    AMG powered SLC Build

    My cost on ECU, wiring harness, and Engine Dyno time - 15K. Using F90 ECU. Biggest obstacle for my project was the direct injection. Without that it should be a lot easier. Not sure if any cheaper.

    Got a chance to see Hyder's SLC and his other little project

    I was originally looking at the Merc E55 powerplant.... Ran into a great deal on the R8 V8 complete with the trans and shifter. I jumped on it. However, I did underestimate the complexity of running an Audi Direct Injection engine on a standalone unit! Finally found a solution - an expensive...

    Gated shifter plate

    Yes, I WAS going to use the R8 gated shifter on mine. Might have to reconsider after your input there John.... Maybe should get in one (R8) and try it out first.

    AMG powered SLC Build

    I mean aftermarket. Factory is VERY tight about any support for other than intended purposes!! As for US market... We have NO support for GDI for more than 6 cylinder engines. Europe has a good start on this. I'm using a Life Racing Ltd | Motorsport Electronics unit from UK. There are a...

    AMG powered SLC Build

    I'm using an R8 V8 in my SLC build. As Fran stated Standalone support is little to NONE. Especially for the GID - Direct Injection on the R8 package. I'm stubborn enough to follow it through so far but its really been more difficult than its worth I think. Probably another year or two and...

    Graziano gearbox for sale

    This is a used 6speed manual gearbox from an Audi R8. I purchased it to use in my SLC but ended up with a complete R8 engine/gearbox assembly for it. Was going to hang on to it as a spare but dont think I'll be needing it. These are VERY strong gearboxes. This is in excellent condition...
