BMW X5 Typhoon Black Pearl

Saturday, February 6th, 2010

Spending over €300,000 to make a crossover-utility vehicle go faster may sound absurd but that is the price to pay for such a demand. This was actually applied to a BMW X5 titled the Typhoon Black Pearl by G-Power. And for that price, you may be amazed at the power it now has. It can power from 0-100 km/h in just 4.5 seconds and do a top speed in excess of 300 km/h.

The power generated by the Typhoon Black Pearl is all thanks to a supercharger and new intake, exhaust, pistons and an engine control unit. These were all fitted in the BMW X5’s 4.8 liter V8 engine which now produces a crazy 625HP. Top it all off with 23” wheels and you get one hell of a monstrous vehicle to handle.
