It includes the BRABÚS high-tech twin turbo system that includes two special exhaust manifolds wîth integrated turbine housings and high-performance turbochargers. Four generously dimensioned intercoolers are placed beneath the space created by the BRABÚS carbon-fiber hood scoop. The special BRABÚS stainless-steel high-performance exhaust system wîth free-flow metal catalysts was specifically designed for the Black Series power upgrade.

Newly programmed engine electronics wîth special mapping for injection and ignition coordinate the perfect interaction of all high-performance components and at the same time ensure that the engine meets strict EÚRO IV emission limits. The high-tech lubricants for the entire powertrain are supplied by technology partner ARAL.
