The 992 generation reveal of the Porsche 911 Turbo is imminent. Porsche is giving journalists rides in test mules so they are pretty much just wrapping up formalities. The 2021 911 Turbo S is expected to provide 641 horsepower and 590 lb-ft of torque according to various reports. ...Published on 11-22-2019 08:08 AM
As per the usual with Tesla, we have a lot of hype and little substance. It seems Elon Musk has his fingers in every cookie jar today and Tesla is not focused. Maybe they will deliver what you see here (along with their Roadster and increased Model 3 production) but this Tesla Cyber Truck is going to generate some controversy. ...Published on 11-22-2019 07:41 AM
Way back in 2010 BimmerBoost published an article titled, 'There is Only One, M1.' In that article the explanation as to why BMW protected the M1 moniker (why the 1M exists) and why the M1 standalone M model was such a milestone for BMW M were provided. ...Published on 11-22-2019 07:21 AM
The new Supra is stealing all the headlines despite not being a true Supra successor. Nissan has a chance here to bring something to market in the segment that not only is more fun to drive but a true successor to one of the brands' iconic sports cars. ...Published on 11-21-2019 07:22 AM
Being able to handle a McLaren 720S is the measure of a fast car today. This McLaren 720S certainly is fast but it is also not a stock example as it is tuned with software and downpipes. Output is claimed to be a relatively modest ~740 rear wheel horsepower. ...Published on 11-21-2019 07:12 AM
This seems to be coming rather quickly, eh? Especially after the announcement that Maserati and Ferrari would no longer share motors going forward. Maserati appears eager to step out of Ferrari's shadow and show what they are capable of. ...Published on 11-21-2019 06:45 AM
Remember back in 2018 when composite (carbon fiber) connecting rods debuted at SEMA? They retailed for $18,000.00 and the idea was for a drag racing team to buy a set as it would cut down on costs eventually and be much more reliable. ...Published on 11-14-2019 06:44 PM
Magazines stretch the truth in articles for sales just as many car sites put up clickbait for traffic. This appears to be the real deal though so we might as well get used to it. It sure is hard to love that face no matter how often you see it. ...Published on 11-14-2019 06:42 PM
The Mercedes-AMG GT R Pro is an even hotter version of the already stellar C190 AMG GT R. It laps the Nurburgring in 7:04.6 minutes and that is what it is built to do: set absolutely spectacular laptimes. ...Published on 11-14-2019 06:25 PM
Dodson obviously has some of the strongest dual clutch transmissions in the aftermarket but what exactly does it take to get a Nissan GT-R dual clutch transmission to hold over 1000 horsepower and potentially 1000+ lb-ft of torque at the wheels? ...Published on 11-14-2019 04:48 PM
Finally! Remember when Dinan was acquired by Performance Driven Brands back in early 2018? Then remember when Performance Driven Brands was restructured by Sentinel Capital Partners? Well both Dinan and APR now work under the same halo and even out of the same facility in Opelika, Alabama. ...Published on 11-14-2019 12:21 AM
This is really what we wanted to see out of the RS5 out of the box. Speaking of which, adding the JB4 tuning box to the equation gets the B9 generation Audi RS5 performing much more like AudiBoost expected it to. ...Published on 11-14-2019 12:16 AM
Well, here it finally is! Apologies to our readers for taking so long but setting up such a test is not easy. The blessing in disguise is that a new option made the comparison and that option is made out of inconel and it is an engineering collaboration between Mimo Technik and SPW (Specialty Precision Welding). ...Published on 11-13-2019 11:45 PM
TTE (The Turbo Engineers) are known for solid hybrid upgrades that are reliable. Their products work as evidenced by their BMW F82 M4 running their TTE740+ S55 hybrid turbo upgrade with oversized inlets. ...Ferrari launches 2020 Roma GT with 612 horsepower twin turbo V8 and 8-speed dual clutch transmission

Where did this come from? Ferrari seemingly pulled a new GT car out of nowhere. This is a vehicle that shares the California T wheelbase and an F154 twin turbo V8 variant so apparently the idea was to make a GT 2+2 coupe version of the California T or Portofino platform. ...
Is this it? 2021 BMW G80 M3 magazine...
