(from G-Power Press
Release) G-POWER is proud to present one of the world’s
most powerful BMW X6 M models. The X6 M modified by G-POWER boasts a
TYPHOON S body kit, a titanium exhaust system and an output of 725
hp.
The TYPHOON S body kit, derived from the TYPHOON wide-body kit,
enables an increase in cooling performance of up to 15% for the 4.4l
V8 twin-turbo power unit in the BMW X6 M, paving the way for an
increase of 170 hp in base output, taking it to a formidable 725 hp.
G-POWER X6 M TYPHOON S
The first thing that
stands out about the G-POWER X6 M TYPHOON S is the redesigned front
skirt that completely replaces the original part. Designed to
emulate the G-POWER TYPHOON wide-body kit, the front skirt with
large air intakes delivers the characteristic aesthetic of the BMW
X6 M. The carefully honed profile also facilitates a reduction of
aerodynamic lift on the front axle. Another factor in the balanced
look of the X6 TYPHOON S is the G-POWER bonnet made entirely from
carbon-fibre. Equipped with a central Venturi-effect engine bay vent
for cooling while in motion and two lateral ABS grilles for
stationary ventilation, it ensures improved dissipation from the
engine compartment of hot air generated by the two turbochargers.
The G-POWER add-ons to the standard sills provide a visual
transition between the wheel arches, which are filled with forged
3-part G-POWER SILVERSTONE RS aluminium wheels measuring 11x23 and
12x23 inches (also available in 22-inch). When it comes to tyres,
G-POWER sticks resolutely to 315/25 ZR 23 high-performance rubber
from its development partner Michelin. They deliver optimum traction
and sporty handling that is further enhanced by G-POWER sports
springs and a stance lowered by 30 mm.
The package is rounded off at the back of the G-POWER BMW X6 M
TYPHOON S by the diffuser made entirely of carbon fibre. It provides
the perfect frame for the 4 x 125 mm tail pipes on the G-POWER
titanium exhaust system, which are also made from carbon-fibre.
In keeping with the dynamic look of the BMW X6 M TYPHOON S, G-POWER
also offers a suitably impressive power increase to 725 hp. Thanks
to the enlarged air intakes in the front skirt and the vents in the
bonnet, there is an increase in the flow of cold air to the water
and oil coolers at the front of the vehicle. This improves their
cooling performance by around 15% each, forming the basis for a
thermally stable power increase using one the electronic
optimization techniques developed by G-POWER to modify the engine
mapping, including removal of the top speed limiter. On the exhaust
side, a full stainless steel G-POWER system (also available in
titanium) delivers the necessary reduction in exhaust gas pressure.
Alongside the use of sports catalytic converters, this is largely
attributable to the flow-optimised G-POWER exhaust manifold.
Optimised connecting channels also run between the turbochargers and
cylinder heads to minimise pressure and shock losses. The outcome is
an additional 170 hp, taking the total output to a formidable 725 hp
at 6,000 r/min and 890 Nm of torque as of 1,500 r/min. The maximum
torque is electronically limited in order to avoid overloading the
standard transmission. In combination with a reinforced
transmission, a maximum torque measuring an immense 1,000 Nm can be
realised.
The enormous power potential of the G-POWER modified BMW V8
twin-turbo power unit imbue the X6 M with performance levels that
catapult it into the very upper echelons of its class. The sprint to
100 km/h takes just 4.2 seconds, while top speed is more than 300
km/h.
If required, G-POWER can finish the interior to individual
specifications with handmade leather and Alcantara upholstery.
The TYPHOON S aerodynamic package is available starting at €
6,990.00 (net) excl. installation at G-POWER in Autenzell. Pricing
for the 23-inch G-POWER SILVERSTONE RS wheel set with MICHELIN tyres
is € 8,865.55 (net) and the G-POWER power increase to 725 hp incl.
full stainless steel exhaust system and modified connection to the
turbochargers starts at € 13,526.05 (net) excl. installation
(titanium exhaust system optional).
