As far as which twins, what hp goal are you trying to get to? Are you wanting a setup you want to upgrade in the future?
I want the highest HP possible whilst retaining daily driveability as well as the ability to haul heavy loads anywhere. I am assuming that this is around 700HP ??

So, if that is the correct number, then that is my goal.

I haven't dyno'd in over a year and most of my mods have come in this past year. A guesstimation would be 600. Soon maybe,.. I hate to go until I finish what I'm doing and trying.

OT, With a PPE Hot stack and a little methanol in the water ...you'd be close to 650 I bet. With the EZ you'd be just under 600. ks

Tks for the estimate and you are probably right,... I chose to be conservative with my appraisal. I know longer stack with the EZ.

Thanks a lot !

I have done a lot of modifications since then (smoked rear lenses and side markers, lowered it 3/4" front and rear, tubi exhaust, rear view camera, and have some new HRE rims coming in this week) and i have a laundry list so long it makes my CTD list look like stock vehicle !

I am planning on new cams, headers, exhaust, coating everything in the motor, driveshaft, clutch, flywheel, boreing of the motor, all steel fasteners replaced with titanium, carbon fibre seats, new suspension, brakes, etc, etc. The list goes on and on!

I diddn't read the word turbo once in there. You need to focus your priorities. Turbo Lambo would be a beast(understatement). Call power by poole. The have a bigger turbo selection than most. Or maybe performance diesel warehouse.

I would love to be able to do everything at once. You are your own warrenty station. Have fun. Maybe you can try and break some HP records or something.

Nope, no turbo for the Lambo. I like N/A power for sports cars; so much more controllable around the track and predictable. I should be at 600-625 RWHP in a vehicle that weighs just under 3300 lbs. with about a half tank of gas, and me NOT in it. That's a far superior power-to-weight ratio than an Enzo!!

Oh yeah baby!

I have heard everything from a B2 & SPS66, to a B2 & B1, to a Silver Bullet & B2, or Aurora 2000 & Aurora 5000, etc. etc. Would love to know other's thoughts and hopefully even personal experiences with any of these or even better ones.

Thanks. My truck is almost ready to be torn down!!



Well, I would add 22.5" rims to get better fuel economy

If you ever do want to turbo the Lambo get a hold of this guy. I rode in a Testarossa twin turboed by this guy once in Dallas. All I can say is bada$$. This dude does some exotic stuff.
