Geigercars Hummer H3
04-04-2006


Extra power via supercharger is the geigercars.de motto for the tune-up of the 3.5 litre fivecylinder Vortec engine of the H3. The engine technicians of Europe’s leading customizer for US cars are developing a supercharger engine for the small HUMMER. The compressor helps the engine to achieve a power increase from standard 223 hp / 164 kW to about 325 hp / 239 kW. Maximum torque is increased to about 435 Nm. The engine conversion reduces the acceleration time from 0 - 100 km/h to about 8.4 seconds, maximum speed is about 210 km/h.
The geigercars.de supercharger kit for the HUMMER H3 will be available from fall 2005 when the development is finished. A cat-back sport exhaust system will be available soon. The exhaust system doesn’t only deliver a more exciting engine sound but also a more spectacular look due to its two large chromed exhaust tips.
Of course geigercars.de also offers a wide range of exclusive accessories for the US off road car. To be able to fully exploit the road performances of the supercharged engine it is necessary to furnish the car with bigger wheels. geigercars.de offers different versions up to the wheel/tire combination shown on the photos. The one-piece 9.5Jx20 light alloy rims and 265/60 R 20 tires are offered for a retail price of 3,816 Euros. To give the front of the newcomer a more striking appearance GeigerCars.de offers a high-polished stainless-steel front guard... (COUNTINUED AT LINK)

Re: Geigercars Hummer H3

I feel power is the biggest weak point in the H3. I think the best way to get it would be a supercharger or a turbo. Keep the weight down and the fuel economy up.

You got that right, it needs a turbo, or a bigger engine (V8 mabey, not thats it not already been suggested 10000 times). That H3 with a more Off-Road package & the 5-speed (or 6 would be better) would be perfect for me. But I'm goona wait for the H3T, unless GM comes out with some kind of cool ElCamino.

I'm talking about GM offering a AFM V8 engine in the Hummer H3.
