Sharpieferrari Report post Posted February 1, 2017 I'm currently having my Murcielago twin turbo'd and was wondering if anyone owns one on here. Looking for tips and pointers. I drive my cars so it will be rallied and cross countried just the same as it has been under my care for the last four years...

emanon Report post Posted February 1, 2017 My advice... keep the power level low... The drivetrain isn't nearly as robust as the Gallardo. Keep it mild or you'll be in a world of hurt. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpieferrari Report post Posted February 3, 2017 So I have a 2003 Murcielago. Ive owned it for almost five years now and get bored quite often as my pic of color changes and wraps will show. So I decided to TT it after the guys at Straightline Performance in Joliet have done a few crazy builds for me in the past. We were putting off doing the mod to my murci until we got all the facts about what the stock block can hold, what the rear end can hold, and who can tune once complete. So we solved the issues out and now have commenced the work. I agree we are keeping boost levels moderately low and staying well within 3 digit hp range. Any input or help along the way is appreciated!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underground Racing Report post Posted February 3, 2017 Out of the ones we built, we never have had any transmission, engine or any other drive-train issues. Were you might struggle is finding a good clutch. We used to get carbon clutches made but RPS stopped making them as the demand wasn't there. ;( I don't have any experience with the other Murci clutches that are out there from other aftermarket clutch manufactures. I might add if the demand ever picked up, we would make a ceramic clutch like we do for the Gallardos and Aventadors. They work like stock and can hold up to 1500whp.

I appreceiate the chime in and help. The clutch will be an issue and will be addressed. I just finished reading an unfortunate post between you and another member and glad to see you are helpful to those that aren't even a customer of yours. Im sure I'll have other questions and quirks come up but look forward to being part of the TT community in general. Racing won't be in my future but long trips and fun times await!

Sharpieferrari Report post Posted February 28, 2017 Are you using the stock exhaust manifolds? Yes, I was told the stock manifolds are a high flow great design and to change them was pointless. We removed and inspected them and determined that they were more than sufficient for the twin turbo platform. Have u heard otherwise? I'm all for any input good or bad. Thanks.

alpha6164 Report post Posted March 1, 2017 What are you doing for ECU? I have a fabricator that can knock this out quick. The biggest issue i was facing is how to go about getting it tuned? Are you doing a full Motec ECU? All inputs would be appreciated. You should also find my thread where i did full custom exhaust manifold on my LP640 and picked up 50-60whp. The stock headers are very restrictive with all the sharp angles they have. But my picked up quite a bit of power. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
