<\/p>\n
We have introduced you to RENM Performance over the past couple of weeks. We loved their take on both the BMW M3<\/a> and the Audi R8<\/a>, however, we thought we would also bring you up to date on a couple of the companies other projects. Most notably, RENM Performance have worked on Porsche 997 Turbo’s, Mercedes SL550’s and a Lamborghini LP640.<\/p>\n To start with the LP640, RENM called this project ‘Axiom’ deriving from the greek meaning “being in balance”. It’s a subtle modification in all aspects aside from those flashy 19 inch carbon\/forged three-piece wheels. An ECU re-calibration and sports air-filters coupled with a new exhaust system offers 665PS for a stage one tuning package. Stage 2 includes the complete back-pressure controlled exhaust system, revised sports camshafts, cylinder head conditioning and ECU re-calibration and offers 715PS in place of the standard cars 640PS.<\/p>\r\n For the Mercedes, RENM have joined forces with Kleemann to produce what they call the SL550 ‘M-Max’. Performance modifications include an ECU re-calibration, hi-flow air filters, revised stainless steel exhaust headers and down pipes, sports catalytic converters and sports camshafts. The car now produces a significantly increased 460PS. A number of subtle body modifications were added to this car as were light weight alloys.<\/p>\r\n The final vehicle we are yet to talk about is the RENM RM580. It features an extra 80PS over the standard Porsche 997 Turbo thanks to its Stage 2 tuning kit. A number of changes were made to this car including a new exhaust system made from T309 stainless steel and an ECU re-calibration.<\/p>\r\n
