(from G-Power Press
Release) Fast, Faster, G-POWER: 640 hp and a top speed of 315
km/h for the BMW M6 – G-POWER is activating the sporty genes of the
BMW luxury coupé
The BMW M6 is already fast when it comes from the factory. Now
G-POWER makes it even faster. The G-POWER Bi-Tronik III pushes the
factory 560 hp/ 680 Nm to 640 hp/ 777 Nm. 21 inch G-POWER
“SILVERSTONE RS” alloy wheels with MICHELIN Pilot Super Sport tyres
in the dimension 265/30 ZR 21 and 305/25 ZR 21, G-POWER coil-over
suspension, Titanium exhaust system and the G-POWER Ceramic Braking
System complete the G-POWER package for the BMW M6 F13.
• 640 hp /
471 kW at 6.000 - 7.000 rpm (+ 80 hp / 59 kW)
• 777 Nm at 1.500 rpm (+ 93 Nm)
• V-max: 315 km/h
• 0-100 km/h: 3,8s
• G-POWER 21’’ forged wheel set SILVERSTONE RS
• G-POWER Titanium exhaust system
• G-POWER coil-over suspension GM6-RS
• G-POWER Ceramic Braking System
The G-POWER program for
the BMW M6 F13 touches all key components and lets the nifty BMW M6
appear even more sporty and beautiful and makes it, last but not
least, a lot faster. In order to implement this target the G-POWER
engineering department has transferred its experience from the area
of supercharging to the turbocharged BMW 4.4l V8 engine. After all,
the ASA supercharger used for the G-POWER supercharger systems is
closely related to the turbochargers featured by BMW, since both
units us a centrifugal compressor to build up boost.
The basis for the electronic output increase is the fact that
G-POWER, in contrast to the manufacturer, does not use standard
software full of compromises but an individual solution for the
engine. Among others, the parameters for the amount of fuel and the
ignition timing are modified depending on the product variance of
the engine. Furthermore the boost level is moderately increased, as
well.
However, gone are the days in which the development of an electronic
power output increase has been finished at this point. G-POWER has
made almost the same invest in time, money and manpower in
developing supporting measures to the power output increase itself,
with a particular focus on the transmission. Based on the competence
and knowledge coming from the up to 800 hp strong BMW M5 HURRICANE
versions, G-POWER has managed to limit the torque figures during the
shifting process and so reduces the stress for the transmission.
This effort shows the difference in quality of the G-POWER
electronic power output increase when compared to the competition.
Just pushing the output fingers is something many can do; G-POWER is
providing a well balanced, high-quality package for the power output
increase of the BMW M6.
In a first step the G-POWER Bi-Tronik III pushes the BMW M6’s
standard output of 560 hp / 680 Nm to a more suitable 640 hp and 777
Nm of torque. Naturally the performance figures benefit from this
output increase, as well. The figure from stand still to 100 km/h is
now just 3,8 seconds and the top speed is 315 km/h.
Apart from the power output increase itself, G-POWER has taken care
of the sound of the BMW M6 F13, as well. The G-POWER Titanium
exhaust system, incl. Titanium link pipes with resonators starting
from the down pipe catalysts, gives the BMW M6 a deep, throaty sound
that turns heads but is at now time annoying and at the same time
saves approx. 12 kg compared to the stock exhaust system. The
G-POWER exhaust system is available with four Titanium or Carbon
Tailpipes with a diameter of 100 mm each.
Concerning the suspension at first one will notice the 21 inch
G-POWER SILVERSTONE RS forged wheels, wrapped with tyres from the G-POWER’s
technology partner MICHELIN in the dimensions 265/30 ZR 21 and
305/25 ZR 21. The double spokes, typical for the G-POWER design,
highlight the elegant design of the new BMW M6. Further improvement
of the road handling is realized through the continuously
height-adjustable G-POWER coil-over suspension GM6-RS with nine
selectable settings each for bound and rebound.
Of course the negative acceleration is in the focus of G-POWER, as
well. Even without output increase, the standard braking system may
lose brake force when pushed to the limit, accompanied by a moving
braking point, the so called fading effect. The perfect cure against
the fading effect is a G-POWER Braking System. With its six brake
pistons and 420 mm brake disc diameter for the front axle the
G-POWER Braking System enables a substantially higher brake force
than the standard braking system. At the same time, the heat
generated due to the braking process can be dissipated more
effectively. The G-POWER brake package is completed by brake pads
with a larger pad area, higher friction rate as well as metal-coated
brake lines. With this set-up, the G-POWER Braking System always
provides maximum brake force and the braking point remains precise
in any case. In addition the G-POWER ceramic braking system reduces
the unsprung mass by 50% percent, compared to a system with steel
brake discs. Accordingly the cornering and road handling is improved
significantly.
The cost for the 21 inch G-POWER SILVERSTONE RS complete wheel set
incl. MICHELIN Pilot Sport tyres in the dimension 265/30 ZR 21 and
305/25 ZR 21 is 8.325,00 €, the G-POWER coil-over suspension GM6-RS
is 2.179,83,00 €, the G-POWER Ceramic braking system for the front
axle is 14.460,50 Euro and the G-POWER Titanium exhaust system is
5.985,71 €. The output increase with the help of the G-POWER BI-TRONIK
III is 5.200,00 € including the individual adjustment of to the
specific customer car.
