German car tuning company G-Power delivered the power with this BMW M6, breaking the world record for fastest sedan at a top speed of 370 km/h or 231 mph. Naming it the Hurricane CS, this is the fastest BMW coupe in the world with a powerful twin supercharged V10 engine delivering 750 hp and 590 ft-lbs of torque. To get these astounding numbers out of a BMW, the engineers at G-Power had to install belt driven ASA T1-316 superchargers, and forged pistons from Mahle were used to reduce compression. The pistons from Mahle are exactly the same weight as the stock pistons, however significantly stronger to handle the extra boost from the superchargers. To optimize the V10 engine, a remapping of the ECU was needed for the superchargers.

Undergoing a complete make over, this Porsche Carrera GT has been modified by the Austrian car tuning company Koenigseder. Nicknaming it the Devil, Koenigseder was able to give this Carrera a nice aggressive look with a new body kit. The kit you see here is a completely unique body kit that transforms this Porsche, starting with new bumpers all around, and ending with air intakes coming from the roof. It is still a Porsche Carrera GT under all the exterior mods, and it still holds its performance numbers under the hood. But if you look at the fancy additions to the exterior, you can tell this kit from Koenigseder doesn’t come cheap, and we have the prices for you.

Japanese car tuning company Fabulous usually customizes luxury sedans in the JDM market, however they went with the exotic Ferrari F430 this time and I’d say they did a fabulous job. With most of the vehicles they modify, exterior styling such as body kits, large diameter wheels, and suspension including hydraulics is their specialty. The kit you see here consists of fiber reinforced and carbon fiber pieces installed, and is available for any Ferrari F430 ’04 and up. It includes a new front bumper with spoiler attached, side skirts, a new rear wing with diffuser installed underneath, and also custom fitted exhaust ports.

The exterior won’t be as impressive as a new supercar but this car’s interior is awesome. With new gauges, new steering wheel and sport pedals everyone will feel like a race driver in this car. But the best part just starts: In car Entertainment made from a lot of components like: Alpine DVA-9860E DVD head unit, a universal remote controller Alpine RUE-4191 DVD and an 8″ LCD. Everywhere in the car you can see Boston Acoustics S60 speakers and the owner also installed 2 amps: one from Oxygen Audio with 800W and one from Phoenix Gold with 200W. [click to continue…]
