1016 Industries has introduced their new tuning
program for the McLaren Sport Series which consists of the 540 C, 570 S, and
570 GT.
On the styling front, the cars are equipped with a
carbon fiber front splitter and "exaggerated" aero blades. The sporty
styling continues further back as the company installs new side blades which
give the model an aggressive appearance.
Other notable changes include a new hood and an
adjustable rear wing. The latter offers eight levels of height adjustment as
well as five different fixed angles. Drivers looking for more meaningful
upgrades can order an intelligent engine control module which enables the V8 to
produce an additional 50-60 hp and 94-108 Nm of
torque.
The company also offers a transmission recalibration
program which has "carefully re-imaged torque schedules, gearshift points,
gearshift speeds and, most importantly, intuitive intelligence between the
engine and throttle mechanisms."
1016 Industries says the power upgrades have an
optional app that can be used to adjust settings on the fly. This allows owners
to make their own adjustments or fully disengage the performance modifications
altogether.
The company declined to say how fast the upgraded
Sport Series is but the 570 S Coupe can accelerate from 0-60 mph in 3.1 seconds
thanks to its twin-turbo 3.8-liter V8 engine that develops 562 hp and 600 Nm of torque.
