///M Invasion 2016 at GMP Performance
The M Invasion was an epic success, with each parking lot filled to the brim with blue and white Bavarian circles and enthusiasts everywhere. Each generation was represented in almost every color imaginable. We had a DJ blasting music throughout the event, food truck filling the air with delicious smells and the attendee's stomachs with delicious food, and cool kits and hot wheels in our showroom, shop, and parking lot, it was a feast for all senses and full of everything you could wish to see and do. The BMWs came from far and wide, with some coming from as far as New York, New Jersey, Texas, and one M3 trekking all the way from Canada to join the fun! Special thanks to Robert Pena for choosing our shop to host and can't wait for M Invasion 2017! Click Here To See The Gallery!

Eventuri RS5 Carbon Fiber Intake
The Audi RS5 Eventuri intake was developed after consultation and support from RS5 enthusiasts. They have completely re-engineered the inlet track from the ducts to the filters and the inlet tubes. The restrictive stock airboxes and duct feeds have been replaced with a highly efficient system with smooth transitions to allow the airflow to remain full and laminar. The resulting performance gains, sound and aesthetics are industry leading for this platform. The RS5 Eventuri system uses their Patent Pending Carbon Fiber Housings which provide an aerodynamically efficient airflow path from the filters to the throttle bodies. Not just another cone filter with a heat shield but a unique design which invokes the Venturi affect. Details

RS5 Girodisc Rear 2 Piece Disc Rotors
Girodisc designs and engineers the replacement discs after documenting and studying the OE brake system and specifically the disc design. After analyzing the data and determining how best to maximize the benefit of the new disc, the design process is carried out using 3D CAD-CAE. Prototypes are constructed and tested with a vehicle. We were lucky enough to be one of those prototypes! Fitted on a recent RS5 build of ours (see more in our gallery builds section below), these rear discs will soon be available for sale. By upgrading your brakes with lightweight high performance replacements, your factory bias is maintained as well as your ABS efficiency. This reduction in rotational and unsprung weight allows for quicker acceleration and suspension response. Details

APR Conference
The Audi B8 A5/S5/RS5 platform is Audi's brawny coupe that combines good looks with AWD handling and performance options worthy of some track day fun. The GMP Performance harness bar is designed to incorporate that fun with safety. The goal of this bar was to allow an enthusiast to add safety each track weekend by themselves. The factory seats are removed with four bolts each. Once the seats are removed, the hoop is put into position. The shoulder belts remain attached to the harness bar between runs so there is no need for additional adjustments. With the hoop installed, the rear seats are folded forward and down bars are mounted in place. The interlocking tube clamp hardware is tightened and the harness bar is ready for the track. Details

Eventuri also excels at BMWs latest models, from the M3, already being enthusiastically put to the test by a local F80, to this one, the excellent F10 M5 intake, soon to be seen on another customer vehicle of ours. The F10 M5 intake system was developed through extensive dyno testing, maximum velocity tests and flow optimisation. We have developed a complete system from front air ducts to filter housings and even inlet tubes to the turbos.

Thanks to the dual-mode exhaust flap system, the "cat-back" Slip-On enhances the unmistakably deep resonant sound of Akrapovič.
