрали? Или это уже после данного видео было сделано
