Last month at Nardo, German known car mag Auto Bild and tire manufacturer Continental sponsored a high-speed showdown, during which big-time tuners from all over -- Sportec, Brabus, 9ff, HGP and TechArt just to name a few -- descended upon the circular track in Italy to see what they could wring out of their high-horsepower hardware.

9ff ruled the day, however. Its 780-horsepower Porsche 997 Cabrio with the Boost Cooler Stage 2-VC25 installed  became the fastest car of its type when it clocked in at 380.5 km/h (236.43 mph). 9ff Cabrio with Boost Cooler S2-VC25 at Nardo Photo: Autobild Sportscars A Porsche convertible always is a good choice: elegant, suitable for everyday use and at the same time sufficiently sporty. But the 9ff convertible offers more than just that: it speeds up to 100 km/h in less than 4 seconds; 5 seconds later (less than 9s), it hits the 200 km/h mark and 11 seconds later, you scorch the tarmac with a speed of more than 300 km/h. At such a speed, caps or toupees don't stand a chance. Thanks to its incredible power output of more than 780HP and 830Nm of torque, the discreet super sports car was allowed to compete, beside 15 other potent bolides, for the title of the fastest tuned car. This event, held by Continental and AUTO BILD SPORTSCARS, took place on the high-speed track in the Italian city of Nardo. The HP-miracle by 9ff took part as the very last contestant and promptly set a world record. 9ff's owner and lead engineer, Jan Fatthauer, was the man behind the wheel for the feat. According to the release from 9ff, he simply got into the car, drove three laps, and parked it, and went for coffee with the new record in hand. Afterward, he had a great line, saying, "We wanted to do justice to our reputation as tuners who resist physics, an aim we have accomplished." _____________________________________________________________________ Another world record was broken by the HGP VW Golf R32 by using our Boost Cooler waterinjection system on the same day!  The V6 Biturbo with 3.2l engine size produce 600hp and 720Nm torque.  0-100km/h sprint in about 4seconds! _____________________________________________________________________ Last but not least, our sales partner Enco-Exclusive drove at the Nardo Highspeed contest: a Porsche Cayenne Turbo. That monster produces 638hp with 892torque.  The topspeed was 294km/h - that makes this car to one of the fastest SUV worldwide!
