600 BHP Bentley GTX b Onyx Concept

The V8 Bentley tuning projects keep coming in, and we can't say we're not happy about that. The 4.0-liter twin-turbo is one of the most character-packed engines out there, finally a good match to Bentley's sporting nature.

The black beauty before our eyes is a creation of Onyx Concept, who have given it the in-and-out treatment. It's got a full body kit, but what is found under the bonnet is what really caught out attention.

The twin-turbo has been pushed to new levels of performance: 600 bhp, 607 PS of Dublin-Crewe goodness. As for body kit, the GT V8 gets lots of goodies: widebody goodies, new side skirts, extended wheel arches, LED daytime running lights, square exhaust pipes and 22-inch forged wheels.

How would we describe what Onyx has tone to the Bentley GT V8? Well, it's like taking a gentleman and teaching him how to fight K1-stype – you must respect him… or else.
