YouTuber NM2255HD’s latest video reveals a nicely customized Audi RS Q8 that gets a new exhaust system alongside a mild performance boost.

Responsible for the project is BRS Motorsport from Milan, Italy. A simple ECU remap is said to bump the output from the stock 600 PS (592 hp / 441 kW) to 700 PS (690 hp / 515 kW). If true, this would put the crossover ahead of the technically related Lamborghini Urus in terms of raw performance.

What excites us about the project isn’t the power numbers, but a Capristo exhaust system that endows the SUV with a whole new voice. The tradeoff is a deleted gasoline particle filter, something that may get you in trouble in some areas. But you can use it on the track, right?

Rounding off the list is a deleted speed limiter, so the Ingolstadt-made SUV can now go much faster than the standard 250 km/h (155 miles per hour).
