After breaking record with several M3, M5 or M6 models, the German tuner takes the express and special BMW M3 GTS to a new level. In January, the company said it will requite the M3 GTS over 600 horsepower and that the power upgrade will extend to 720 horsepower.

Without any changes to the chassis, the G-Power M3 GTS reports a 1:eleven.viii fourth dimension around the track, considerably faster when compared to the standard 450 hp M3 GTS (1:12.5 minutes).

From 0 to 62 mph, the pumped upward M3 GTS scored iv.ii seconds on the clock, and eleven.9 seconds till 124 mph (200 km/h). The M-Ability SK Ii "Sporty Drive" supercharger system costs an additional 27, 969 euros.

To larn more than near the G-Ability BMW M3 GTS, meet the printing release below.

BMW G Power M3 GTS SKII Sporty Drive 04 655x436 Club sport events are enjoying increasing popularity across the world. These events have traditionally been dominated past Porsche vehicles. So, in 2009, BMW decided to end ignoring widespread customer demands for a base vehicle for use in club sport events and unveiled the Project M3 GTS. Commitment of the limited run of 150 units was scheduled for early 2010. Still, it took until the stop of 2010 for the outset vehicles to achieve customer hands, of which iii found their way immediately into the G-Power workshops.

Although the BMW M3 GTS differed from the base of operations M3 in almost all parameters relevant to motorsport – adjustable aerodynamic body components front and rear, 100 kg less weight, a modified intermission and brake setup – the power increase of xxx hp to 450 hp turned out to be somewhat reserved. This is particularly so, when you consider that the Porsche 911 GT3 RS with the same output has to move only 1,370 kg (DIN). Against this, the 1,530 kg (DIN) of the BMW M3 GTS seems almost flabby.

Luckily for all ambitious social club sport drivers, G-POWER is able to resolve this shortcoming. With our more than than 25-year experience in the BMW sector, we are still the world'south number one accost when it comes to supercharger systems for BMW vehicles in general and M models in detail.

A version of the renowned and globally proven G-Ability M3 "Sporty Drive" supercharger organization, adjusted specifically for the BMW M3 GTS raises the standard output from 450 hp to 635 hp and 630 Nm of torque. The high-revving V8 ability unit from M GmbH, with a ten% greater displacement of four.4 fifty, has proven itself every bit the ideal starting point for the forced induction technology practiced by Thou-Power with ASA superchargers. These are used not only in the ALPINA B5S, B6S and B7S models, but as well in the ALPINA B6 GT3. In ALPINA'south works race machine, the ASA supercharger has already provided impressive proof of its reliability and quality in contest over a distance of 3,500 km through the "Greenish Hell" – at the 24 Hours of the Nürburgring. The exclusive application of OEM-quality components is a key element of the One thousand-POWER philosophy and the ground for the exceptionally high quality, reliability and durability of G-POWER products.

On the exhaust side, a lightweight, all-titanium exhaust system made by One thousand-POWER delivers the necessary reduction in exhaust back pressure. The frazzle, developed specifically to adapt the requirements of the SK Ii supercharger system, is equipped with 100 cpsi metal catalytic converters. The engine control unit of measurement software, which controls the setup for the V8, was as well developed by G-Ability for the BMW M3 GTS. Naturally, the hardware of the G-POWER M3 supercharger system has a weight loss program of its own – if desired, the large One thousand-Power airbox tin can be ordered in lightweight carbon-cobweb.

In combination with the G-Ability SK II "Sporty Drive" supercharger system, this kind of loftier-revving V8 is naught brusque of stunning. The "Sporty Drive" technology, developed by Thousand-POWER for the G-POWER supercharger systems retains the unique performance characteristics of the G power unit. Compared with the series-product version, the addition of a G-Ability supercharger organisation delivers farther improved response to even the tiniest motility of the gas pedal, plus absolutely no restrictions in its aggressive high revving under full load and progressive power delivery right upward to the rev limiter. In addition to these features, the increased output of the V8 engine delivered by the Grand-Power supercharger system as well comes with a meaning plus in mid-range torque. Especially when accelerating out of a slow corner, this feature of "Sporty Drive" technology will leave competitors to Thousand-Power M3 GTS drivers looking on in despair.

The functioning figures, too, are designed to drive fear into the hearts of the competition. The Thousand-POWER M3 GTS with 635 hp completes the standard sprints from 0-100 km/h and 0-200 km/h in 4.2s and 11.9s. Top speed is 323 km/h. These figures have been clocked by the German language car periodical "sport car" during their latest test of the G-Power M3 GTS that will be published on Friday May 20th.

Further modifications to the series-production suspension and wheels of the BMW M3 GTS were not undertaken, every bit the standard Chiliad-GmbH setup already guarantees perfect balance and race-ready handling. It was only the shortage of power that was preventing faster lap times. With 635 hp, the hunt for lap time records is now on, similar the "sport auto" has proven with a new fastest lap for BMW M3s on the Hockenheim circuit. Information technology took the G-POWER M3 GTS, equipped with MICHELIN standard street tires, just 1.11,viii min to complete the lap.
