Posted 26th July, 2012 in BMW | Leave a comment

Following on from its MH5 S-Biturbo program, Geilenkirchen-based tuner Manhart Racing GmbH has done the same for BMW’s 1 Series M coupe.

The company’s Stage 3 package includes remapped ECU software, an upgraded intercooler and oil cooler, a carbon fibre air intake and ducting and a replacement exhaust system. Those changes see output rise from 246 kW (335 hp) and 450 Nm (332 lb/ft) of torque to 347 kW (465 hp) and 600 Nm (443 lb/ft).

Underneath, there’s a KW coilover suspension kit and 20-inch AC Schnitzer Type V Forged alloy wheels wrapped in Continental Sport Contact 5 tyres, while bodywork additions include a carbon fibre front lip, vented hood, mirror casings, trunk spoiler and rear diffuser. Inside the cabin, Manhart fits its MHR-embossed BMW Performance bucket seats.
