They power rating is conservative.......... from experience!

I have driven the SKII with Akrapovic exhaust. Simply stunning. Brutal and sober at the same time. A true work of art.

One guy drove it then jumped into an E60 M5 and came back saying the E60 felt 'pedestrian'....

nice M3.
but silly explanation: unlike a turbo engine, response is better here.
what?
the world go for turbo engines: porsche, some of the mercedes, bmw m cars, audi, saab

are they stupid? No. Turbo engines make more torque low down.

G Power ceo confused response with power.

It is an excuse, as their centrifugal supercharger cannot make boost at lower rpms.

The same M3, if turboed, will be much faster than the supercharged version.

Gustav - what was the performance figures? Did You say 6.2 sec from 100 - 200 km/h?!

What is your thoughts of ESS vs. G-power kompressor kits?

Funny thing is that the power is delivered so smooth: you really dont feel that it is so fast. I was shocked when I saw the V-box result!
