BMW M550d by G-Power
The BMW M550 diesel is capable of some impressive
performance, while offering a more-than-decent fuel economy for the monster
that it is.
G-Power believes that the tri-turbo diesel
high-performance executive model should be even more powerful, and is offering
two power upgrades for both the sedan and estate variants.
Known as D-Tronik 2v1 and D-Tronik 5v1, the former
is all about engine remapping, while the latter is a plug and play device,
placed between the factory ECU and the internal combustion unit. Both upgrades
take the standard 381 PS (376 HP) and 740 Nm of torque, produced by
the 3.0-liter, tri-turbo, six-banger, and bring it to 435 PS and 850
Nm of torque.
G-Power doesn’t reveal the new 0 to 100 km/h sprint, but it should improve upon the standard car's 4.7 seconds that's
just 0.3 seconds behind the M5.
The tuner
recommends fitting the vehicle with their 20-/21-inch Hurricane RR
forged wheels, available in Jet Black, Gun Metal Grey and Stardust Silver. If
you go for the Diamond Cut finish, the rims can also come partially or
completely polished, while the tuner also allows users to personalize the
wheels with a personal signature on each one, up to 15 characters.
