edo competition modifies the Bentley Continental GT

It was paramount for edo competition to turn the Bentley Continental into the world’s fastest GT. Consequentially, particular attention was paid to the engine modifications and all associated components.

In factory trim the Bentley reaches a top speed of 326 km/h (203 mph) with 610 horsepower. Since this provided a good starting point for the edo speed GT, the power output of the 6.0-liter W12 engine was increased to 680 horsepower, making edo competition’s offering the most powerful GT in the world. The already massive torque output of 750 Nm (553 ft-lb) rises to 880 Nm (649 ft-lb) at 2,500 rpm. As a result the edo speed GT reaches a top speed in excess of 340 km/h (211 mph) and accelerates from zero to 100 km/h (62 mph) in a phenomenal 4.2 seconds!

Getting this power to the ground are 20 in. racing wheels shod with Sport Contact V-Max tires specially developed by Continental for the edo speed GT. The wheels can be painted according to the customers’ wishes.

edo competition has developed a new high-performance exhaust system for the speed GT which – along with the ECU recalibration – is responsible for the increased output. The high-flow exhaust is made from stainless steel and produces a wonderfully deep and sonorous sound, ensuring the aural experience is given appropriate attention. A new butterfly valve system (with an optional remote control) provides two different settings for the volume level. The development work for the cat-back exhaust system was performed on a dynamometer.

The lowered suspension draws attention to the sporty appearance. The suspension can be adjusted individually thanks to the electronic air suspension control module. The front and rear of the vehicle can be lowered by a maximum of 35 millimeters. As an additional benefit the lowered suspension improves the handling capabilities.

Beautiful wrapper: Customers with a desire for guaranteed exclusivity can opt for a custom exterior color scheme. This is realized using a special foil available in any desired color.

All modifications of the edo speed GT are carried out exclusively at edo competition Motorsport GmbH in Ahlen, Germany.

I was thinking the Continental was quite short on abominations.
now, edo usually does good jobs, but starting with a panzer can't lead much far away.

You know, there's probably a reason why tuners modify Continentals but not Arnages or Azures...

2x1 is a good reason, second reason is soccer/football players don't buy Arnage and Co, third reason is Arnage and Co don't have enough ECUs to mod .

You increase power in an Arnage by having the man with the sooty face shovel coal faster.

Edo is laughable in my books.

in a relative scale in which only tuners exist, there are just a few of them I would consider, and Edo is among them.
Obviously, I wouldn't ask for a single non technical bodywork modifications.

This thing left Horrible so far behind that it had time to pull over, take sh*t and read the newspaper. Truly awful.

I personally would only consider Alpina.

Nothing else.
