Matt Farah from The Smoking Tire takes VF Engineering's Supercharged 800 HP Audi R8 on a canyon run. Matt gives an in-depth review of the feeling of adding 200 extra horsepower to all four wheels.

This 2017 Audi R8 (non-Plus) began life as a 540HP naturally-aspirated V10 car, already a potent car out of the box, but neutered by Audi from the factory. It then features VF Engineering's 'VF800' bolt-on supercharger system, which adds an intercooled TVS2300 roots-style blower which bumps the power up to 800 crank horsepower on 91 octane fuel. What we love about VF's kits is that they are designed for stock vehicles, and they are seamlessly integrated into the driving experience. Everything about the car remains exactly the same, except for the extra 200 horsepower at the wheels.
"I love it because it fundamentally feels exactly like a stock car, just with that horsepower and torque curve moved up" - Matt Farah
