2014 LIGHTWEIGHT BMW LW M4

The latest company to jump on the bandwagon of aftermarket M4 is lightweight and is no less impressive than any other program M4 we have encountered in the past. The German tuner specialized in custom development and manufacturing of titanium exhaust and again, that did not stop the Lightweight M4 give a tuning kit that includes a host of aerodynamic upgrades and performance.

The result of the program deserves nothing less than a slow clap, the kind you give to a someone, after an extraordinary performance.

This is what has made lightly BMW M4 and the German sports coupe looks and performs much better for it. I'll also hazard a guess that has a neck much clearer for greater power of its 3.0-liter V-6. Only a suspect, even if the evidence does not lie in the details, right?

The experience of lightweight titanium exhaust systems must not be underestimated. In fact it is the only one in Germany for the production of exhaust systems using modern CAD technology and specifically titanium alloy. Of course, it is expected that it is perfectly crafted, or as close to perfection as is.

Light also installed a handful of aerodynamic components on the M4, including a new blade front spoiler and a rear wing in carbon. Both components help to improve the performance capability of the sports car and they also make the M4 look even more sinister than it already is.

The BMW M4 also benefited from a set of wheels. For this particular trip, lightweight opted for a set of wheels RI-D 19-inch BBS that are wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tires 2. Together with a new chassis Bilstein Clubsport, these wheels create a better aesthetic value and provides the M4 configuration with a more performance-oriented, which should come in handy when the machine flexing muscles ..

The last piece of business was to improve the light output of the 3.0-liter V-6 engine of the M4. The standard output of the sports coupe is 425 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque, but thanks to the incredible technical reading, the M4 now has 520 horsepower and 479 pounds-feet of torque at its disposal.

Performance numbers have not been announced, but we can at least wait for the M4 reinvented to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in about 3.7 seconds to go with a top speed of about 180 mph.

You thought light was made after all these updates? Well, the company also said it is planning a more race-oriented M4. This version will come with all the bells and whistles of a full-spec racing cars, including a safety cage, bucket seats with six-point seat belts, a blade adjustable front spoiler, a rear diffuser in carbon, a lip spoiler on the trunk lid, an enclosed underbody, and another round of weight reduction that should give the M4 even more grit to put out any sports coupe that comes in contact with.
