Oettinger unleashes 382kW Audi RS3 super hatch

As if the Audi RS3’s 270kW and 465Nm wasn’t punchy enough, Oettinger has turned the whip up on the hot hatch even further.

The German tuner’s latest project sees the 2.5-litre turbocharged five-cylinder engine in the Audi RS3 serving up a fire-breathing 382kW (520hp) of power and 680Nm of torque, putting five-door hatchback in the realm of supercar performance. And it’s got the figures to prove – 0 to 100km/h in just 3.3 seconds, en route to a top speed of 310km/h with the speed limiter removed.

The boost in performance comes from an upgraded turbocharger, a customised air intake system complete with a new high flow air filter, downpipe with HJS Motorsports catalytic converter, and new Oettinger engine mapping. The RS3 retains its 7-speed dual clutch S Tronic transmission and quattro all-wheel-drive system.

Visually, the Oettinger Audi RS3 looks almost normal, except for new wheels and the lower ride height courtesy of a set of KW coilover sports suspension.

Along with the specs, the tuner has also gladly provided us with video footages of their pumped-up RS3 in action, further eliminating any doubts of its ballistic performance.

The cost of all these mods is a hefty €10,390.
