Revo Releases Big Brake Kit Upgrade Kit

Improves stopping power under any condition!

Revo recommends increased braking performance any time you are adding more power to your vehicle. If you’re capable of achieving higher speed, your vehicle needs to deal with that speed safely and reliably.

The Revo by Alcon Big Brake Kit is engineered to improve your vehicles stopping power in any condition. Our Big Brake Kit is derived from race winning technology and capable of delivering consistent stopping power whether coming up to a stoplight or a 2nd gear corner at the end of a 140mph straight on your favorite track, you can rely on this system stop after stop!

Brake Calipers:

revo-disc

Revo by Alcon Calipers are cast from one piece of aluminum. The single casting design creates an incredibly stiff monoblock caliper. This monoblock design means significantly less flex in the caliper than other manufacturing processes and allows for less pedal travel as the brake fluid is only applying force to the Pistons and not flexing the body of the caliper itself. In short, more of your braking effort is translated directly from your foot, to the Pistons, to the pads and then to the rotors. This leads to improved and repeatable braking performance.

Floating Rotors:

A “Floating Rotor” design has been used all over the world in motorsport applications for many years. The rotors found on most race vehicles have too much float for a daily driven vehicle causing more noise than most would want from their road car. We have engineered a unique noise reducing method which eliminates noise while allowing for the thermal expansion associated with repeated high speed braking.

BENEFITS

  • Eliminates fade & warping
  • Quicker reaction time
  • Improved pedal feel
  • Lightweight
  • Lower long-term maintenance costs
  • Easy installation

TESTING

To ensure our brake kit would meet the constant high stress driving of track days, sprints and fast road driving we punished our kits to the maximum. Constant heavy braking testing was carried out to ensure no fade occurred back to back against stock braking system on our MK7 VW Golf R. As well as the track testing 10 runs of back to back 60-0mph and 100-0mph was done to show the benefit of the Revo braking system. As well as measuring the stopping distances and times over the 10 runs of each speed thermal testing was also done to show the difference in heat displacement over our 2 piece floating design against a factory 1 piece design

Review: Saying Goodbye to the CC V6

For all its size and its global reach, Volkswagen is still, in many ways, a deeply human company. There was, for instance, the Bugatti Veyron an ego project if ever there was one. Then the purchase of Ducati, a move most called folly. And then there was the Phaeton, the Volkswagen that most folks can’t afford. Not only were these moves all strange, I’m sure that they made VW’s accountants furious. None of them made good business sense, but they were all deeply interesting and they all are evidence of the heart that beats at the center of VW. Among these follies is the CC, a car that everyone agrees is rakishly handsome, but that no one really wanted to buy. The car couldn’t last, but the world is brighter for its having been in it. With the approach debut of the Arteon, it seems like a good time to look back on its sadly departing predecessor. The version I drove, because I live in Canada, is a V6 Wolfsburg Edition, which apparently isn’t available in the States. Nor is the V6, not as...

T-Prime Makes World Premiere at Beijing

[ See image gallery at www.vwvortex.com ] The SUV segment is one of the fastest growing segments in the world and Volkswagen is showing the world how to do it. With the new T-Prime Concept GTE that was revealed today, the company is showing off all of the technology you can look for in its coming models. The T-Prime is a full-size hybrid SUV that can go up to 31 miles on a charge and gets 87 mpg. The hybrid power station is good for 375 hp and 516 lb/ft of torque and puts the power down with 4MOTION all wheel drive. It’ll get you up to 60 in six seconds. The concept’s real party piece, though, is its interior, which features exclusively touch, gesture, and voice controls. Everything from the infotainment, to the display, and even the gears are controlled by touch-screen. The T-Prime Concept GTE is bigger than the Touareg, and design elements are likely to find their way into all of their SUVs, of which there will be many. Volkswagen is also announcing that they expect to make an S...

Audi Teases the e-tron’s Headlights Ahead of LA Reveal

Audi will unveil its new electric car, the e-tron GT, in just a few short days, but until then, it will do what manufacturers can’t help but do and will tease it mercilessly. The latest teaser images first appeared on Germany’s Bild , and feature some of the EV’s lighting. While the taillights look reasonably familiar, albeit on an interesting, angular surface, the headlights feature a heretofore unseen light shape. The X-shape (or maybe an R-shape, from the right angle) in the middle of the e-tron GT’s headlights set it apart from the rest of the lineup, even the e-tron SUV (whose lights look R8-ish with their angular check-shaped top line.) #Sneak Peek: the #Audi #etron GT concept – stay tuned for the big #world #premiere on November 28. pic.twitter.com/NIg0z6bIwR — AUDI AG (@Audi_Press) November 25, 2018 The long and low sedan will be based on the same platform as the Porsche Taycan, which is said to hit 60 mph in just 3.5 seconds and whose batteries will all be stowed...
