Nissan GT-R, Lambo, Noble, and Others Highway Video with a Helicopter

admin — Sat, 18 May 2013 00:51:41 +0000

Vivid Racing put on its first ever invite only Poker Run that covered 300 miles of some of the coolest 2 lane back roads that we know of. With such incredible cars from ZO6′s, M3′s, Lamborghini LP560, our Noble M400, and a slew of other rides, we circled a route around the southwest valley here in Arizona. Where most people just use some in car cameras or show side by sides, we went next level… got a helicopter! Dream come true since 2004 Gumball 3000 movie was filmed. Chasing us down “dead cow” road, flying up the I-8, and cruising through the old mining towns, our group had an amazing time. Enjoy this cinematic video from www.codygephart.com and remember to SUBSCRIBE to our channel and view our other videos!

Yes People are Still Making 996 Turbo Performance Parts!

admin — Wed, 08 May 2013 19:45:46 +0000

One of the most popular power upgrades for the Porsche 996 Turbo, X50, GT2 has been our high flow 3 inch Y-Pipe kit. Now this same kit that has been available for years is now available in full carbon fiber! The new Y-Pipe replaces the factory unit and 70% of the silicone boost hoses. Designed to work with the stock style intercoolers, we include new silicone adapters and cnc machined fittings. The new Y-Pipe reduces any possibility of pressure drop or blowing off a boost hose. As well, the Y-Pipe reduces the bend by about 45 degrees compared to stock for a straight shot to the intercooler. Because of the shape and design, airflow is improved which equals the improvement in power. Our end goal was simple, build a product that would retain the stock airbox, flow better, use OEM parts, and look the part!
Using our Mustang all wheel drive dyno, we tested the original part on a car with 91 octane and low boost set at 1.2bar. With fans moving fresh air to the intercoolers, we did a baseline on the car and achieved a starting point of 493whp and 477ft/lbs of torque. Leaving the car strapped to the dyno, we removed the stock Y-Pipe and bolted on the Agency Power upgraded carbon y-pipe. With everything secured in place, we fired up the car to give it a run with the new Y-Pipe. With absolutely NO changes to the cars configuration, the Y-Pipe added 21whp and 24ft/lbs of torque to the car. This was quite an impressive bolt on gain that also added style and potential scalable performance to the car.

This part fits all 2001-2005 Porsche 996 Turbo, X50, and GT2. All Agency Power products come with a LIMITED LIFETIME warranty. View more info and pricing here

The Porsche chassis has been one of the most incredible tuner cars for several years. As enthusiasts, tuners, and professionals alike try to push the limits of Stuttgart’s creation, one thing for sure is they will need to transfer that power to the ground. Since 1976, Clutch Masters has been enhancing clutch products to give vehicles the performance it demands.

Clutch Masters Porsche clutch program has become very successful and trusted as a replacement for the stock unit. Based off of OEM Sachs components, Clutch Masters enhances both the clutch disc and pressure plate.

In 2010, our 825hp 997 Turbo went 206.2 mph at the Texas Mile using their Twin Disc 850 kit. This Porsche was also used as a daily driver. Based on this versatility, we knew that Clutch Masters was the only answer to upgrading the stock clutch and flywheel.

Ready to Race WRC Style? Check Out NEW Stilo Items!

admin — Mon, 08 Apr 2013 19:23:09 +0000

If you live to watch late night WRC events and then wake up and head to the track, most likely you own a helmet. But who are you kidding going out to events in a motorcycle helmet? If you want to be the part, you got to look the part! That is where this all new manufacture for Vivid Racing comes into place. Stilo was founded in 1999 by a former champion Italian race car driver. Producing extremely lightweight closed and open face helmets, they are very popular in WRC, F1, and other motorsports because of the integration with the ChatterBox communication systems. Their carbon fiber DES helmet is probably the most recognizeable with its half face shield, HANs Device integration, microphone setup, and EPS cheek pads.

The entire Stilo line up can be seen on our Racing Gear Store here..

The Ultimate STÄTUS Symbol for Mercedes

admin — Thu, 04 Apr 2013 17:14:07 +0000

Mercedes owners have always had STÄTUS envy. Many Mercedes customers of ours want custom STÄTUS seats, but up until now, they were nearly impossible to install. This was because the OEM seat-belt buckle was attached to the factory seat as one piece. We recognized the need for a bracket that could hold the STÄTUS seat and the OEM seat-belt buckle. We reached out to our friends over at Agency Power, to create a customized bracket that would be comparable to the factory setup. Agency Power custom made a prototype seat bracket that housed the STÄTUS seat, and OEM factory seat-belt buckle. It is thanks to this partnership that Mercedes owners everywhere can now be STÄTUS icons.

This is the W204 chassis model and is only available for Mercedes C-Class 08-13+. Vivid Racing will be offering this Agency Power/ STÄTUS duo in the future. However, this package is not yet available online. If you’re interested in purchasing one, please email sales@vividracing.com. Here is a preview of the install.
