The company`s recent work of art has been on the Alfa Romeo 4C, the Facelift variant.

With the new visual add-ons, the Alfa Romeo 4CC in question looks more aggressive, extremely modern and way too gorgeous. It looks perhaps exactly the way it should have been in stock production.

As we can depict from the media gallery below, the aftermarket specialist from UP Design have added a Giulia-like front fascia with new headlights and the company`s traditional grille, which is now more prominent with the large under spoiler.

Moving towards the back, the car`s sided have received more dynamic skirts and updated pillars and quarter panels. As for the rear end, UP Design have added a more aggressive fascia, new headlights, retro-inspired engine cover, as well as an 8C-features bumper and tailpipe system.

Inside, the cabin also looks flashy with the new upgrades. For that, the tuner partnered Adler, another important aftermarket shop that deals with interior customizations.

The professionals added high-quality carbon fiber with two-tone colour scheme in black and tan with contrast stitching. there is also the silver painted plastic which replaces the plastic switch gear and a couple of more details.

As for performance upgrades, the tuner has not announced any. This means that the car is taking its power from the same 1.75-liter turbocharged flat-four engine with 270 horsepower. You can find out more details about the UP Design`s new aero kit on the gorgeous Alfa Romeo 4C facelift in the media gallery below. Enjoy and don’t forget to tell us if you like the project!

Alfa Romeo 4C ‘Nemesis’ by Pogea Racing Is the Real Deal https://www.carztuning.com/2018/05/alfa-romeo-4c-nemesis-pogea-racing-real-deal/ https://www.carztuning.com/2018/05/alfa-romeo-4c-nemesis-pogea-racing-real-deal/#respond Wed, 30 May 2018 19:11:12 +0000 http://www.carztuning.com/?p=13770 If you own a new Alfa Romeo 4C and want to have it customized just like the model in our story, then you should definitely contact Pogea Racing tuning firm for some in-depth transformation, both at the exterior as well as under the hoof.

Pogea Racing division is part of Abarth company which deals with Alfa Romeo programs. This time, the model in question is the gorgeous 4C, an exceptionally well-built sports car with an aggressive body style and impressive performance figures.

However, the model is completely changed, thanks to the new add-ons from Pogea Racing, all part of the so called ‘Nemesis’ project. Everything is changed – the exterior and interior, mechanically, and of course, the power boost under the hood – making it a completely new car.

As we can depict from the media gallery below, the technicians from Pogea Racing have added a bespoke front bumper with integrated spoiler for increased aerodynamics, along with side skirts or large wing mounted at the rear which increases the car`s downforce.

There is also the new 18- and 19-inch alloy wheels, front and rear, respectively, which keep the car to the ground and increase its grip while tackling the corners at high speeds. The interior has also been improved to provide a sportier yet more luxurious feel, thanks to the new sports seats, aluminum pedals, or leather / Alcantara upholstery.

However, the car`s main highlight remains the power boost under the hood. To achieve the new power, the specialists added some modifications to the car`s 1.75-liter turbo four-cylinder pot. Thus, they installed a larger turbocharger, forged pistons, wider intake valves, and a new crankshaft, all raising the power from the stock 177 kW to a staggering 356 kW, while the torque has been improved from 350 Nm of torque to a nice 535 Nm of torque. The engine also comes with a custom-built dual-clutch transmission, that helps the car to performe better from 0 to 100 km/h. Unfortunately, we do not know the official figures, but we expect around 4.1 seconds from standstill.

Alfa Romeo 4C CENTURION by Pogea Racing https://www.carztuning.com/2015/12/alfa-romeo-4c-centurion-pogea-racing/ https://www.carztuning.com/2015/12/alfa-romeo-4c-centurion-pogea-racing/#respond Wed, 09 Dec 2015 16:15:53 +0000 http://www.carztuning.com/?p=6391 The famous Pogea Racing tuner has recently recreated a more potent version of the Alfa Romeo 4C, called the CENTURION 1 Plus, with only ten units to be ever produced. Each one comes with a price tag of $87,100, or the equivalent of 79,950 GBP.

We are dealing here with a limited-edition which comes with a power boost under the hood as well as some body style upgrades.

In the stock version, the Alfa Romeo 4C uses a 1.5-liter turbocharged gasoline flat-four engine, with 237 horsepower and 350 Nm of torque, enough to reach 100 km/h in 4.1 seconds, at a topping of 257 km/h.

However, with the power kit fitted underneath its skin, the 4C CENTURION develops 314 horsepower and 336 Nm of torque, allowing a sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.8 seconds, at a top speed of 305 km/h.

Leaving the engine department, the aftermarket specialists from Pogea Racing tuner next wrapped the car`s body style with a new carbon aero kit, consisting of a new front bumper, rear spoiler and diffuser. At the back, the model stands out with the custom wind, generating an extra of 35 kg downforce on the rear axle at 160 km/h.

The entire body styling is now complemented by the 18- and 19-inch front and rear ultralight forged XCUT rubbers, wrapped in Michelin rubbers.
