I was following a matte grey R8 V10 the other day and it also made those gunshot sound between shifts.

If you love exotics i encourage you to drop by, Hell, you can even ride along. A buddy is booking out the quarter mile drag for his birthday. Now... Will this setting this ridiculously long and quite pointless arguement? BTW... Steve, why would tthe UGR site for N/A say 500 - 600 when the Gallardo comes with over 500 already?? Plus chipping a gallardo already gives it 600hp, if you add in all the throttle bodies ect. you will have over 650 - 700... that site is purely an estimate for cars such as the R8, 911's ect... If anyone wants to drop by and view or maybe even ride or drive along at the track feel free. I will be posting a day and maybe meet some new people!

Forgot... to mention the Lp560 has the same drivetrain as the R8, IDENTICAL 4 wheel drive system and Transmission. so the only thing you can account for is the throttle input... it was on the strip not on the street....
QUESTION: i dont know why this happens, i never hear it from inside Audi R8 GUN SHOT EXHAUST? Vancouver BC - YouTube


Running with other car doesn't mean shit. You do realize there's a lot of factors racing other cars? Just because a 560 has 560 and you can beat it DOESN'T MEAN your car has 560 HP.

I'd drop by anyday, but that would be to Racing Greed when you dyno your car.

That doesn't settle shit, if you want to settle JUST DYNO AND YOU ARE GOOD TO GO.

Also dragging with other cars won't "Prove me wrong" the only thing that will prove me wrong is a dyno sheet.

I don't see why you are not interested in dyno'ing and coming up with all these other ideas and beating around the bush, you have nothing to prove, you have money you can do whatever you want but I am just curious how you are getting the claimed 580 HP and the only way to prove it is to have a dyno chart not your bullshit race a car with more HP bullshit, there are too many variables for that to work.

Also about the UGR claims, YOU DO REALIZE THERES A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN RWHP and CRANK RIGHT?

just finished reading the whole argument

I'm not trying to pick sides nor do i really care about the whole situation in who's right or wrong, but i see this as nothing different than a guy claiming his civic can make 400hp with bolt on's.

What would majority of the people do if this analogy was actually true? the chances are the civic guy will get called out for 'bullshitting' and probably get made fun of and have rocks thrown at him. But who knows maybe the civic guy may be telling the truth? There may be information out there to support that the argument is false but we cant personally prove that he is bullshitting

What is the difference here between my analogy and this whole matt situation? Does the story seem more reliable because the car in subject is an r8 and not a civic? in the end its an automotive forum.. its where hideous looking cars and false claims get called out whether it be true or not

move on, continue the argument with manner and stop bringing the whole "you are jealous because he is well off than you" type of shit out of here, has nothing to do with the main premise of the whole argument

Umm...he did say he's interested. Give him a break. He's only in Grade 12 or something, and does have to attend school Monday to Friday. Not to mention the current condition of his car. Give him some time to fix the shit under his hood and/or exhaust.

Whether the result will be 499HP, 520HP, or 580HP, sooner or later....he'll make a trip out to RacingGreed and get you a dyno chart.

Just cause you demanded one, doesn't mean he will have to get you one within the next 24 hours.

im gonna give it a shot and say that the sound is the pop you get from a dual-clutch gearbox


this is from a GTI with DSG transmission

i imagine on a car with twice as many cylinders and more than twice the displacement the pop would be louder

unless youre 6 speed..

Does that include sending your R8 to UGR?

I like you..but I always chuckle when I hear comments like that from guys who live at home. Paying for your own mods is nothing to brag about when you have no other expenses -__-. Hell, anyone who takes home $3k a month could afford a Ferrari if they didn't have to pay rent, bills, groceries and put money away to someday buy a home.

I apologize for making assumptions about your living situation, but I'm probably right on some level

Given the fact that the "studio" is at your house, I'm guessing your customers pay cash, and your business is technically not registered?
