SpeedART Develops TITAN EVO bodykit for the Porsche Cayenne

At this week's Essen Motor Show, SpeedART will present a new bodykit called the TITAN EVO, which will be available for all second-generation Cayenne models, including the hybrid. In addition, there are also going to be a host of other mods available, such as mechanical and interior upgrades.

The TITAN EVO bodykit adds new front and rear bumpers, widened wheel arches and lowered side skirts. Furthermore, the German tuner replaced the standard exhaust with a twin-pipe system featuring a sound control on the hybrid and the Cayenne Turbo-based versions. Engineers didn't forget about the Cayenne Diesel, which can be also fitted with a sport exhaust system, albeit without the sound switch.

The Germans really went overboard with the wheels, offering 23-inch forged alloys, shod in ultra-wide 315/25 tires. They used special forging techniques, which make the over-sized alloys lighter than their cast 21-inch counterparts.

If more power is your game, SpeedART offers an extensive range of upgrades. Starting with the diesel model, the V6's output is lifted by 50 hp and 70 Nm (52 lb-ft).

As previously reported, the Cayenne S Hybrid gets +70 hp and +50 Nm (37 lb-ft), for a maximum output of 450 hp and 630 Nm (465 lb-ft). It accelerates from standstill to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 5.9 seconds, same as the V8-powered Cayenne S.

Last but not least, the Turbo can be ordered with 550, 570 or 600 horsepower.

Clients who specified the stock Cayenne with air suspension can opt for a speedART electronic lowering module, while the conventional suspension can be upgraded with sport springs and coil-overs.

By consulting with the customers, speedART says it can modify the interior of the car to match almost any wish. But to give them an idea of what can be done, the car displayed at the Essen Motor Show will have sport seats with carbon fiber shells and special interior colors, alongside a rear-seat entertainment system with integrated iPad and iPhone docking station.

SpeedART Powers Up the New Porsche Cayenne SUV Hybrid

What's the point of buying a hybrid vehicle if you're going to tune it and consequently, lose on fuel economy? Well, even though some will beg to differ, SpeedART's answer to that question when it comes to the new Porsche Cayenne Hybrid, is more power when needed without affecting the SUV's capability to run in pure electric operation, in which case, both CO2 emissions and fuel consumption are down to zero.

The German tuning firm's program for the Cayenne Hybrid bumps output on the 3.3-liter supercharged V6 TSI from 333HP to 407HP, thus increasing the petrol engine and electric motor system's combined output from 380HP to 450HP. The 0-100km/h (62mph) sprint time drops from 6.5 sec to 6.0 sec, while top speed rises by 10km/h to 252km/h (157mph).

SpeedART's tuning proposal for the hybrid version of the Cayenne also includes a sport exhaust system with a nifty sound switch and 2x100 mm tail pipes, along with new 22-inch forged alloys that the company says weigh the same as cast 21'' wheels so fuel consumption remains unaffected by the change. The alloys are wrapped in 275/30 ZR22 tires at the front and 315/30 ZR22 at the back.

The company also offers a special decals finished in light-blue for the exterior as well as a lowering kit module for vehicle's equipped with the air-ride system, and lowering springs for model's with the conventional suspension.

Interior upgrades are limited to a new turbo pressure gauge mounted on the dashboard and a grey finish for the rev counter on the instrument panel.

Geneva Show: Speedart's BTR-II EVO is a Kitted-Out 650HP Porsche 911... What's New?

German tuner SpeedART will be showing off (in Geneva, where else?) a kit for the current facelifted 911 Turbo. That's the one with the 3.8 liter boxer which somehow finds a way to drop 500 horsepower of wrath on Planet Earth's tarmac.

SpeedART's kit is the second generation of their Bi-Turbo Racer (hence the BTR-II nomenclature), it makes 650-horsepower, and it plays host to an Evolution body kit (that would be the EVO).

First things first: that 150-horse boost in power (and +150 Nm of twist) is a direct result of the new turbos, intercoolers, headers, catalytic converters, an exhaust system, and, of course, all the computer work necessary to make sure the car doesn't spit pretty pieces of its engine all over the Autobahn.

SpeedART claims a 3.2 second rip to 100 km/h (62 mph) and a top speed of 330 km/h (205 mph).

The body kit has all the standard fare (bumpers, skirts, lips, wings, and all the other add-ons), which - as usual - is there so you don't get yourself airborne on the way to the top. It rolls on 20-inch LSC Forged wheels that are 8.5 inches wide up front and 12 inches wide (that's one American ruler) in back.

Also, sportified suspension is probably standard on the BTR, whereas custom interiors are always available as long as your wallet is deep, your spouse forgiving, and children potty-trained.

SpeedART Creates the 2010 Porsche 911 Turbo-Based BTR II with 580HP

The new Porsche 911 Turbo is one of the fastest production cars in the market, but that wasn't enough for SpeedART as the German tuner decided to up the ante with the introduction of BTR II 580. Thanks to the reprogrammed ECU and a new sport exhaust system that comes with a sound control switch, SpeedART managed to squeeze another 80 ponies and 120Nm of torque from the 3.8-liter turbocharged flat-six boosting output to 580HP.

That's good enough for a 0-100km/h (62mph) sprint time of 3.2 seconds and a top speed of 325km/h or 202 mph for the PDK double-clutch model. The power kit is priced at €9,890.

And if that's not satisfactory, the German tuner said that it is also preparing a more powerful engine kit with 650HP.

The engine mods are complemented by new 20-inch alloy wheels with high-performance tires size 245/30 up front and 325/25 at the back for a total cost of €6,640 while buyers may also choose to upgrade the BTR II 580's suspension.

SpeedART also offers a bodykit that consists of a front apron, side skirts, rear diffuser, rooftop spoiler and a rear wing plus Porsche 911 GT3-style stickers for €5,100.

The package can be rounded off with numerous interior upgrades including sport seats with carbon shell in leather, alcantara or special design variations, a sport steering wheel with F1 shift paddles for PDK and carbon fiber decorative trim.

SpeedART's Porsche Panamera PS9 with up to 650HP Revealed in the Flesh

A couple of weeks ago we told you about SpeedART's new Porsche Panamera PS9 that will be unveiled at the Essen Motor Show at the end of November. Now, the German tuning house has released the first live photos of a Porsche Panamera fitted with its PS9 sport package that bundles aerodynamic add-ons and interior mods with performance upgrades and four different power kits for the Turbo model.

For the Panamera's cabin, SpeedART offers a new three-spoke leather steering with F1-shift paddles that's available in two sizes (340 and 365mm) with the option of aluminium, wood or carbon fiber inlays, colored stiches on the door panels and seats, instrument backgrounds in various colors, specific floor mats and real carbon fiber decorative trim in numerous shads.

For the time being, the German firm's engine kit is limited to the Panamera Turbo. Upgrades include larger tubochargers, sport air filter, a sport exhaust system and a reprogrammed ECU that help bump output to 520, 550, 600 or 650 horsepower and up to 890 Nm (656.5 lb-ft) of torque.

The 650HP version is said to accelerate from standstill to 100km/h (62mph) in 3.5 seconds an top over 320km/h (200 mph).

To ensure that the Panamera comes to a halt, SpeedART offers an upgraded brake system with modular 380 mm discs and 6 piston brake calipers.
