B&B Automobiltechnik has introduced a new tuning program for the Audi A7. In terms of styling, the hatchback can be outfitted with front fender vents, a lowered suspension (which reduces the ride height by approximately 30mm) and 19- to 21-inch alloy wheels. Under the hood, the 3.0-liter V6 TFSI engine can be tuned to produce 385 PS (283 kW / 380 hp) and 490 Nm (361 lb-ft) of torque - an increase of 85 PS (62 kW / 84 hp) and 50 Nm (37 lb-ft). There's also a stage two package - which adds a high-flow air filter and an optimized intercooler - that enables the engine to churn out 408 PS (300 kW / 402 hp) and 520 Nm (383 lb-ft) of torque. Lastly, the stage three package includes the aforementioned equipment as well as a sports exhaust system for 425 PS (313 kW / 419 hp) and 540 Nm (398 lb-ft) of torque. The 3.0-liter TDI, on the other hand, can be upgraded to produce up to 325 PS (239 kW / 321 hp) and 640 Nm (472 lb-ft) of torque.
