This BMW M3 tuned by RS Racingteam reaches the 100km/h in only 4.6 seconds, also 200km/h being reached in under 15 seconds. Great shame to it is that the M3 has the limitation put on 299km/h and it is capable of more than that.

Especially emphasized tuner stiffness, it is much improved.

The price of the E90 BMW M3 is 80.000 Euros or $ 105.000, and if you want a version specifically designed to be used legally on the streets you must add 30.000 Euros more.

I don’t know, but they seem to be just about everywhere since a new tuning package for the BMW 1M seems to turn up every couple of weeks or so.

The newest one to join the lot comes from Alpha-N Performance and before I even look at i, I am annoyed by it’s creation. I shouldn’t be though.

Alpha-N Performance is a tuner that’s more special than you’d imagine since it has absorbed the ruins of a different company.

That’ll be the much loved Brabham racing team that used to be a major player in the Formula 1 set. They may not be around but they have some very useful know-how from the high profile sport.

Which exactly the reason behind the Alpha-N Performance BMW 1M RS featuring a kit which includes a carbon fiber hood, front fascia, lower spoilers, roof, boot lid spoiler and rear diffuser.

So Alpha-N dropped the weight, always an welcome addition to the plan but they’ve also been a little busy adding some extra power.

The 3.0 liter twin-turbocharged straight six cylinder engine now gets an extra 70 horsepower making for a total of 410 being produced.

That’s achieved courtesy of a remapped ECU, a new air intake and exhaust system. Finally, the BMW 1M RS gets six piston calipers, 380 mm brake disks and braided stainless steel lines all around.

The final change is to be found in a set of lightweight OZ Superforgiata 19 inch alloy wheels.

So far we’ve yet to see any of them ruin the compact sports car and we seriously doubt that the version we see here, created by Tuningwerk is the first one to fail.

The German tuner turned the little coupe into a miniature racer and then they’ve gone on to give it BMW racing colors. How could that possibly go wrong?

Apart from being painted in the traditional BMW war colors, the Tuningwerk 1 Series M Coupe also has Safety Car written on it without any particular competitions being announced.

Maybe they’re working on the paperwork to obtain clear notification of how that might actually become a reality soon.

What is already here is the modified turbochargers, cooling, exhaust and an ECU remap. Put all these together and the 3.0 liter straight six engine now develops 528 horsepower and 453 lb-ft of torque.

That’s so much, we’re not even getting a 0 to 62 time. All we know is that now, the top speed stands at 186 mph. And this is with all of the added downforce.

The latter comes from a revised body kit and a sizable new rear wing. Helping handling even more than that is a set of new tires, light wheels and a brake upgrade.

Finally, the handling and safety cake gets a cherry on top in optional form. If you feel you can do away with the rear seats, Tuningwerk will give you a full rollcage for this lovely little car.
