The iconic off-roader’s V8 now receives an addition of 74 hp and 140 Nm of torque

G-POWER has been mainly associated with BMW conversions. However, the tuning studio is also keen on optimizing another German automaker’s models: the Mercedes-Benz cars. The conversion here includes the iconic off-roader G63 AMG, which has received a significant power boost and a brand new shoes to run on.

The latest variant of the Mercedes-AMG G63 is driven by the 5.5-litre twin-turbo V8 engine, which produces the impressive 571 hp (420 kW) with 760 Nm (561 lb-ft) of torque. So, it is a great basis to work on, and the G-POWER engineers have taken advantage of this fact.

The first thing they did is to develop a Bi-Tronik 5 V1 power module, which helps the V8 release additionally 74 hp and 140 Nm of torque. To make the math for you, this makes a total of 645 hp (474 kW) and 900 Nm (664 lb-ft).

G-POWER Mercedes-AMG G63 engine

Here are some details about this power module: it is connected upstream of the engine control unit, thus modifying the data from the vehicle’s sensors and transmitting it to the stock ECU. The latter has an output control parameters, which are based on this incoming data.

If we have more power, we should also have better performance, right? The stopwatch says it better: due to the extra power and torque, this G63 AMG is now capable to run from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.3 seconds. After the removal of the top speed limiter, the off-roader can now produce more than 250 km/h!

More power sometimes requires new on-road attitude, and the simplest way to achieve this is to add new wheels. So the specialists at G-POWER didn’t hesitate to equip the Mercedes with their ultra-light 23-inch HURRICANE RR forged alloys, fitting it additionally with 305/35ZR23 tyres. They have black finish and five double-spoke wheel design, which perfectly highlights the sports character of the G63 AMG and contrasts its exterior paint scheme.

G-Power shows how to make the fastest coupe even faster

BMW M4 Coupe gets a comprehensive power upgrade

Did you know that the BMW M4 GTS is almost twice the price of a normal M4 Coupe? It is priced approximately at 142,600 euros ($161,200 USD), but this does not seem to bother enthusiasts. Another interesting fact about the limited edition M4 GTS is that it will be produced in 700 copies, which is one of the reasons for being so expensive. But even this exclusivity could be made better, right? Here step in G-POWER: BMW M-Series tuning specialists, who have more than 35 years of experience in the modification of the Bavarian models.

They have actually recognized that the new M4 GTS is the perfect machine to make full use of their Bi-Tronik 2 V3 ECU upgrade. So they did change not one, but actually four of these significant models.

The goal of G-POWER tuning experts was to achieve more than 615 hp. So what they did is to undertake significant internal modifications to the turbine wheel and housing, add new stainless steel downpipes without catalysts for reduced backpressure, and boost the curves of the Bi-Tronik 2 V3 via custom mapping.

As a result, the twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter straight six engine, has an enhance power output from 500 hp (368 kW) to a whopping 615 hp (452 kW), with peak torque jumping from 600 Nm (443 lb-ft) to 760 Nm (561 lb-ft). With the help of the Launch Control, the G-POWER-modified M4 GTS sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.6 seconds on its way to the 320 km/h top speed.

By the way, there is an option which does not include the aforementioned mechanical modifications. This means that there is a basic conversion that uses the G-POWER Bi-Tronik 2 V2 with mapping optimization and boosts the output to 575 hp (423 kW) and 740 Nm (546 lb-ft).

If you ask about chassis modifications, here’s only one and it is the new wheels. The reason for this is the ultra exclusive fully adjustable coilover suspension that comes as standard with the M4 GTS. Precisely, G-POWER added in-house made lightweight HURRICANE RR sized 21-inches and fitted with low-profile performance tyres. Enjoy!

When one 600HP BMW is not enough, you make two of them!

G-Power BMW M3 (F80) and M4 (F82) deliver 1,200 hp combined output!

G-Power is one of the main companies out there which specialize in BMW tuning. There is no doubt that by doing so they make the enthusiasts happier than before. Adding to the excitement is the fact that the experts usually work with the M-Series… Just like in their latest project, which is an interpretation of the latest BMW M3 F80 saloon and the brand new M4 F82 Coupe.

Basically, both cars deliver a combined output of 1,200 hp, which means that the exact force of each BMW is 600 hp. To asses this achievement at its worth, we should mention that the cars are powered by the twin-turbo 3.0-litre unit, which produces as a standard 431 hp (317 kW) and 550 Nm (406 lb-ft).

You are now asking (probably), how the +169HP and the +190Nm were achieved. And to keep you off from the boring details, you should only know that the G-Power specialists have used their bespoke Bi-Tronik 2 V3 module. Also helping to increase the force are the larger diameter exhaust downpipes, which come without catalytic converters. The addition of the ultra-lightweight titanium exhaust system with carbon-fibre tailpipe ends also reduce the back-pressure.

G-Power BMW M3 F80 and M4 F82 engine

How does this dramatic increase of power affect the performances of the M3 and M4? In terms of acceleration, the benchmark 0-100 km/h sprint is slashed to just 3.7 seconds. In other words, this is 0.5 seconds faster than stock. The top speed was unleashed via recalibration and now reaches over 320 km/h.

Chassis balance was also on the “to do list”, hence the fully adjustable GM4-RS coil-over suspension was added. The aero components couldn’t be avoided too, so here we see RS front spoiler, CS front splitter, rear diffuser and boot mounted spoiler. The latter only comes for the M4 Coupe.

Last but not least, a set of G-Power HURRICANE RR lightweight forged alloys, sized 21-inches and shod with high performance tires, fill out the big arches and complete the menacing new appearance of both BMWs.

G-Power BMW X6 M Typhoon front view Yes, this vehicle is called Typhoon and it looks and feels (for those driving) spectacular. Featuring wide-body kit with huge wheels and unlimited power, this machine will surely behave like a typhoon on the streets. The conversion is actually possible for the BMW X5 (F85) and X6 (F86) models, which can produces stock 575 hp. The model featured on the pictures is the X6.

The Typhoon Wide-Body Kit

The wide-body kit with the furious name catches the eye immediately. Maybe this is because of its muscular wheel arch flares that extend the width of the X6 M by several centimeters. There is also a brand new front bumper/spoiler, which makes sure for a distinctive and unforgettable face. Larger air vents and spoiler element over the front axle are at hand as well.

An emblematic addition to this tuning is the carbon-fibre ‘Venturi’ bonnet. It is in perfect harmony with the front bumper intakes. They also serve a very practical function and it is to increase the under bonnet cooling airflow, which will eventually benefit the engine performance.

The elegant side skirts are the visual link between the wider front and rear arches. At the back, we see new rear valance with large underbody diffuser is and couple of twin 102 mm tailpipes coming out from the titanium sports exhaust system.

Speaking of the big wheel arches, they are filled by 23-inch diameter ‘HURRICANE RR’ lightweight forged alloy wheels. The latter a mated to 315/25ZR23 tyres.

True Performance Typhoon

X6 M Typhoon is a true performance master. Via hardware and ECU-remapping, the vehicle is now capable of achieving the unthinkable. The hardware part comprises of two turbochargers, larger compressor wheels, exhaust turbines with bespoke units featuring curved turbine blades with capped ends, flow-optimized sports exhaust system. And by the way the latter also delivers incredibly deep V8 soundtrack!

At last, the Bi-Tronik 2 V3 ECU remap serves in terms of adapting the fuel, air, spark and boost pressure to make use the new turbochargers. The result is spectacular: 750 hp (551 kW) and 980 Nm (723 lb-ft) of torque, top speed over 300 km/h and outrageous performance.
