Spa and Nürburgring - AUDI A5 3.0 TDI PROJECT
What an epic trip this turned out to be! The Nürburgring has to be on every petrol (and diesel) head's bucket list. It is like Mecca for car lovers, and every year over 2 million people visit here. Some come to watch the crashes at Brünnchen

CitiGo at the Ring
We have already discussed the preparation and journey of the CitiGo and A5, but figured it would be easier to separate the track time and videos for both cars, since we have so much footage!

BIG BRAKES AND ALIGNMENT - AUDI A5 3.0 TDI QUATTRO PROJECT
A track car isn't just about power... having the correct alignment settings and brakes can make just as much of a difference, if not more!
In this vlog we finish up the alignment after installing adjustable caster bushes and rear arms. The bigger and lighter front brakes will also help us fetch this heavy lump to a stop!
Genuine Porsche Macan brake ducts will also help cool the brakes when on track. We're trusting Porsche might know a thing or two about fast track cars.

OIL COOLERS & RADIATOR - AUDI A5 3.0 TDI QUATTRO PROJECT
Cooling is essential, especially on track!
In Part 15 of this series we fit our in house developed engine and gearbox oil coolers as well as a custom larger radiator in preparation for the Nurburgring!

NEW PROJECT CAR! - AUDI A5 3.0 TDI QUATTRO
This is our first vlog so be nice...
So as a tuning company that spends a lot of time and resources on Research and Development, there are situations where we need to purchase a perfectly good vehicle to then rip it to pieces. We were in that situation. The team were brainstorming ideas for the next vehicle, and came up with a few 'must haves':
3.0 TDI Common Rail Engine - We have already pushed the boundaries massively of the 2.0 Common Rail with our Arosa and CitiGo Pro
