For achieving these power specs, the German tuner has re-maped the M6's original ECU. The exhaust system has also been substantially reworked as well to provide for an output optimized back pressure. The replaced titanium exhaust system is 12 kgs. Lighter, as-well-as provides a 'deep throaty sound.' Apart from mechanical modifications, the G-Power has also installed 21-inch Hurricane RR forged wheel set wrapped around in Michelin 255/30 ZR21 front & 295/25 ZR21 rear tyres. In terms of suspension setting, tuner has also intsalled an adjustable coilover suspension featuring nine selectable settings. The standard front brakes has been replaced with 420mm discs with six-piston calipers and at an additional cost a carbon version is offered which reduces unsprung mass by 50 percent.
