We really love intercultural tuning projects and we are now more than happy to present a new one to you. We are talking about a Chevy Camaro that was targeted by the German aftermarket specialist Irmscher. The tuner chose the V8-powered Camaro SS as a starting point, offering certain exterior and multiple tech modifications for the car.

The Camaro's 6.2 liter V8 is an engine that can make you scream, offering a modern example of American road power. However, the tuner considered that the engine wasn't beefy enough. We think that you can already see where this is going. Yes, you are right, the story involves forced induction. The V8 powerplant has been gifted with a supercharger kit, as well as with a new exhaust system and an ECU remap. In case you were wondering what the result of this play is, we'll tell you that the engine now delivers 509 hp.

This allows the custom Camaro to play the 0 to 62 mph game in four seconds flat and, if the driver insists, keeps on accelerating until it hits 275 km/h (171 mph).

As we said, the tuner has taken good care of the vehicle's tech areas. To handle the extra power, the car has been fitted with a tweaked suspension that allows the driver to adjust the ride height. The car also has a high level of stopping power, as it has been fitted with a new breaking system that uses 380mm rotors and six-piston calipers at the front and 355 mm rotors with four-piston calipers at the back.

The Irmscher Chevrolet Camaro rides on a set of custom alloy rims that come in a 22-inch size and use a black finish. The vehicle's exterior offers a set of door, hood and roof decals that give it a special personality.
