SEMA is essentially the biggest stage in the car [...]]]> SEMA stands for Specialty Equipment Market Association, and is one of the largest annual shows in the states. There is 2 million square feet of space for exhibition purposes. Anything that has to do with vehicle upgrades, restoration, concepts, motorsports, and car care is displayed there.

SEMA is essentially the biggest stage in the car industry, where tuners, car manufacturers, and performance part manufacturers can present their cars and products.

Akrapovic is an exhaust manufacturing company based out of Slovenia. Started in 1990 creating motorcycle exhaust solutions, Akrpapovic quickly became the leader in titanium exhaust system technology. In 2004, the leap was taken in the automotive racing industry. With so many years of experience creating the best titanium exhaust systems for motorcycles, Akrapovic created the most advanced systems for automotive applications with ease.

Often referred to “Pieces of Art”, these systems are hands down the best built and developed systems for cars.

HG Motorsports teamed up with Akrapovic this year to display their new Titanium Exhaust System for the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG.

The following modifications were performed to the 2011 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG

-Akrapovic Titanium Exhaust System

ESS Tuning has set the bar for the BMW Performance world for the past 16 years.

They have three goals [...]]]> You read it right. The world renown BMW tuner ESS Tuning has chosen HG Motorsports as their Authorized Southern California Dealer and Installer. Together, they are bringing home the first M6 with their newly developed supercharger system.

ESS Tuning has set the bar for the BMW Performance world for the past 16 years.

They have three goals to meet before any ESS engine related performance product is released for sale :

1. Their extended computerized load dyno test which simulates driving so hard that it is just not possible to drive this hard in real life.
2. They put the development cars through a 50000 mile (80000km) long term test which involves track driving, extreme heat and cold testing, high-speed Autobahn driving for extended periods, and normal everyday driving.
3. The car must have factory like or better driveability and smoothness and it must develop the extra power in a perfectly balanced manner.

When they meet these 3 goals with 100% success then, and only then, the product is released for sale. 

What separates ESS from the competition:
-Standard 2 year/unlimited mileage warranty on all street supercharging systems.
-Excellent technical support from trained, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic personnel.
-True OEM quality fit and finish, and designed to fit under the factory hood without any fabricating.
-Designed for maximum performance at safe boost levels on stock unmodified engines.
-Fully OBD-II diagnostics compatible.
-Fast service and support.
-100% complete systems, even down to the wire ties, making installation and ownership easy and trouble free.
