With a maximum airstream volume of up to 1,200 kg per hour per cylinder bank the compressors are designed for an even higher power output than the limited boost pressure of 0.4 bars featured at the M6 HURRICANE convertible. The ASA charger is also small, which allows G-POWER to install two of them in the tight confines of the M6 engine bay. Contrary to conventional mechanical chargers that waste a large portion of the additional power on being driven themselves, the ASA compressor has an efficiency rate of up to 80 percent. The system uses one belt-driven ASA T1-12 compressor for each cylinder bank. To achieve the desired increase in power output of 128 hp / 94 kW for the fast-revving engine that normally produces 507 hp / 373 kW, G-POWER has developed a high-tech supercharging system. At the heart of the high-performance convertible is a five-liter V10 engine with G-POWER BI-Kompressor system that delivers 635 hp / 467 kW. The 335-km/h G-POWER M6 HURRICANE is based on the latest BMW M6. One of the world's fastest and most powerful convertibles is made by G-POWER. Full details can be found in the press release after the jump. M6 owners can drop off their car at G-Power's German headquarters or can order a fully assembled car starting at a mere 183,000 Euros. Not one to forget that appearance matters, G-Power also provides a new front and rear fascia, rocker panels, and carbon fiber rear diffuser along with 21-inch wheels that make room for a 15-inch brake system up front. This is good for a 4.5 second sprint to 60 mph and a top speed of nearly 200 mph. Behold the G-Power M6 Hurricane! While the twin blowers are set for lower boost, only 6 psi compared to the M5's 10 psi, the M6 still produces a healthy 6 rpm and 469 lb-ft torque 6300 rpm. With the BMW M6 packing the same 5.0-liter V10, it was only a matter of time before it received the same treatment. After all, it's twin-supercharged V10 produced nearly 50% more power than stock and it had a top speed of 211 mph, which G-Power claims to be faster than any other street legal Bimmer.
