Taking advantage of the new turbo.
The newest Audi S5 is something that a lot of enthusiasts will enjoy. The supercharged engine that powered the previous-generation model has been swapped out for a turbocharged engine that packs even more tuning potential. Although it’s just hitting showroom floors, the team at Speed-Buster have whipped up a new Chiptuning-Box that unleashes some fun.
For the newest Audi S5, the 3.0-liter supercharged V-6 was swapped out for a 3.0-liter turbocharged V-6 that produces 354 horsepower and 369 lb-ft. of torque right from the factory. That’s a bit more than its supercharged predecessor, along with a bit more potential.
Speed-Buster developed a new auxiliary plug-and-play Chiptuning-Box for the new Audi S5 that utilizes the latest microprocessor technology to increase power. The box processes data gathered by sensors, alters it in real-time, then sends it to the factory ECU to be used. Not only does the Chiptuning-Box increase power but it also reduces fuel consumption.
After the Speed-Buster Chiptuning-Box was installed, power rises by 66 horsepower and 70 lb-ft. of torque, all the way up to 420 horsepower and 439 lb-ft. of torque. That’s getting into RS territory with a basic plug-and-play unit.
The new Speed-Buster Chiptuning-Box costs just 699 euros and comes with a bespoke wiring harness with OE connectors. It’s also backed by a two-year engine warranty.
