MTM has been adding horsepower to Audis for more than 20 years, and they have put that experience into developing a new twin-screw supercharger system that pairs up to the 4.2-liter V8 in the Audi R8. The addition of forced induction brings total output to 552 hp, coincidentally matching the output of the R8's cousin, the Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4. In addition to the supercharger kit, MTM also offers a complete line of products for the R8 including brake upgrades, 20" forged wheels, high-flow exhaust system, and a variety of exterior style upgrades.

A guy pulled up in an R8 to look at some of our Infinitis at my dealership. Car didnt look as impressive in person and the exhaust note sounds like an ls2 corvette.

I wasnt really impressed for the money.

I definitely agree on the exhaust. Does sound a lot like a C6 basemodel.

Good point, haha. Although the catbacks for this car are insanely expensive. I believe the Milltek catback is near $4400, and some are even more expensive than that.

But I assume if you can afford a car such as the R8, $4400 won't put you back that much, haha.

It's amusing how there are aftermarket parts available for high-end cars like that, especially since many people intend to keep them stock as a collectors item. I even noticed that Hennessey Performance has an exhaust for the Bugatti Veyron; I don't even want to think about the price on that piece of metal
