  1. thats very interesting. please post what you find out, im very curious. so the murci uses steel h beams? as does earlier diablos as well? ive never heard of carrillo before, but it sounds like they are a good manufacturer. ill admit to being a little disappointed when i learned diablos up to and including the sv didnt use titanium rods, but if the murci doesnt use them then maybe they arent all they are cracked up to be?
  2. so this statement: "The new 6 litre V12 engine is equippedwith titanium connecting rods and a lighter crankshaft to improve performance." taken from http://www.lamborghiniregistry.com/Diablo/...lo60/index.html is wrong? Most sites Ive seen say the 6.0 has titanium rods.
  3. thats interesting. when you say the airfilter is so open you can see through it, isnt that bad for the engine? also, do you have pictures of the tray youre talking about? id really like to see that to better understand how that works.
  4. I believe I have my info straight, but just wanted to double check. Just out of curiosity is all, but titanium connecting rods first appreared in the GT and carried over into the 6.0, and were not used in models earlier than that including the SV right? (dont know about the SE and Jota models, those special animals are even harder to find concrete info on through the internet)
  5. i guess for now ill just leave it in and test it out before making any decisions. if its a junky exhuast, which seems like a good possibility, i can replace it any time. i wish i had more experience with the different exhausts. even searching for youtube videos hasnt really been great for hearing the various systems. and yes i will post pics soon. as soon as the car arrives which i suspect will be in a week or so, ill break out my good cam and take my own high rez pics and go through a more formal introduction. i hope to stick around this place for awhile to come!
  6. interesting... al burtoni is just what i assumed he meant. i talked to the previous owner, and among many things he told me about the car was that it had a "sport exhaust" installed by "Milano" in Gilroy CA. He said the guy who did it was big big into Lamborghinis, very famous, knows what hes doing, etc. So after a quick google search, all this pointed to Al Burtoni. But maybe I have something else? I dont care either way, I was planning on doing exhaust anyway. Looks like i should still plan on doing it.
  7. thanks for the input guys. normally i would just wait to hear it myself, but the car im buying is going through a couple minor fixes at the dealer before its shipped out, valve cover gaskets, water pump gasket, paint chips etc. they sent me an email yesterday asking if i wanted them to ceramic coat the exhaust for 200 dollars. im trying to decide if its worth it to spend 200 and then leave the exhaust in the car, or spend thousands more on a capristo or something. i figured any aftermarket exhaust would satisfy my sound requirements, but Im thinking twice based on what you guys are saying.
  8. Allan, Thanks for the response. Ive found the AB exhuast to be an odd pieve, love it or hate it sort of thing. Ive heard people say its the best one there is. When you say its the biggest POS, is it just really poor quality? not well made?
  9. Hey guys, first time post here, good forum you have. Im looking at a Diablo that has the Al Burtoni exhaust and Im curious what people think of it. Ive read fairly mixed reviews on the man himself and his other products, havent heard much about the exhaust. If a Diablo already has the AB exhaust on it, is it good enough, or is it worth spending thousands more for a Capristo or Kriesseg or ? How does it sound compared to others?
