LA's Best A supercharger conversion based on the 4.2-liter V8 Two tons of unladen weight are not that easy to gloss over. With that much weight, every scrap of power and every Newton meter of torque counts. JE DESIGN turns the A8 into real high-flyer, with no less than 500 supercharged horses (368 kW) rearing and bucking under the hood. 600 Nm of torque, available at 3,850 rpm, propel this heavyweight from a standstill to 62 mph in just 5.2 seconds. And it does not stop till it reaches an impressive 188 mph. The supercharger conversion includes a water-cooled intercooler, an exhaust system from the manifold, special forged pistons and modified engine management. JE DESIGN also takes care to ensure that the A8 still complies with the emissions regulations. The conversion also includes TÜV certification.
The extra power simply cries out for an appropriate visual transformation. At the front JE DESIGN fits a "W12-style" front panel (matt black). The also available front spoiler from JE DESIGN has enlarged air intakes, plus additional lateral ventilation channels. The aerodynamic section delivers an impressive front end as well as more downforce, for improved driving stability. The pair of side sills with air intakes improve airflow into the wheel arches and lower the A8 visually. The rear-end view is enhanced by a rear spoiler on the trunk lid, exerting more downforce on the rear axle, and a rear skirt extension with diffuser. Twin headlight units (a set for left and right), including fog light and headlight, make the front view even more striking.
A four-pipe rear silencer equipped with 101 mm-diameter chrome tailpipes bears witness to the mega-power under the hood. That means that you should be able to make yourself heard in any case.
A set of 10 x 21 wheels - the two-piece rims are gray-painted on the inside - complete with 285/30 ZR 21 tires front and rear have to transmit the tremendous power onto the road. And the final touch is provided by an electronic lowering module, lowering the car by approx. 35 mm.
