How much power does the Competition Package for D5 A8 add?

VF Engineering quotes 420 hp and 500 lb-ft from its Competition Package for D5 Audi A8 models with the 3.0 liter V6, gains of 85 hp and 131 lb-ft over the factory 335 hp and 369 lb-ft. Boost, ignition and fueling are revised on the factory turbocharger.

Does it fit the A8 L?

VF Engineering lists the calibration for the D5 A8 with the 3.0 liter V6 from 2019, and the A8 L shares that engine. Give Bulletproof Automotive the exact model and year when ordering so VF can confirm the file before the installation is booked.

Is it suitable for a car used every day?

VF Engineering describes the Competition Package as a calibration written for track use. The A8 keeps its factory hardware and comfort systems, but owners who want a calibration aimed at daily driving should ask Bulletproof Automotive about the VF options for the car before ordering.

How is the Competition Package installed?

VF Engineering installs the calibration at its Southern California facility or through an authorized VF dealer. Bulletproof Automotive coordinates the appointment with VF after the order is placed, and nothing is added to the car or changed in its appearance.

No. The S8 uses a 4.0 liter twin turbo V8 with its own control unit calibration. VF Engineering writes a separate Competition Package for the S8, rated by VF at 600 hp and 665 lb-ft and sold as its own listing at Bulletproof Automotive.

Description

VF Engineering Competition Package for D5 Audi A8

VF Engineering’s Competition Package for D5 Audi A8 is the VF calibration for the 3.0-liter turbocharged V6 that powers the A8 from 2019, and it is the only VF engine file for the V6 car that Bulletproof Automotive sells. Audi’s factory figures are 335 hp and 369 lb-ft. VF quotes 420 hp and 500 lb-ft with the Competition calibration, gains of 85 hp and 131 lb-ft, a far larger relative step than VF quotes for the V8 S8. In a large luxury sedan, the torque gain is what an owner notices, as the car gathers speed without the gearbox reaching for a lower ratio. VF writes the file for track use, so it suits an A8 owner who wants the most VF offers from the six.

About VF Engineering

VF Engineering designs supercharger and turbocharger systems, titanium exhausts and ECU and TCU calibrations from a 15,000 sq ft facility in Anaheim, Orange County, California, where it has been based for nearly two decades. Every calibration is developed in house on the company’s own Mustang AWD 500 chassis dyno, ECU boards are handled in a dedicated clean room, and new parts start in an R&D room equipped with a rapid prototyper. VF reports that more than 93 percent of its supercharger systems are still running after years of hard use, many on their second or third owner, and its engineers carry the testing discipline of the Lamborghini Super Trofeo series into every road calibration.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
