[V8] Evo V8's

[Bastian Preindl]

Hi,

the Öttinger Crankshaft together with custom pistons (required) produces 
280hp out of the PT. I can't tell if any other kind of modifications 
(head, injection, ECU,...) have also been made. Rumours say that there 
is a brochure around but I can't tell. I personally only know one single 
Öttinger V8 and I got all the specs I told you from the owner today morning.

Talking about ABT? I can try to ask on audiv8.com, I told you everything 
I'm aware of. Well, not completely true: I have a test of an ABT V8 
somewhere at home. I'll try to have a look asap.

You are talking about an 4.2 manual ECU with ABT modifications? The only 
possibility I see is to find somebody with such a chip and make a copy. 
Not easy. But I think that chips like Blue Diamond are not worse. 
Generally ABT make rather "soft" chips, compared to for example MTM (but 
MTM never chipped a V8, as far as I know). I think the major impact on 
the power is done via head modifications. That also reflects the opinion 
of the people at audiv8.com. I can get you in touch with one our engine 
"gurus" at audiv8.com if you are (and he is...) interested.
