G-Power boosts the E46 BMW M3 to 450 horsepower, faster than new M3

The German tuner G-Power has created a new performance package for the BMW M3 E46, one of the best Ms built by BMW.

To achieve more power, G-Power used a high-tech supercharger from ASA Engineering, more specifically, the ASA TM I 20. This enables BMW's 3.2-liter straight -six to produce 450 hp and 450 Nm of torque (up from 343 hp/365 Nm). The extra 107 hp help the E46 M3 run from 0 to 124 mph(220 km/h) in only 14.7 seconds, which beats the 15.8 second posted by BMW's 420 hp V8-powered M3 E92.

To handle all that new power, the E46 M3 runs on 20-inch alloy wheels fitted to Michelin Pilot Sport tires, 245/30 ZR 20 at the front and 285/25 ZR 20 at the back. Then the M3 E46's top speed increases to more than 300 km/h (186 mph).

Other optional equipment includes a high performance stainless steel muffler and a continuously height-adjustable G-POWER coil-over suspension with nine selectable settings for bound and outbound.
