SHEEPEY RACE IS FIDDLING WITH AN AUDI RS6 - WE LIKE.

Sheepey Race calls itself a company run by enthusiasts for enthusiasts, and if you see any of the YouTube content related to the crew, that’s a rather fitting description. Here in SA Sheepey Race is a brand that’s known, but only because some people with ridiculous amounts of disposable income have imported parts from the Florida-based performance company. If you’ve watched the company’s progression on YouTube you’ll see that things sorta started out with Audi tuning before progressing to the supercars, as is the norm in YouTube land. On the Audi front, there are some parts that make things fast, but the most insane one is a Jo’burg-based Audi R8 that’s nicely kitted out. If memory serves, the car initially used a Sheepey Race turbo kit that was bolted on, but altitude and tuning caused some issues and the motor was lost. This prompted the owner to just bring in a full Sheepey built motor, the power was kept a little secret but the car ran low 10-second passes on less than a bar boost. 

This time round the Sheepey Race crew has turned their attention to their RS6, which already looks great, but will now have even more power on tap to give it the bark to match the bite. Not that an RS6 needs any fiddling, it’s a beast from the showroom floor. In OEM form the longroof is equipped with a 4.0-litre V8 with a pair of turbochargers adding enough spice to produce 412 kW and a massive 702 Nm of torque. This can propel the sizeable Audi to 100 km/h in just 3.9-seconds and it has a top speed electronically limited to 250 km/h, although that can be bumped up to 304 km/h if the package with the optional carbon-ceramic brake upgrade. There’s no word on the total power output that the Sheepey Race version will produce, but if you check out the video and listen to the plans it should be something pretty fun. The first part sees the RS6 getting loaded up with a Unitronic software upgrade. Hardware will follow.

Take a look at the YouTube video showing the upgrades carried out on one of the coolest longroofs ever to exist, the amazing Audi RS6. This won't be the first video in the series, and we'll be keeping an eye out for future videos because we really want to see the end result, and we're sure you will too: RS6 GETS SOME UPGRADES! | Sheepey Race
