Maserati Quattroporte by MR Car Design

Racing soul, without falling in the excess of a tuning "heavy" for the Maserati Quattroporte. It 's the basic concept of MR Car Design specialists have taken into account in the development of an aftermarket kit dedicated to the saloon - the Trident coupé. The tuner Erfstadt GT debut in the field of luxury made in Italy with a personal edition of the Quattroporte 4.2 V8 Automatic.

The ingredients chosen by MR Car Design are classics, drawing the base version of a specific model designed to achieve a performance increase enough to reach the performance versions of "increased", but with a personal picture. Here, then, a slight increase in power, a new painting to the car body, the adoption of new wheels and a minimal attention to alignment.

More specifically: The Maserati Quattroporte has been reviewed, in terms of aesthetics, with a painting in black paint to gloss effect for the body-colored glasses with a solution that seems questionable whether it maintains continuity between body color and windows, does not justice to trump the model of elegance.

The circles of origin have been replaced with a 10-spoke 9x22 Vossen front and 10.5 x 22 at the rear, which host respectively 245/30R22 and 295/25R22 tires. The adoption of "shoes" so great (especially the rear) has requested an increase in roadways, obtained with the use of a pair of 15 mm spacers to the rear wheels.

Discreet, but not excessive, the adjustment of the height from the ground. The "cure" MR, in fact, lowered the car body by 20 mm (front) and 30 mm (rear), with the installation of a set of H & R Suspension Under the hood, the engine remains the 4.2-liter V8 Quattroporte Automatic (equipped with 8-speed gearbox).

The power was increased by approximately 8% (from 400 to 430 bhp for 480 Nm of torque), thanks to the recipe a must to increase the horse without intervening directly on cylinders, valves, camshafts and flywheel. That is to say, with a remapping of the ECU and the replacement of the standard exhaust with a stainless steel element four-terminal 76 mm, made from the same ad hoc MR, to provide a more accurate flow pressure can exhaust gas.

Removed the electronic speed limiter as standard. So the magazine, the Maserati Quattroporte MR Car Design approaches, in terms of performance, more powerful (431 hp) but bigger (500 cc more) Quattroporte 4.7 V8 S Auto. The price will be announced later elaboration.
