Soon there will
be the first Supercharged RS4 hitting America’s Highways. The car
belongs to Adam Levinson of N.Y. who just won this year’s Bull Run
Rally USA with his unmodified R8. The Bull Run is a special event
running this year from Calgary Canada to Arizona. The event took place
from June 20th – June 27th and goes for about
3500 miles. Last year he finished 3rd in his unmodified RS4
in the event from Montreal to Key West. At JHM we are happy to work
with Adam – a gentleman and a great competitor. We also once more like
to congratulate him for this year’s victory.
No doubt there
will be more exotic, powerful super cars participating in next year’s
Bull Run Rally. To be prepared and see Adam in the Winner Circle again
at next year’s event, Adam will compete in his MTM/JHM updated RS4.
Adam’s RS4 is on his way from N.Y. to JHM in Sarasota Florida, so are
all the performance parts from MTM in Germany.
In addition to
a complete service maintenance update the RS4 will see the following
MTM Engineered components, modifications and updates:
1.) Install
water-cooled Supercharger Kit – 540HP and modify software.
2.)
Install Single
Mass Flywheel, stronger High Performance Clutch
Pressure Plate, Clutch Disk, and special Release Bearings.
3.)
Install MTM
Exhaust System RS4 – 4.2ltr including Middle Silencer, Left & Right
Rear Silencer 80mm Pipes with vacuum controlled Throttle Valves both
sides.
4.)
Install Sport
Downpipes with Sport CAT left & right.
5.)
Modify rear
Exhaust to accept Oval End Pipes.
6.) Install
Sport Suspension to achieve firm but comfortable ride. The height
adjustment can be done in installed position with this system.
7.) Install
Exentric Arm Bushings to achieve 2° negative camber and assure more
precise cornering speed.
8.) Install
Front Hood Scoop to provide room for Supercharger and release hot
engine temp.
9.) Install
4 MTM Bimoto Rims and balance wheels with Michelin Tires.
10.) Install
larger Sport Brakes 380 x 34 for better performance and cooling.
We
look forward to preparing and driving America’s first Supercharged
RS4. It is also great to work with fine professional people like Adam
Levinson and Ruth Wenger. We at JHM will do all we can to support
Adam’s effort to be in the Winner Circle once again at the next event.
We also will report on Adam’s driving impression of his newly prepared
Super Car as soon as Adam completes his test and evaluation of the
powerful RS4 Super Car.
