Nothelle builds a 520HP Audi TT
December 31st, 1969
Audi tuning specialist Nothelle, a performance house with a forty-year history of vehicle customization, has released a new package for the Audi TT. Nothelle’s new kit is designed for either the Coupé or Roadster, and includes enhancements for both the 2.0L TFSI or 3.2L V6 variants.
The flagship model is a twin-turbocharged version of the V6 quattro that delivers up to 520hp and 635Nm of torque. The package includes a reinforced clutch and a specially adapted gear transmission ratio for manual models and when equipped with the DSG gearbox the tuned TT reaches a top speed of 308km/h.
Power for the 2.0L TFSI is also improved, with four different output stages available ranging from simple ECU upgrades that yield 40hp increases, up to a complete rebuild that delivers 330hp and 400Nm of torque.
Engineers also added a high-flow exhaust system, a sports suspension system (25mm lowering), and 19 or 20in lightweight aluminum-alloy wheels. To complete the package, Nothelle adds a complete bodykit with a three-piece front spoiler, side-skirts and a three-part rear spoiler for added downforce. Follow the jump for our complete gallery.

There is some BS: the DSG cannot handle the huge torque of the 520 HP engine.
No fan of the Audi TT, but this looks better.

"The package includes a reinforced clutch" doesent this mean a/two new clutch/es to handle more torque?
By biturbo #3, Posted: 6/28/2007
Bengt, this tuner cannot do such thing as improving the dual-clutch for that kind of torque.
Not even the big car manufacturers managed to do that yet. VW and Porsche are working hard on it.
There are only 2 dual-clutch (DSG like) transmissions in the world that can handle huge torque: in the Bugatti Veyron and in the Koenigsegg CCX. Why? Because is very expensive to do the research and testing.

okey, didn't think of that. but are you sure they have a dual clutch transmission in the konigsegg? i thought they had a manual stick

DSG can hande 600HP+ you just need to reprogram the TMC
