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.   |

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

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...

i'd question durability | Why is is the boost level falling on it's face at higher RPM though?
