ironpeddler Report post Posted May 7, 2015 Hey all, I am looking at purchasing and modding a Gallardo superleggera/performante. This has probably been asked before but is there a problem with twin turbo'ing a vert?? I go to UGR's website and it looks as if most of the cars are just straight coupes...is there a reason for this?? Is it just a cost thing being you can save thousands by not buying a vert??

There are plenty of tt'd spyders. I don't think anyone buying a lambo and spending $100k+ on turbos are worried about a few thousand saved on a spyder. I would imagine it just a personal preference whether people by coupes or spyders. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get a straight-up spyder, regular variety, and make it a "sleeper" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhbchess Report post Posted May 7, 2015 'tis I, lord of the TT Performante and holder of the sacred chalice of Turbo. There's no problem TT'ing a vert, that works just fine and the only real issue I've encountered is passing tech at some events that want you to have a cage to go over a certain mph. Most places let me through once I gave them the particular on the pop-out rollover system and, of course, you sign a waiver. I have about 6,000 miles on the build and 10,000 on the car and it's pretty much bulletproof on all the set-ups (800, 1000, 1150, 1250+ hp settings). Let me know if you have any specific questions. There are pics and vids on an old thread where I was going to sell it LamboPower 4 Sale thread but I ended up keeping it. And that was before duhawks and kisco killed the market. I kind of want to go get a Huracan and see what's up though so if you're interested PM me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

iBoost Report post Posted May 9, 2015 Thanks ! Correction: TT570SL + 6 Speed = WIN Agreed. That car is a keeper! How are the 6-speeds in LP570's? Are the smooth with positive feedback? Better or worse than a 997 TT? Viper? Plastic mess-06? So far Porsche's have some of the nicest manuals I have driven. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have an 08 Spyder. It was a UGR 2R and now I upgraded to a Stage X and did a manual conversion. There is no feeling that comes close to experiencing that power with the top down...
