Aggressive Looks, Lighter Build and a Roaring Titanium Exhaust

Introduction
At Opsholders, we specialize in turning exceptional cars into true masterpieces. Our latest project? A stunning transformation of the Audi R8 4S V10 Plus (2018). With the addition of an Akrapovič Slip-On Line (Titanium) exhaust system, premium Matts Performance carbon fiber parts, and a cutting-edge Sprint Filter, this supercar is now an unstoppable force of performance, sound, and style. Here’s a breakdown of the upgrades and why they take this car to the next level.

How It Started – The Stock Audi R8

The Audi R8 4S V10 Plus is already an engineering marvel with its naturally aspirated V10 engine and sleek design. But we saw room for improvement—turning this beauty into a beast by adding power, sound and aggressive styling.

The Upgrades – What We Did

1. Akrapovič Slip-On Line (Titanium) Exhaust System
   • Sound Evolution: The titanium exhaust unlocks the V10’s true voice, delivering a deep, aggressive growl while reducing weight for improved performance.
   • Performance Gains: Optimized airflow and reduced exhaust backpressure translate to enhanced throttle response and power delivery.
2. Sprint Filter C1062S-WP (Waterproof)
   • Airflow & Performance: Replacing the OEM air filters with Sprint Filter’s C1062S-WP dramatically increases airflow, delivering more power and responsiveness.
   • Unique Features: This filter not only enhances performance but also adds an aggressive induction sound under acceleration, amplifying the driving experience.
   • Waterproof Design: Sprint Filter’s WP Series is patented and fully waterproof, offering unmatched protection in all driving conditions without compromising airflow or performance.
   • Durability & Reusability: Made from advanced polyester material, these filters are washable and reusable, making them a long-term performance upgrade.
3. Matts Performance Carbon Fiber Parts
   • Aggressive Styling: Adding carbon fiber front splitters, side skirts, rear diffuser, and rear wing enhances the car’s sharp, race-inspired aesthetics.
   • Weight Reduction: Lightweight yet strong, these carbon parts reduce the car’s overall weight, improving handling and agility.

The Results – A Visual and Performance Powerhouse

With all these upgrades, the Audi R8 4S V10 Plus is now a completely transformed machine. From the bold, aggressive design brought to life with carbon fiber accents to the roaring titanium exhaust and enhanced airflow from the Sprint Filter, every detail has been fine-tuned for both looks and performance.
