C190 AMG GT S Coupe H&R Sport Springs
Suspension is one of the most important factors in determining your vehicle's day-to-day drivability. The first step in suspension tuning is to upgrade your vehicle's stock springs.

A lower wind resistance signature will make the vehicle more streamlined and improve gas mileage. H&R springs have superb ride comfort, create a sleek look to your new Mercedes AMG GT S Coupe, and add increased driving convenience.

Evolution Motorsports Porsche GT3 Upgrades
The new 991 GT3 is an amazing super car of its own right; however, it is lacking that rumble we have grown to expect from a Porsche super car. This is where EVOMS set out to create an exhaust system to change all of that. They chose to retain the use of an exhaust bypass valve controlled system and incorporated 70mm Pierburg bypass valves. When a more aggressive sport exhaust sound is desired, pressing the sport exhaust button on the center console opens the larger 70mm exhaust valves and allows the engine to "sing" with melodic exhaust notes one would expect to hear from a 9,000 RPM flat-6 Porsche GT3. Increased power, intoxicating sound, and substantial weight savings equals the perfect combination for ultimate performance without compromise.

MK7 Golf/GTI/R APR DQ250 DSG and S Tronic TCU Upgrade
The Audis aren't alone in receiving some transmission boosts from the experts at APR. APR's calibration experts found the factory drive and sport modes to be less than ideal when raising power above the factory limits. In drive mode, the transmission aggressively seeks sixth gear, earlier than necessary, leaving behind an anemic and lack luster experience for the driver. Likewise sport mode leaves a lot to be desired considering its seemingly exciting name. Under both modes, maximum shift points remain optimized for the factory power levels, which vary greatly to those produced using APR's world-renowned catalog of performance hardware and software.

MK7 Golf GTI/R Forge Motorsport Uprated Intercooler
This is our new intercooler for the Mk7 Golf GTI, MK7 R and S3 (8V chassis) fitted with the latest EA888 2.0 TSI engine. Volkswagen Audi group have changed just about everything from the Mk6 to the Mk7 chassis so this core has had to be designed from scratch in order to fit in with the redesigned radiator and condenser. The core will continue to deliver a much lower intake charge temperature than stock across all states of tune, as its based on our award winning Mk5/Mk6 intercooler, and Forge Motorsport is confident this intercooler will be at happily at home on everything from road and track cars, to full blown race and drag cars.

TSW Bathurst
New for 2015, the new Bathurst model from TSW is the latest in our line of wheels that employ exotic rotary forging manufacturing technology. Rotary forging produces wheels that are uncommonly lightweight. That's because the manufacturing process alters the molecular structure of the aluminum alloy in a way that increases its strength. That strength allows TSW engineers to reduce the thickness of the outer barrel, reducing rotational mass. Even the largest Bathurst size, 20x10.5, weighs less than 25 lbs.
