how do you get a v10 and fuel tank in the engine bay... is the engine far back??

looks great, are those front tyres thinner than usual and the side bins look different too... any details would be great.

id be very interested in hearing and seeing some more


at present im in two minds to sell mine and build a new one with a A6 engine with big turbos, but with my income worried it would never be finished.

Ive even looked at selling my engine or converting to turbo as I need/want more power.

the v10 engine isn't expensive to buy secondhand , but its the gearbox adaptor and ecu and electrics im not 100% sure about.

wht was your reasoning to go german?

Of course you can use a V8 or v10 twin turbo, but I think you will be all over the place. that's why I build a NA. It is a audi V10. For the record: a lambo Gallardo V10 is completely different, nothing will fit!

By my knowledge there are 2 dutch audi V10 engines with the inlets in one piece from www.vankronenburg.nl. Completely rebuild, with nikasil,finetuned etc. +/- 600hp/600Nm.
1. My black GTR, that is gone be dark green.
2. The engine vankronenburg uses for shows. (for sale)
Maybe they sold a set in the meanwhile. Also they made the plate to the Porsche gearbox, etc. you can order the parts there.

There are also 2 dutch orange canam ultima's.
1. the orange canam V10 NA on the film, but that crashed I heard. that engine was almost standard, used thinner exhaust pipes, the manifold was selfmade. +/-500 hp, standard 420hp so not bad.
2 the orange canam with a RS6 V8, also +/- 500 hp, that's for sale.

I think everybody builds to his budget and liking.
As long as you are happy doing it.
Personally I raced for 15 years with fine results,
but in the end I am more a builder than a driver.

I think a almost new bare engine will cost 7k?

So ? more than 15 less than 25 ?

10 injectors
10 nikosal
10 inlethousings
10 ...
10 ...

I went 4 evenings over there to put the camshaft in an different angle to get max output.
They did it on the day time 4 times. And of course measuring again optimizing.....etc.

iv been looking at RS4s and 6s a bit of recent times.
S6 had a NA v10.
RS6 had twin turbo v10, latter variants have V8TT
B7 RS4 had FSI V8

there is a few supercharger kits for the RS4 that will up the power a bit as well. might end up lighter than the V10
