Illtech + Horsepower Freaks: Worlds Collide

Horsepower Freaks: Same famous products and inventory blow out! 

We’ve all heard the buzz around HPF closing their facilities and its truly hard to imagine the marketplace with out these amazing products and the people that helped develop them. On behalf of our staff over here at Illtech, we are indeed empathetic of all their clients, vendors and employee’s losses–We wish them all, nothing but the very best!

Illtech offers the last of HPF products…

An innovative and Iconic Co. like Horsepower Freaks will forever remain in Googles search engines, under the hoods of 1000 hp Bmw m3′s, and in our hearts.

 

But wait ……

 

 

Does it all end here–Whats next for HPF and their clients needs?

Most critics and previous clients can only speculate what, or if anything will surface from the power house that once was HPF.  The largest concern we see in the community is; where to get product support, replacement parts, or service work/tuning?

 

Making a come back:

We, like you, see this rather large gap in the market place, and out of necessity, a deficit this large has to be filled, right?!

For all of you true Horsepower Freaks, ILLtech auto now offers a solution:

We are proud to exclusively offer (otherwise discontinued) products from HPF– ranging from support, installation, engine build programs,  (the world famous) E46 M3 turbo kits, replacement parts, 335I/135I stainless steel exhaust systems, front mount intercoolers, and so much more!

 

Time to freak out: Get the HPF parts that you love, while you can!

Call 425-990-TECH or email sales@illtechauto.com for all of your HPF needs– We have limited supplies on hand, so call us NOW! 

 

Parts we have for sale and in-stock (previews) 

  • BMW 335 Series Front mount Intercooler kits

 

  • BMW 335 series exhaust kits: sedan, coupe and AWD (on hand)  Call or email for pricing:


Here are the specs….

The HPF exhaust system is one of the highest flowing exhaust systems on the market for the BMW 335i with staggering 3.5″ stainless steel piping and zero mufflers. Simply installing the HPF exhaust and removing your factory 335i exhaust system will take 40 lbs off the weight of your car due to it’s single large diameter pipe design.  Don’t ever buy another exhaust system. This exhaust will easily support the flow requirements to exceed 800rwhp. With 100% USA polished stainless steel and fully adjustable 3.5″ titanium tips, give your 335i the look it deserves and a sound that turns heads. Think running without a muffler sounds loud? Check out the video above and see for yourself. There is zero drone with the rubber isolated mounts and the sound is exotic.

We are proudly announcing our newest partnership. We are the only authorized – Alpha Series (R35 GT-R) Performance Package Installer & Tuner in the Pacific Northwest!

We are proudly announcing our newest partnership. We are the only authorized – Alpha Series (R35 GT-R) Performance Package Installer & Tuner in the Pacific Northwest!

We will be updating this post and our site to show all the specialty products that are Alpha Specific.    Some of the popular packages are show here on our site: More to come http://www.illtechauto.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=6692&sort=&filter_id=449

Alpha Performance Packages   (We ship world wide)

Alpha 6 Package

The Alpha 6 GT-R could pass for a stock vehicle under cruising conditions because of the proper re-calibration of the ECU. When you lay on the throttle, the differences become very clear as the speedometer needle wraps around in a hurry!  We have seen a best drag time of 10.6 @ 130 mph on 93 octane pump gas with this race-proven package.

Alpha 9 Package

The Alpha 9 package for your Nissan GT-R offers the most reliable bolt-on horsepower available and we have proven results to back it up. This package offers stock-like turbo spool up and drivability while boosting power output to an astounding 950 horsepower on race gas and 850 horsepower on pump gas. The Alpha 9 package has more accolades than any other package available!

Alpha 10 Package

The Alpha 10 package for the Nissan GT-R combines the stock-like drivability of the Nissan GT-R with a total of 1250 horsepower. Typically, power like this comes at the cost of having to deal with drivability issues and a narrow powerband. That is not the case with the Alpha 10. Every aspect of this package was fine-tuned to provide a broad, usable powerband. Your GT-R will now more than hold its own on the road course and drag strip against most dedicated race cars, yet offer exceptional performance for the street.

Alpha 12 Package

Acceleration better than most dedicated drag cars, with enough top end speed to put any exotic to shame, yet mild mannered enough for daily use. At over 1500 HP the Alpha 12 Package was developed to convert your GT-R into one of the fastest, street legal cars to ever hit the highway. In initial testing we set a blistering 60-130 mph acceleration time of 3.31 seconds!

Project Ferrari received insurance that comes in the form of an AEM gauge

To keep our Ferrari project safe after we tune it, we installed a failsafe gauge by AEM. This gauge will read boost and air fuel ratio. If the gauge detects an out of range air fuel ratio reading, it will trigger a low side output ground signal that will save our engine from complete failure. If you have not seen the Twin Turbo Ferrari 550 Maranello blog check it out here!

 We didn’t want to drill any holes in the 550′s carbon fiber/leather interior. So we came to the agreement that we would install the gauge in the drivers side vent. We blocked off the vent so hot air would not hit out gauge and over heat it, but dont worry the 550 has plenty of other vents to keep us warm in the winter.
