Senner Tuning offers a power booster program for the prefacelift Audi A8.

The V8 4.2-liter FSI engine produces 372 PS (273 kW), at 6,800 rpm, and 445 Nm (3328 lb-ft), at 3,500 rpm. The engine can reach speeds of 0-60 mph (0-100 km/h), and top speeds of 155 mph (253 km/h), at 3,500 rpm. Senner Tuning engineers weren’t happy with the output numbers, so they increased the power to 397 PS (292kW) and 477Nm (352 lb.ft).

Senner claims that the Audi A8 4.2 V8 pre-facelift is more powerful, but it’s also more fuel efficient. The engine consumes 1.5-2 liters of fuel per 100 km. New sport air filters were installed along with a power converter. The stock exhaust was also replaced with a stainless-steel unit with chromed 100mm pipes. This will provide a “wonderful sounding V8.”

The 22-inch Oxigin14 Oxrock wheels are finished in a black polished finish. They are wrapped in Continental Sport Contact 3 tires, 265/30R22. The kit includes a KW lowering kit that allows owners to lower the air suspension using a Wi-Fi module. This allows them to adjust the suspension via an iOS app. The red brake calipers, as well as the LED number plate lighting round out the changes.

All the enumerated goodies cost EUR9,500 (VAT not included).
