Aftermarket specialists bring together a combination of products from well-known tuners to create the ultimate Mercedes-Benz McLaren SLR.

It all began with a 2006 McLaren SLR coupe modified by Renntech to produce 160 more horsepower through alterations to the car’s 5.5-liter supercharged V-8 engine. These modifications include a new supercharger pulley for more boost pressure as well as a re-tuned ECU. In addition, the vehicle is equipped with Renntech’s latest proprietary transmission cooler, sport exhaust, and modified intercooler pump and heat exchangers. Equipped with Hoosier drag radials, the SLR was able to consistently run 10.29-second quarter miles at Palm Beach International Raceway to both simultaneously embarrass owners of muscle cars designed for the straight-line race and claim the title of the world’s fastest SLR McLaren.

But work wasn’t finished on the 770-hp Renntech-modified SLR McLaren even after it claimed the title in April. Its carbon-fiber panels attributed to its high-performance levels, but it was still dressed in the stock sleeper body. That’s why the decision was made to apply an SLR Renovatio kit to the SLR coupe, the first time the kit would be applied outside of the Mansory factory. The entire car was stripped down to replace its panels with Mansory’s sculpted and aerodynamically enhanced units. For example, a new front apron channels cool air to the intercooler while the rear diffuser adds downforce at speed. The whole thing was dressed in a gloss white to hides its black carbon-fiber weave.

Topping things off is a set of Forgiato wheels. Forgiato says it uses forged aluminum parts to custom manufacture three-piece wheels to the exact specifications of the application. In the photo above, the SLR McLaren is wearing Maglia ECLs finished in the same white as the rest of the car.

Rounding out the changes is an interior swimming in Alcantara and carbon fiber.
