GeigerCars.de and Jeep Team Up and Release 718HP Grand Cherokee SRT

GeigerCars.de is a tuning company based in Germany which specializes in the customization of American-made cars. This time under their attention is the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT, which has received some significant updates under the hood and minor exterior treatment.

Drivetrain

First and foremost here is the engine upgrade. Via a supercharger, the experts have boosted the standard figures of the 6.4-liter HEMI V8 engine under the hood of this Jeep. Precisely, the 2.9-liter supercharger features an intercooler.

Combined with the internal engine modifications including uprated pistons and the new ECU with its altered fuel and ignition software, the result is astounding: the vehicle can now produce up to 718 hp (528 kW) and 776 Nm (573 lb-ft) of torque.

Fortunately, GeigerCars.de has given us date how this car reacts against the stopwatch after the tuning was implemented. And the new numbers are quite spectacular. The SRT Cherokee blasts to 100km/h in just 3.9 seconds. The Vmax was also updated and it now stands at 295 km/h.

Exterior

The enhanced performance nececarily needs improvements in safety. Therefore, the tuning company decided to offer performance suspension modifications via new lowering sport springs and uprated anti-roll bars that additionally reduce body roll in fast cornering.

Other than the foil wrap, which comes in brown-goldish color, and wheels and tires we won’t see anything else changed here. The alloys measure 22-inch and come in black polished color, while the rubbers measure 305/35R22 at all four corners.

Here is How GeigerCars.de Customized the Ford Mustang GT

The German tuners at GeigerCars.de have just sent us an e-mail with this special project involving a Fort Mustang GT. Along with the stunning pictures they have also said some specifics about the in-house tuned car. Just to tease you a bit: not only design updates were implemented, but also a major engine boost.

Engine

The most prominent modification here is on the engine. After the treatment, the 5.0-liter V8 unit sends significantly more power to the rear wheels. This is due to a supercharger installation. As a result the powerplant now produces 709 hp (521 kW) and 706 Nm (521 lb-ft) of torque.

These numbers are transmitted onto the road via six-speed manual transmission. And if you wonder about the 0-100 km/h acceleration time, well it happens in just 3.9 seconds. The top speed has been also extended and it is now of 305 km/h.

At the back, the superpowers of the V8 are complemented by the new stainless steel sports exhaust with valve control. It also features NASCAR grade roar of the supercharged engine.

GT Performance Package

In addition to the updated engine and the six-speed manual, the tuners are also offering a special pack which will make the Mustang even better. It consists of an uprated cooling system and springs for the front suspension, a 3.73:1 final drive ratio with Torsen limited slip differential, stability control system and Brembo high performance brake system.

With this pack, the customers will also get some cabin extras like the Recaro sports seats, additional instruments, parking aid, Shaker Pro-audio system, HD radio, memory function for the driver’s seat and mirrors, and a blind-spot warning system.

Other performance parts which aren’t featured here but can be easily purchased are the 30 mm lowering springs and front and rear anti-roll bars.

Wheels & Tires

At last, we should say that this car runs on special wheels. They are in-house made as well, come in black and have Y-spokes. The sizes for the front and the rear are 8.5 and 10×20-inch, respecitvely, and they are mated to a 255 /35R20 and 295/30R20 tires.

Dodge Challenger Hellcat Arrives in Europe

Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat can be already acquired in Europe and responsible for this are the specialists at GeigerCars.de. The most powerful production muscle car with 707 hp, which will also make prominent appearance in ‘Furious 7’, is showed here with some stylish tweaks which need some attention and can be seen in the gallery below.

An interesting fact, that is not so popular, is that the Hellcat 6.2-litre V8 unit under the hood of this Dodge is actually based on the larger displacement 6.4-litre, 492 hp engine. The latter we have seen powering the Challenger SRT 392. The difference here is that the first one includes a twin-screw supercharger, while the second is naturally-aspirated.

There is therefore no question where these 707 hp (567 kW) come from. The torque that we haven’t mentioned is measured at 881 Nm (650 lb-ft). This results in a 3.7 seconds acceleration time for the 0-100 km/h sprint and a V-max of 320 km/h.

Because the engine is that powerful it requires a huge quantity of cooling air. This is why the Challenger received this new nose with big intakes behind which are positioned four large intercoolers.

The impressive exterior paint finish of this particular car is complemented by aggressive matt black graphics. All of this is then mimicked in the ‘Slingshot’ wheels. They are black, multispoked and include and outer green strip. The size of the alloys is 9.5 x 20-inches while this of the tyres – 275/40R20. Oh, and do you notice the 390 mm two-piece Brembo brakes behind the wheels?

GeigerCars.de will offer all interested a huge variety of paint and trim options, while inside the choice is between Nappa leather with Alcantara and Laguna premium leather treatment. And if you already wonder about the price, it is 86,000 Euros which equals around $90,620 US Dollars. Although this is pretty impressive amount of money, we must admit that there is no other car on the European market with these powerful capabilities.

Jeep Wrangler Sport Arrives with More Power

Known for their styling and performance improvements for US cars, the Munich region-based professionals at GeigerCars.de provide a Jeep Wrangler with some significant modifications. Like a supercharger upgrade that boosts the Jeep’s power for example.

Thanks to the GeigerCars.de supercharger, the Wrangler’s 3.6 liter V6 engine is now able to pump out a power output that is 80 HP and 70 Nm of torque more than before. Thus, the vehicle now has to tame 356 horses while giving 417 Nm of torque respectively.

Other components which are part of the conversion are: a cold air intake box, charge air inter-cooler and bespoke ECU remapping. Furthermore, power and throttle response are helped by GeigerCars.de four-outlet-pipe stainless steel sports exhaust. It reduces back-pressure and is able to offer more sporty and harmonious sound. If such sound could be described as harmonious… Maybe harmonious in a rougher way.

What is more, the off-road capability of this powerful automotive monster is improved by a riser kit that lifts the ground clearance by 2.5 inches and also raises the seating position. Looking tougher than ever, this Jeep Wrangler Sport benefits from 18-inch alloy wheels with 305/70 Mickey Thompson tires. The tuner also gives the Jeep five powerful LED E-marked street legal auxiliary lights, front bumper bull bar and strong metal front skid plate, protecting the front grille and the undercarriage when going through a difficult terrain, while the rear bumper gains a special carrier for the big spare wheel and a water tank.

Lastly, this vehicle comes with the factory automatic transmission, hardtop, leather upholstery, high-end audio system, and a kilometers speedometer.

The completed 2015 GeigerCars Jeep Wrangler Sport with all the components costs 64,200 euro. Yet, they can be ordered separately.

GeigerCars Dodge Ram 1500

Dodge RAM 1500 is now presented to us with breathtaking variation. In my opinion it’s probably the best looking full-size pick up truck on the road. It was named a “Motor trend truck of the year 2014”, the only vehicle to win that award in back-to-back years.

This award winning, half ton pickup truck is equipped with the new 3.0 liter V6 Common Rail turbo diesel engine, with the maximum performance of 241 hp (179 kW). With a maximum torque peak of 569 Nm (419 lb-ft). Highly manageable consumption rate of just 7.5 liters(100 km), ( 38 mpg UK or 31.3 mpg US), along with a brand new automatic 8-gearbox, pneumatic suspension and huge trailer load of a maximum of 3,500 kg Dodge RAM 1500 4×4 Crew Cab Ram Box 3.0l V6 EcoDiesel, makes us happy and mostly surprised to witness its overwhelming leadership over the Nissan Navara which has a slightly different gearbox of just 7 levels.

What I really like about that Dodge Ram is how wide the doors open with a great entryway. As far as for legroom, there is plenty of space in the backseat position with enough space for your knees, providing enough room to feel as comfortable as you can. The headroom is great, and even better with a indent at the top of the roof line which provides extra room for the taller ones.

The leather interior is what I like as well, with its brown on tan color scheme. A folding armrest placed at the middle of the backseat to which you can lean on, along with a pair of cup holders. There are also two cup holders on the floorboard. An 8.4 inch touchscreen display has all the navigation controls you can access and work on making your driving a lot easier.

The rear view camera position is right next to the handle of the tailgate which allows you to see how close you are to the trailer hitch, assuming you want to attach a trailer or a boat. A few other safety items, like parking sensors positioned all along the rear bumper, along with duo exhaust tips. The Dodge Ram 1500 behaves extremely well and handles itself good in deep snow and rough terrain.

Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 is a pure fun car, but somehow it need more individuality and here comes the tuned version by GeigerCars. The tuning company has unveiled a special performance and styling packages for the Coupe. The name of the project is GT640 Golden Snake and as you may suggest – 640 is the number of the horsepower.

The styling package includes a matte gold finish, a carbon fiber hood, a front lip spoiler and widened side skirts. For better stance and handling, the tuner installed an adjustable H&R sports suspension and huge 20” alloy wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires.

The power of The Beast comes from a mighty 5.4 liter supercharged V8 with ECU re-map and stainless steel sport exhaust system. The result is staggering 640PS (471 kW) and 789Nm (582 lb-ft) of torque, so it is a real muscle car. The acceleration is brutal – 0 to 100 km/h in 3.7 seconds and top speed of 295 km/h (183 mph). As we know, the American muscles do not have the best aerodynamics in the world and even with such amount of power, the car can’t pass the 300 km/h barrier.
