German tuner MTM has increased the performance of their TT-RS package. The TT-RS with 472bhp was GPS measured to be 312km/h at test runs on the Nardo highspeed track in Italy at the beginning of September 2010. TO achieve these figures they modificatied the control unit, installed a MTM turbo charger and a complete new MTM exhaust system from turbo.
The result: 472bhp (347kW) with 7.000rpm/min, a 0-100km/h (62mph) time of just 3.9 seconds and a top speed of 312km/h – driven in Nardo with Dunlop Sport Maxx tyres on 20-inch bimoto wheels.
The costs for the upgrade from 380 to 472bhp are about € 14.500 including tax and installation. The price for 20 inch bimoto forged rims, 15 inch brakes with eight-piston calipers (front axle) is € 9,973 including tax and installation. Right now MTM is working on an over 500bhp version.
That’s a small but fast rocket!
Why the headline says 310km/h and the text 312km/h?
Just because the headline says “faster THAN 310km/h” and the text says the exact Vmax.
Yeah, think a little faster than 312km,exact top speed 312…Think before you wright.
Wow, now that’s tricky.
And Alex shut it, you smartass.
alex and swank, you guys cant for once just read the article and enjoy it?
you just have to pull something outa everything to make a fuss over? gosh
Impressive performance jump from 380 to 472!
380 to 472 is impressive?
Remember the RS6 you’ve tested, that increased from 580 to 730 bhp.
Or Techart Porsches with 800bhp.
That’s impressive!
Yeah, I get your point but the RS6 has a 5.2 liter V10 and the TT-RS only a 2.5 liter 5-cylinder. Of course the total output of the before mentioned cars is much more impressive. But for a small engined and light car like the TT-RS nearly 500hp is very good!
Let’s wait for the 500bhp+ version.
Will do 330km/h I bet.
It must be a pretty wild thing beeing on a TT with 312.
