You may remember that Edo Competition’s most recent Porsche Panamera model was the 750HP Turbo-based “Moby Dick”. Now, the German tuning house has set its eyes on the less powerful Panamera S with the presentation of a new model called “HellBoy”(talk about an odd choice of names…).
Described by Edo Competition as coming “straight from hell”, the Panamera S HellBoy has been updated in the both the styling and performance divisions.
The tuning firms starts out with the Porsche’s 4.8-liter V8 engine by adding a less restrictive custom sport exhaust system and recalibrating the ECU. As a result, output rises from 400HP and 500Nm to 465HP and 550Nm (406 lb-ft), which enables the sports saloon to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h (62mph) in 4.6 seconds and reach a top speed of 305 km/h (190mph).
To improve handling, the HellBoy Panamera gains an electronic lowering module that can bring the body up to 30mm closer to the ground at a touch of a button, while riding on new 21-inch wheels shod in tires size 265/35 ZR 21 at the front and 305/30 ZR 21 at the back.
Edo Competition isn’t known for its subtle styling and the HellBoy isn’t an exception. The aero package includes a variety of carbon fiber parts such as the front apron that integrates enlarged intakes, daytime running lights and a lip spoiler, a rear apron with a diffuser, mirror caps, side skirts and a “ducktail” spoiler. The look is complemented by the green pin striping.
The tuner also does some elaborate work on the interior offering buyers a choice of steering wheel designs, and custom upholstery and trim.
