If shes like my wife, those holy jeans were most likely 150-200 dollars.
So why is it our holy work jeans are only worth 10 bucks, LOL

.... would love to see more pics of the car (the wife SW might not agree)

Interestingly enough I showed this thread to a buddy and he mentioned that in Calgary (home) there are at least four 1000+HP twin turbo Lambos, built by Heffner, two 1,000 hp Gallardo’s, a 1200 hp Gallardo and a 1300hp Murcielago

Did not know it was the thing to do to a Lambo?

On slow days, he owns more. On good days, he owns less.

SW owns an exotic car dealership in Austin, so the numbers vary daily.

I like those ADV.1 wheels on the Lambo, that finish looks killer SW.

So was anything done to the transmission to hold that much power?

I remember reading in the past, magazine testing guys where destroying clutches with the stock powerplant.

SW, those wheels look killer. You definitely have an eye for making really subtle, but awesome changes in a car. I just spent a fair amount of time looking at your old posts to see your other current/past cars, man you make a guy jealous! Very cool though.

I Did not get a chance to ask the owner when I spoke with them today. Any feed back would be great, as you know all companies will hype up there product, so if true Id rather be looking for user aspect on your experience with them.
Thanks,
Dave
Yes, Proline builds all of Undergrounds Lambo Motors. There motors are really strong.

Thanks Tony, yes I sometimes get carried away and keep too many. I usually have between 12-15 personal cars at any give time.

The stock trans is good to about 1350rwh. The stock gearing is good for only 207 at redline. Underground has a billet upgrade with taller gearing so they can run over 240 mph. I ran 243.8 in the Supra on the shakedown pass on low boost, we turned it up for the next pass, but heard a noise from the valvetrain so we decided not to run it. The Lambo does 207 in less than a 1/2 mile! This car is unreal on the street. I won the roll race on Sunday with it. I was on the 950 setting and had a extra 300hp on tap if I needed it.

Thanks for all the comments guys,

SW

here is the shakedown video. the smoke was from overfilling the oil..
