German tuning firm Mcchip has unveiled two new performance options for Audi's recently launched TT-RS.

The €899 Stage 1 package consists of a retuned ECU module which boosts the turbocharged 2.5-liter engine's output from 340 hp and 450 Nm of torque to 380 hp and 550 Nm of torque. Although full performance data wasn't released, Mcchip did state that the car's top speed has been increased to 300 km/h (186 mph).

In a few weeks, the company will introduce a Stage 2 package which boasts more than 400 hp. While official performance numbers are still pending, the company strongly suggests that only experienced drivers opt for the package.

On the styling front, the Mcchip Audi TT-RS wears €6600 Cargraphic GTR 9x20 wheels wrapped in high performance 255/30 R20 Continental rubber.

well for starters its a TT, so i cant say much about it other then its not for me, but! the first package upgrade for ?777 (€899) is quite cheap. waiting to see what the stage 2 package does and how much it would cost a TT owner.

Isn't the TT-RS a 4WD? How come the dyno video shows only the front wheels spinning?

They temporarily disabled the Haldex to only send power to the front wheels

Does it no good. it wouldve been better and more appropriate to put the car on a 4wheel dyno see what number it puts down there after drivetrain losses.
