G-Power has just revealed to most powerful, and mad we might add, BMW 1 Series M ever created, which is called the G1 V8 HURRICANE. Why mad? Because it outputs no less than 600 hp! Its name says it all. The G-Power BMW 1 Series M G1 V8 HURRICANE comes with the same V8 engine and DCT transmission as the M3 E92. Of course, this is not enough for getting 600 hp. G-Power also gave their new BMW 1 Series M V8 a supercharger kit, which increased the output of the pocket rocket from 420 hp to 600 hp and 580 Nm of torque. And they managed to accomplish this with just 0.5 bar (relative) boost. The maximum power is accessed between the 5,000 rpm mark and the redline. G-Power says that one of the main issues with this conversion was providing the engine with enough air. For this, they had to extensively modify the 4.0 liter V8 engine of the M3.
The BMW 1-Series M G1 V8 HURRICANE comes equipped with complete aluminum cast air box for the supercharger, a racing air filter, a water circulated boost cooling system, a large water-to-air intercooler and 8 lightweight integral resonance induction pipes. The G1 V8 HURRICANE also comes with a handmade, stainless steel exhaust system.
Here come the performance figures. The G1 V8 HURRICANE 1-Series M is able to get from zero to 200 km/h in just 12.7 seconds and to reach a top speed of 330 km/h. This makes it the fastest BMW 1 series in the world.
The equipment list of the G1 V8 HURRICANE includes 20-inch alloys with Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires, Mov'it brakes with carbon ceramic discs, and a KW suspension system. The car also comes with a carbon fiber bonnet and a new boot lip. At the interior, the G1 V8 HURRICANE features leather and Alcantara upholstery.
G-Power announced it's going to build only 30 G1 V8 HURRICANE units, but they did not mention its price.
