Pump it up!
We consider the chance that you are in need of power in the 400 hp Audi RS3 just as great as that you are cheering at the fuel prices at the pump. Nevertheless, the German tuner Abt could not resist pumping up the five-cylinder of the Audi RS3.
Just like their predecessors, the Audi RS3 Sportback and Limousine have a powerful five-cylinder. That blown 2.5 stamps out 400 hp and 500 Nm, enough to help the two from standstill to a speed of 100 km/h in 3.8 seconds. Is 400 hp too little for you, but you don’t want to turn to Mercedes-AMG for the 421 hp strong A45 S? No worries. The German tuner Abt is increasing the power of the RS3 by 15 percent.
Abt adapts the engine management system of the Audi RS3, with the result that the muscle bundle has 460 hp and 540 Nm. With its new muscle power, the RS3 reaches a speed of 100 km/h in 4.6 seconds. 0.2 counts faster than the original. Abt is also not a fan of the speed limiter that normally regulates the top speed of the RS3 at 250 km/h. You can already raise the speed limit at Audi to 280 km/h and even 290 km/h, but this version of Abt is capable of tapping 300 km/h.
