Aresing-based tuning specialist G-Power has released these images of a customer’s E92 BMW M3 Coupe, with a nice surprise beneath its hood.

The owner wanted a substantial increase in power, so opted for the Tornado RS conversion, which sees the 4.0-litre V8 taken apart and reconstructed with a new crankshaft and Mahle pistons, taking its displacement up from 4.0 to 4.6-litres.

The company’s SK III ASA T1-723 supercharger kit was then added, along with a carbon fibre air box and titanium exhaust system, resulting in a monumental 537 kW (720 hp). Those changes produce a 0-100 km/h time of just 3.7 seconds and a new top speed of 330 km/h (205.5 mph). Other upgrades include a Clubsport adjustable coilover kit and G-Power’s 20-inch Silverstone Diamond alloy wheels wrapped in Michelin rubber.

Visually, the M3 Coupe wears a lower front spoiler, and a replacement bonnet and boot lid constructed from carbon fibre.
