Chip Tuning at its Finest: MTM unveils the 800hp Audi RS7 Sportback kit

MTM has revealed its second performance upgrade for the latest (C8) Audi RS7 Sportback. Even without a turbo kit, the tuner has convinced the engine to output 800 hp (596 kW) and 1,060 Nm (782 lb-ft) of torque.

The MTM Stage 2 includes updated ECU software, a performance air intake system, a sports-grade air filter, and a stainless-steel exhaust system. With everything installed, the liftback gains extra 210 hp (156 kW) along with 260 Nm (192 lb-ft) of torque. This enables it to sprint 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) in 2.9 seconds and hit 345 km/h (214.4 mph) in a straight line.

On the outside, a few inconspicuous decals, new 22-inch wheels and a moderate lowering are all that sets the tuned ride apart from its stock counterpart.

MTM hints that we may be getting a Stage 3 kit in the future, which will include modded turbochargers, among other things.
