Using words such as 'Typhoon' or 'Hurricane' to
describe cars is not exactly appropriate these days, after the natural
disasters that struck parts of Asia and the United States recently. However,
this is how G-Power baptizes its staggering creations, and their latest one
brings the BMW X5 M's output on the same page with some of the hottest
supercars of the moment.
It's called the 'Typhoon', and it takes 4.4-liter M
TwinPower Turbo V8 engine that powers the brand's flagship SUV, bringing its
output from 575 PS and 750 Nm of torque, to 750 PS and
980 Nm of torque.
These numbers were achieved by modifying the
turbochargers, and applying the Bi-Tronik 2 V3 engine control software, which
can be customized to each individual engine. The tuner doesn’t say how fast
their X5 M is to 100 km/h, but we're likely looking at a sub-4sec time.
Bystanders will definitely hear and see this potent
Bimmer SUV coming, as it also benefits from a titanium sports exhaust, wider
wheel arches, larger air intakes in the redesigned front bumper, tweaked rear
bumper, and giant 23-inch rims, wrapped in 315/25 high performance tires.
