G-POWER Hurricane the „over the top M5“ – eye catcher at the G-POWER display from our importer GAE at the Middle East Motor show in Dubai.
“What a good looking BMW” is the beginning line of a lot of respectful comments made by the majority of the exhibition’s visitors.
But he G-POWER Hurricane is not just looks. When the hood is opened the Hurrican baffles the technic enthusiast with a high tech, almost beyond state of the art Bi-compressor system, that transfers this family sedan in a true high performance sports car, without the compromises those kind of cars usual demand.
High performance without the need for compromises what sort ever; that is what the Hurricane stands for!
It is a dream come true for everybody who has been looking for a high performance sports car capable of transporting up to 5 persons, usable as a daily driver and powerful enough to smoke the 100 km/h limit in less then 4.2 second when ever it is demanded.
"I could feel it; there is still more potential than 350km/h, I`m sure of that" originally stated by professional race-driver Wolfgang Kaufmann (24 hours Bahrain) doing test drives on south Italian Nardo race track.
Kaufmann, as racing professional, mainly driving on "true" sports cars, like GT1 Porsche or Ferrari, "could not believe it" when he made his first laps on the Nardo race circuit with the G-POWER Hurricane with ASA V10 Bi-compressor.

G-POWER shows its decades of experience with this BI-compressor system based on the BMW M5 V10. In 2008 the tuner will celebrate its 25th anniversary and the enlargement of its potential since it is now cooperating with ASA, the leading manufacturer of radial supercharging systems working on the highly efficient centrifugal technology.
Now superchargers are designed and manufactured under one roof. ASA has the status of an original equipment manufacturer for i.e. BMW ALPINA, Lorinser, RUF-Porsche and many others.
The G-POWER Bi-compressor for the V10 is available from the 1st Quarter of 2008 on. To be seen as the answer for every enthusiast in the world who likes it to motivate himself with every new ride on the HURRICANE!
For all M5 or M6 drivers it’s worthwhile to start right now with its anticipation! G-POWER turns your V10 in the absolute super sports car. For whole family purpose and for most fun available. That’s for sure!

"360 km/h are realistic”
… my feeling told me it could go faster. That I know for sure!” A quotation from professional race driver Wolfgang Kaufmann, better know under his nick name “Piranha”, which he owns since 2001 “because he doesn’t give up “biting” his competitors until he finishes first.”
Kaufmann, a passionate fulltime race driver, regularly driving „true“ GT1 race cars from Porsche, Ferrari and Co for his living, ”was deeply impressed” when first driving the G-POWER M5 V10 Hurricane in Nardo with its all new BI-Kompressor system.
“The potential of the Hurricane is unbelievable. The way this car accelerates from 250 km/h to 320 km/h is simply breathtaking. Even compared to a GT1 racer, the Hurricane doesn’t have to fear the comparison. Based on my experience as a race car driver I can tell that this car can go faster than 360 km/h! During our test drive here in Nardo we collected a lot of useful information that we will use in the further development of the Hurricane.” (Quotation Kaufmann)
Unfortunately due to a short cut in one of the many electronic control units, by the way an untouched standard BMW part, we weren’t able to show the cars true potential when “the clock was counting”, like at the pre test runs with Continental high-speed tyres, where we passed the 350 km/h limit easily.
Furthermore we were the only team at the Continental “Highspeed Event” in Nardo, that travelled the complete distance to Nardo (in our case 1.500 km) on the road with the competition car, which shows clearly the reliability of our concept! So the officially recorded 321 km/h top speed hurt a bit…
But the gained experiences of our Nardo adventure tell us that we are „on the right track“. Our concept is right and we are highly motivated to implement the gained knowledge, so that we can provide our customers the same impressive ride on the road for their daily drive, that Wolfgang Kaufmann already enjoyed on the test track.
So if you are a BMW M5 or M6 driver you can start to look forward, since we will transfer your V10 in a true high performance sports car. Of course fully capable to meet your “family needs”.
Last but not least: Safty, reliability and suitability for daily use – for ASA superchargers nothing out of the ordinary, proofed by ALPINA cars for years.
ASA supercharges and G-POWER a combination that you don’t want to miss.

This year, the 13th Conti-Tuning-Day 2006 on the Contidrom – test area in the North of Hannover was themed “tuners – and their refined cars”. A lot of people with distinction in the Scene were represented, from Abt (VW/Audi), via Brabus, Lorinser (Mercedes), CDT (Mitsubishi), Heico (Volvo) up to Oettinger (VW/Audi).
In the morning, the weather first was rainy, at the noontime it cleared off.
For the guild of the BMW refiners, we status-accordantly appeared with our dark black 750 G7. Our complete conversion represented itself in a fascinating, new G-POWER HIGHLINE aerodynamic package made of hybride plastics in GRP – carbon/kevlar reinforced composite. .As contact protection for front and rear bumper, we attached attractive full carbon optic completions.
Our technicians firstly optimized the factory engine by a motronic adjustment, and then in combination with a complete 4-trim sport exhaust system (cat-back) with optimized back pressure and air conduct was brought to the final output of more than 380hp (series 340hp). Thanks to this – by the way cost-saving – fine tuning the rather unobtrusive family vehicle turned into a very sporty sport machine acting with fastest push.
Our suspension modificatins (spring strut suspension) with 60mm lowering alround, massively contributed to chasing the heavy vehicle around the narrow track almost fleet-footed with increased safety feeling! In doing so, our technicians succeeded in keeping the comfort impression close to series. But without the “standardly” disturbing, somehow spongy upswinging effect at quick curve changes. Our “ship” laid as the proverbial “board
A giant part at this had our tremendous 22 inch G-POWER Styling III (limited edition). The decreased „unsprung“ masses of this 16-spoke super light-weight (by 40 per cent less than standard) provided under all circumstances an intensive road contact, even where this road was “pants” (at Contidrom deliberately!).
Totally 30 readers of AutoBILD Sportscars had an experience-rich day amongst the tuners and enjoyed ACCOMPANYING drives in the tuned bolides, also in the both steep turns of the Contidrom.

The attractive G-POWER G5 V10 on M-Basis – in white colour as it is loved by Japanese people – was photographed by us shortly in April at the SIS 2006 – the special fair for luxury and tuning in Tokyo.
There, we showed this new highlight of our design and technology team. At the booth of the leading Japanese tuning enterprise, the BOND group, accompanied by well-known tuners as TECHART (Porsche refiner).
Our snow-white creation was obviously well accepted, was constantly crowded by audience and a treasured motive for the photographers. Our high-tech engine G5 V10 had to moderate its 600 hp. But our forged wheels Styling III Pro in 21 inches (limited edition), handcrafted, super-light (40 per cent lighter than series) had an attracting effect to the technology-enthusiasts. The whole power moderated by huge, especially developed G400 high—performance brakes. The optic highlight and visual visitor attraction finally was our full-carbon refined G-POWER HIGHLINE aerodynamic design, manufactured by our subsidiary GFKtec.

In time and on occasion of the trade fair in Seoul, G-POWER KOREA introduced the G5 EVOLUTION, based on the E39 M5 5.0l with a performance upgrade to 470hp. As a matter of fact, the vehicle was equipped with the complete EVOLUTION spoiler package (front- and rear bumper, sideskirts). Especially for the G-POWER Daytona II alloy wheels in 19”, the corresponding wheel widenings were mounted for the extreme lowering (G5 RS suspension) of 70 mm, in order to provide sufficient space of the 245/275 wheels. The G-POWER exhaust system was installed as export version in medium sound in connection with the G-POWER racing catalysts. With a V-MAX release, the performance result of the modified M5 is amounting to 312 km/h.
