2013 G-Power BMW M6 F13






The G-POWER program for the BMW M6 F13 touches all key components and lets the nifty BMW M6 appear even more sporty and beautiful and makes it, last but not least, a lot faster. In order to implement this target the G-POWER engineering department has transferred its experience from the area of supercharging to the turbocharged BMW 4.4l V8 engine. After all, the ASA supercharger used for the G-POWER supercharger systems is closely related to the turbochargers featured by BMW, since both units us a centrifugal compressor to build up boost.

The basis for the electronic output increase is the fact that G-POWER, in contrast to the manufacturer, does not use standard software full of compromises but an individual solution for the engine. Among others, the parameters for the amount of fuel and the ignition timing are modified depending on the product variance of the engine. Furthermore the boost level is moderately increased, as well.

However, gone are the days in which the development of an electronic power output increase has been finished at this point. G-POWER has made almost the same invest in time, money and manpower in developing supporting measures to the power output increase itself, with a particular focus on the transmission. Based on the competence and knowledge coming from the up to 800 hp strong BMW M5 HURRICANE versions, G-POWER has managed to limit the torque figures during the shifting process and so reduces the stress for the transmission. This effort shows the difference in quality of the G-POWER electronic power output increase when compared to the competition. Just pushing the output fingers is something many can do; G-POWER is providing a well balanced, high-quality package for the power output increase of the BMW M6.

In a first step the G-POWER Bi-Tronik III pushes the BMW M6�s standard output of 560 hp / 680 Nm to a more suitable 640 hp and 777 Nm of torque. Naturally the performance figures benefit from this output increase, as well. The figure from stand still to 100 km/h is now just 3,8 seconds and the top speed is 315 km/h.

Apart from the power output increase itself, G-POWER has taken care of the sound of the BMW M6 F13, as well. The G-POWER Titanium exhaust system, incl. Titanium link pipes with resonators starting from the down pipe catalysts, gives the BMW M6 a deep, throaty sound that turns heads but is at now time annoying and at the same time saves approx. 12 kg compared to the stock exhaust system. The G-POWER exhaust system is available with four Titanium or Carbon Tailpipes with a diameter of 100 mm each.

Concerning the suspension at first one will notice the 21 inch G-POWER SILVERSTONE RS forged wheels, wrapped with tyres from the G-POWER�s technology partner MICHELIN in the dimensions 265/30 ZR 21 and 305/25 ZR 21. The double spokes, typical for the G-POWER design, highlight the elegant design of the new BMW M6. Further improvement of the road handling is realized through the continuously height-adjustable G-POWER coil-over suspension GM6-RS with nine selectable settings each for bound and rebound.

Of course the negative acceleration is in the focus of G-POWER, as well. Even without output increase, the standard braking system may lose brake force when pushed to the limit, accompanied by a moving braking point, the so called fading effect. The perfect cure against the fading effect is a G-POWER Braking System. With its six brake pistons and 420 mm brake disc diameter for the front axle the G-POWER Braking System enables a substantially higher brake force than the standard braking system. At the same time, the heat generated due to the braking process can be dissipated more effectively. The G-POWER brake package is completed by brake pads with a larger pad area, higher friction rate as well as metal-coated brake lines. With this set-up, the G-POWER Braking System always provides maximum brake force and the braking point remains precise in any case. In addition the G-POWER ceramic braking system reduces the unsprung mass by 50% percent, compared to a system with steel brake discs. Accordingly the cornering and road handling is improved significantly.

The cost for the 21 inch G-POWER SILVERSTONE RS complete wheel set incl. MICHELIN Pilot Sport tyres in the dimension 265/30 ZR 21 and 305/25 ZR 21 is 8.325,00 �, the G-POWER coil-over suspension GM6-RS is 2.179,83,00 �, the G-POWER Ceramic braking system for the front axle is 14.460,50 Euro and the G-POWER Titanium exhaust system is 5.985,71 �. The output increase with the help of the G-POWER BI-TRONIK III is 5.200,00 � including the individual adjustment of to the specific customer car.
