1242awhp Turbo Gallardo....spinning the tires on dyno!!

Here's the dyno vid......

1242whp spinning the tires with 15psi to go!! We estimate it was making over 1300 but the dyno won't hold it. Once I get it back to Vegas we will turn it up.

I couldn't even imagine how that thing must feel to drive...

You wouldn't have to. You could build 4 turbo Corvettes for the price of one of these. AWD is king.

Thats awesome congrats, have you considered building a Twin Turbo LP-560? Those cars are sick and blow away the regular Gallardo stock vs stock.

At this point it wouldn't really matter. I already have a fully built engine, ported heads, completely build drivetrain, Motec M880, etc.....the car really doesn't have much stock componentry in it at this point. Plus mine is one of only 4 Verde SE's with e-gear made, so I like the rarity factor.

Tilton, DSS axles, custom front LSD, Motec traction control, boost staged by gear.

Twin 71's on it......I'm running about HALF the boost they are capable of.

Yes your wallet takes a pounding from modding Lambos that's for sure. The next weak link is the trans and the upgrade I'm looking at is 20k plus if she let's go....ahhhh well. You only live once I suppose. Enjoy it.
