Dinan Injects BMW M3 With M5-Rivalling Performance
A high-revving, sweet-sounding V-8 is a marvelous thing, and BMW's 4.0-liter V-8 in the M3 is a prime example. The tuners at Dinan, however, weren't satisfied with the factory-supplied 414 horsepower and thus have boosted output of the car to a tire-vaporizing 527 horsepower and 407...

Improving on a Ferrari design is tough - some would say impossible. But it's still attempted often enough, this time by the tuners at Inden Design. Perhaps better known for their work with German cars - especially Mercedes-Benz - the tuners at Inden took a tried-and-true approach to tuning the Ferrari F430.
