2003 ABT TT Limited Wide Body<\/h1>\n
\n

As a result of extensive wind tunnel tests, the Abt specialists<\/a> from Kempten have established an aerodynamic kit which results into more downforce and therefore, a better road-holding with the TT Wide Body. At the Nurburgring, Laurent Aiello has scored two brilliant victories for the Team Abt Sportsline with the Hasseroder-yellow Abt-Audi TT-R. This TT Wide Body not only shares the front spoilers and the extended fenders with the race car, but also the side skirts, a rear wing and a complicated diffuser, which gives downforce at the rear. Several carbonfibre parts also add to the feeling. <\/span><\/p>\n

The technicians that built the limited wide body have also used racing experience while conceiving the suspension. Christian Abt himself has taken care of the set-up. The professional racing driver opted for Abt wheels of the type A27. ContiSportContact tyres with 235\/35 size have been mounted on the front wheels, 275\/30 tyres on the rear wheels.<\/p>\n

For the road the ride height of the Abt TT is lowered by 1.6 in (40 mm) compared to the standard model. The Abt sports team put a lot of racing knowledge into the TT: a sport suspension with stronger anti-roll bars, sports brakes, a safety bar made of polished aluminium, and a single windscreen wiper .<\/p>\n

310 bhp (228 kW) is the result of a power boost that turns the standard 225 hp (165 kW) engine into a racing machine. An Abt turbocharger with intercooler and exhaust system allow the standard power plant to breathe freely. A four-pipe exhaust system made of stainless steel with metal catalytic converters not only improves the appearance of the rear, but contributes to the fascinating sound of the Abt engine. With a top speed of approx. 254 kph and an acceleration from 0-100 kph in approx. 5.6 seconds, the statistics speak for themselves<\/p>\n
