Deflection is the enemy of power transfer. When you lose power to soft rubber mounts, that power is gone forever. 034Motorsport has developed some nearly indestructible alternatives for your engine and transmission mounts that reduce or eliminate that deflection and are designed to support high horsepower builds without losing power to unnecessary deflection.

Maximizing the performance in your Audi or VW doesn't just mean throwing power at the engine. It means making complimentary upgrades to every corner of the car in order to keep everything performing at its peak. With suspension tuning, that means adding adjustment capabilities and reducing deflection. With the new 034Motorsport Billet Adjustable Motorsport Line Rear Toe Links, you have the ability to ensure your suspension is working as effectively as possible, even at an extremely lowered ride height.

When chasing more power, you eventually run into the ceiling set in place by the equipment in your car. With forced-induction engines, that eventually means a more capable turbocharger is needed to break through to that next goal. Brand new from CTS Turbo, their K04 Turbo Upgrade for your B7 or B8 2.0T is just what you need to push more power and raise the ceiling to reach higher numbers than ever before.

Brand new from Eventuri, their Stage 3 Carbon Fiber Intake System for your Audi 8V RS3 is designed for maximum flow and minimal restriction to support even the wildest 1000hp builds around. With a striking visual element and incredible function, this intake system is simply the most capable and most beautiful option around for your high-performance Audi.

With Forge Motorsport's new VW Overland Offroad Accessories, you can lift your VW up to go anywhere and everywhere with even more confidence. They're easy to install lift spacer kits give you more clearance and a beefier look for your VW to fit even chunkier wheels and tires. Make your VW all that it can be to go where it wants with the Forge Motorsport Overland Kits!

Engine bays today are less than attractive. Everything is jam-packed in the space and your eye has no ability to decide what is most important to be your focus. With the new ECS B9 S4/S5 Vacuum-Formed ECU Cover, you can eliminate some of that distraction and hide the ECU with a sleek and stylish heat-resistant piece that installs in minutes to help make your engine easily the main showpiece when you open the hood.

This power plant is exceptional at making huge numbers, mated to a chassis that can put it to the ground efficiently. One thing that is severely lacking from this package is a complement of engine mounts that are up to the task of handling that increased power without sacrificing and wasting that precious torque.

Last year, we sent VW Brand Ambassador Jamie Orr on a trip all across the country in a pre-production MK5 Sportwagen we affectionately called the Rallywagen where it ended in the Arctic Circle. This year we picked up a VW MK7 GTI and decided to build it here at ECS to debut at SEMA and then head South to drive all the way to the tip of South America on some of the most demanding roads. Rallywagen 2.0 was fully constructed in-house by our team of engineers.

If you have a B9, we'd bet you have some dirt, grime, water, salt, or whatever else you drove through all collected in your engine bay thanks to the less-than-perfect three-piece plug that covers a hole in the metal. The results are at best a mess in your engine bay and at worst, the precursor to a rust problem. With the Engine Bay Block Off Plugs we designed here in-house, you can prevent this headache before it starts and add a sleek and attractive component to your engine bay at the same time.

Raise the level of style on your pre-facelift B8 S4 or A4 S-Line with the ECS Tuning Carbon Fiber Grille Accent Set. This quality addition was engineered and designed in-house to fit directly to your factory front bumper cover, with no modifications required.

An exclusive design only available through ECS Tuning, this grille accent set will be sure to catch attention and turn heads.

Change the profile of your Audi B8 S4 with the brand new ECS Rear Window Spoiler.

Ever tried removing a radio trim bezel with a screwdriver or metal putty knife? Ugly. Ineffective.

Forced induction engines are fantastic tuner platforms because they offer easily accessible power with minor bolt-on upgrades, tunes, and lower restriction. Eventually, though, you reach that ceiling where the capabilities are limited to more critical hardware, like the size and ability of the turbocharger. For you Transverse 2.0T Audi and VW owners, that turbo stands in the way of serious power potential. Thankfully, CTS is here with their brand new K04 Turbo Upgrade to help you reach that next level of performance.

If you're ready for more power in your supercharged 3.0T, then you'll probably want to start with an upgraded pulley.

That's why we've designed a Supercharger Pulley Removal Tool Kit to help you make the upgrade in your garage at home safely and easily.
