The G-POWER X5 Typhoon RS with 625 Horses

g-power-x5-typhoon-rs-1

G-POWER had an X5 Typhoon in place a few months back and that too was a powerful machine capable of producing 525 hp but then it seemingly got annoyed with BMW exceeding that power for the standard X5 M confirmed at 555 hp. In response to this development, G-Power has now come up with an even more powerful variant of the X5 — the X5 Typhoon RS that churns 625hp with a maximum torque of 700Nm from an entirely overhauled 4.8-litre V8. The impetus came from a G-POWER SK III RS supercharger with a 1.0 bar boost pressure. With these additions, the X5 can hit the 100Km/h mark in 4.5 seconds and tops it out at 285km/h. This fierce engine is mated with a 6-speed automatic transmission all functioning on an xDrive AWD system. You even get some trendy accessories like a design speedometer, a sports steering wheel and aluminum bits.

Body Kits For Real Enthusiasts

Body kits are an extremely popular modification amongst car enthusiasts. Available for virtually any car, body kits can completely alter the style of a car, often beyond recognition.

For people who are really into their cars, who want their car to stand out from the rest, fitting a body kit may be an ideal solution. The range of kits on sale is vast, and caters for 90% of all makes and models, from Alfa Romeo to Volvo. For most models, you should find that you have a wide selection to choose from. For popular models such as the Ford Focus, Citroen Saxo and Volkswagen Golf, you may find that you have up to 100 body kits at your disposal, therefore whatever your preference, you should be able to find something to suit your individual style.

If you’re considering re-styling your car, you ultimately have to make one key decision: Do you want a bodykit that will entirely alter the appearance of your vehicle, or are you looking for something more subtle?

For mild alterations to your car you may want to consider an extension kit. Also known as a skirt or valance kit, these items generally consist of body extensions, rather than complete replacement bumpers and side skirts. They are usually cheaper to buy than a full body kit, and are easy to fit, with or without the assistance of a bodyshop.

For more serious options, you’ll be looking at removing your existing front bumper, rear bumper and side skirts, and replacing them with a full kit. Again, your options are virtually limitless, including body kits that come complete with wide arch extensions, spoilers, sport grilles and bonnets. This type of kit is particularly popular amongst Japanese car owners, partly because this type of kit was made more popular with the release of films such as The Fast And The Furious and others of that genre.

Whichever route you choose, remember to work out how you’re going to get the parts finished, painted and fitted to your car. Many people are able to do this on their driveways at home, however most will require the services of a professional.
