Anyone can just throw some turbos on a car and call it a day. The good shops are gonna make sure you can drive the car everyday without having to worry about issues.
In fact the built UGR Gallardos are usually more reliable then the stock cars..

I still think that Lambo should have done twin turbos for the Reventon.. Make it as fast as it looks...

Agreed. I just love their TT LP670-4, however not a huge fan of the wheels.

SP has been dealing with high end exotics for years. They aren't just another tuning shop.

yet they cant even get the boost to hold steady at high rpms? Seems lazy to me to not bother to track that down and just make a video showing it happening. What other corners are they cutting?

Again UGR gives you a 2 year 24,000 mile warranty on their work.

Like I said... They just sorta slapped a couple turbos on and called it a day... Anything more and they need to start building the engine..

Are you implying that they are letting the boost drop on purpose?

2004 1000HP Heffner Lambo Only $119000

Volvo-brickster 09-05-2010 10:29 PM

to those who question 0.5 bar....that's 7 PSI and enough to make 900hp

heffner runs 7psi on one of his packages and his setup runs 823hp
http://heffnersperformance.com/lp560ttdyno.htm

boost is just a number....don't get all caught up in it

i'd question durability

GabAlmighty 09-05-2010 10:37 PM

7psi is fine, not putting too much strain on the motor at that point.

What I really don't like, and what's been mentioned before in the thread, is the fact that the boost is leaking off higher in the rpms...

Why is is the boost level falling on it's face at higher RPM though?
