G-Power Modify The BMW M3 Coupe To 500HP

Tuning News | Dean | June 1, 2009 at 13:17

G-Power, a German tuning firm has done some extensive work on the latest BMW M3 which features a 420-hp V8 engine. The G-Power firm has created their own M3 Tornado which features a light supercharger from ASA with a total boost of 0.3 bar.

The new supercharged is followed by a new intercooler and a new performance exhaust system. The 4.0-litre V8 now features 500-hp with 480Nm of torque, which is a hefty 80-hp jump in power.

The M3 Tornado features a 0-200km/h time of 13.5 seconds when using a 6-speed manual gearbox, and this is 2.3 seconds quicker than the standard model. All of the G-Power customers will be able to opt for a removal of the electronic speed limiter which will allow a top speed of 320km/h.

G-Power didn’t only add power packages though, as you will be able to find a height-adjustable coil-over suspension kit with nine different settings. There will be 20-inch wheels and quad exhausts at the back with the option of being made from stainless steel or titanium.

There will be no exterior upgrades on the G-Power M3 Tornado, where the interior features a bit of carbon fibre and a G-Power logo on the speedometer.

  1. That’s the power of a supercharger. Instant power boost. But I don’t like the look of the alloy wheels. They don’t gel with the car’s wheel arches or side profile.

    Yeah. But these wheels look smooth when rollin’…

    Supercharger.. for the win!
