  • G-Power BMW E92 M3 Hurricane RS – 720HP and 700Nm

    G-Power has revealed their latest project based on BMW E92 M3. The sports coupe has received a number of upgrades, but the most important is the performance package – SK III “Sporty Drive”.

    The performance upgrade include an ASA T1-724 supercharger, MAHLE forged pistons and new connecting rods. There is also a full titanium sports exhaust system and a modified crankshaft. The engine displacement has grown up to 4.6 liters, instead of 4.0.

    The result is spectacular – 720HP (530 kW) and 700Nm (516 lb-ft) of torque. 0-100 km/h in 3.7 seconds, 0-200 km/h in 9.5 seconds and a top seed of 340 km/h (211 mph).

    The exterior comes with full aerodynamics body kit including a front spoiler, bonnet and a boot lid with tear-off edge. The M3 HURRICANE RS aerodynamic program is manufactured from supremely light and highly strong Carbon fibre in a gas-proof autoclave. The package saves more than 10kg.

    Other highlights include G-Power Clubsport coil-over suspension and 20” G-Power Silverstone Diamond forged wheels. The tires are Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires in the dimension 255/30 ZR 20 on the front axle and 295/25 ZR 20 for the rear axle to keep the vehicle in contact with the road. Braking is done with the G-POWER-ceramic brakes on the front and rear axle, which provide low-weight and reliable high-performance braking. „Fade“ is therefore a foreign word for the 6-piston brake calipers in front which bite on 396 mm rotors and the 4-piston calipers at the rear axle which clamp on 380 mm rotors.

  • G-Power BMW G1 V8 Hurricane RS – 314 km/h [video]

    The mighty BMW 1-Series tuned from G-Power boasts 600HP and 580Nm of torque.

    The power comes from a V8 4.0-liter supercharged engine. This is enough for reaching a top speed of over 330 km/h (205 mph) and staggering acceleration. 0-100 km/h in just 4.4 seconds. However, the test driver Christian Gebhardt from sportauto.de managed to it “just” 314 km/h (195 mph), because he drove a prototype with a top speed limiter in the ECU.

    Besides the engine swap, the G1 V8 comes with a set of huge 20” alloy wheels, stainless sports exhaust system, a full coilover suspension and some weight reduction thanks to a carbon fiber hood and a trunk lid.

    The car also has brutal carbon ceramic brakes in order to handle all that power coming from the engine.

  • BMW M5 G-POWER HURRICANE RS Touring

    BMW M5 G-POWER HURRICANE RS Touring is powered by twin-supercharged V10 with 750PS (551 kW). It is built for one and only reason to be the fastest estate car on the planet and it did it – 360 km/h. This is enough to beat the existing record of 344.2 km/h set by MTM Audi RS6 R from 2009.

    Here is the video, where HURRICANE RS Touring does 224 mph.

    The staggering results are thanks to a number of upgrades. (more…)
