The Bentley Continental GT Speed tuned. We can hear you think “another tuner creating a package for this already stunning GT”. This time the company is called ASI. They transformed a Continental GT Speed utilizing dry carbon in the bodywork, adding custom 22” wheels and an aggressive bodykit. Thanks to this the Continental GT changed into a very aggressive beast. Power output with an ECU upgrade pushes the GT range from the factory standard 560 bhp to 640 bhp. All this power has been put on the road by upgrading the brake and suspension modifications.
