BMW M3 G-Power Tornado tested in UAE

German tuner G-Power is offering a pure performance upgrade for the BMW M3 called the Tornado, which is essentially a supercharger for the V8. Apparently the G-Power M3 Tornado was tested in the UAE for hot-weather durability during development.

The G-Power Tornado supercharger tacks on to the M3’s 4.0-litre V8 to take horsepower from the standard 420 hp to a tuned 500 hp, and raising the torque from 400 Nm to 480 Nm.

The 0-200 kph acceleration for the standard M3 is apparently 15.8 seconds, and the Tornado kit reduces that to 13.4 seconds, with a top speed of more than 320 kph.

G-Power also offers their own 20-inch SILVERSTONE DIAMOND wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport tyres, 255/30 ZR 20 at the front and 295/25 ZR 20 at the rear.

Also available is a sport muffler for a louder noise, while on the inside, a G-Power speedometre reading up to 360 kph, carbon-fibre trim, special leather finish and an aluminium pedal set complete the package. The supercharger is also badged and stamped with a serial number.

G-Power has dealers in Abu Dhabi and other Emirates.
