  1. Sorry, my dyno shop was shut down and we couldn't get any runs. But she sure is a beauty.
  2. And it has two exit pipes like Stardropper....hmmm....
  3. Well looks like that may happen. I have a dyno shop that wants to do a collaboration with my mechanic shop on displaying all aspects of this exhaust on social media. So we will know once and for all just how much hp is loss to have this glorious sound.
  4. I totally get your point and I agree with you. I went back and forth for weeks on deciding to sell my stardropper to someone else because people were scaring me about the horsepower loss. I literally thought for hours on this decision. I think what tipped the scale for me was realizing that we are way behind on the power curve at this point with the car world (as you mentioned), that racing just about anyone will yield a bad loss. So my thinking is that a 10-20 pony loss is not gonna change anything since we're so far at the bottom. So I decided to keep the Stardropper. Also, I'm hoping my ecu tune will help neutralize the loss.
  5. Yep it's hard to give the AV a high top without a raggedy bottom. Ask Gintani and Kreissieg.
  6. No, I have Capristo on right now. Smoother sound. I felt the best "all around" exhaust out, until I heard Stardropper. I didn't know how to get Stardropper so when i heard Gintani copied it, i tried him out. But he couldn't deliver. However I'm so glad i finally found a way to Stardropper thanks to effspot and lambo_jesus.
  7. And I will be the second. :-) But I'm not an IG/YT type guy, so that doesn't even matter, lol. You and Doc can have the limelight, I just want the sound. :-)
  8. I tried Powercraft, Capristo, and even a failed order with Gintani who couldn't deliver. But nothing touches the King. Thank you @LAMBO_JESUS for bringing the King to America. Click link below. http://instagr.am/p/CHSt_mIpvhk/
  9. Well this thread now has a conclusion..... Turns out Gintani couldn't make the exhaust for other models. I waited 2 months on my order to find out that he promised something that couldn't be delivered. He gave me a refund. At least he can do SVJ's though. BTW Stardropper (Brilliant by Sasaki-san) does not weigh 80kg. Lambo_Jesus is installing his today and he said the whole box with packing didn't weigh 30lbs.
  10. Well if power is the main concern, out of all these you mentioned, Capristo sounds the best. And btw, there are some who would risk your "alleged" Stardropper power loss for that insane sound. Just check out Lambo_Jesus...he's installing his today.
  11. Old thread.....thought I'd update it for 2020. Stardropper is now King.
  12. Oh I feel you on that. I remember all that. I do have a tune on the ECU for more hp, so that should balance me out.
  13. Gintani has a titanium option, but at 18K and an unproven system I stuck with steel.
  14. Makes more sense. Thanks for explaining. Fortunately for me, I'm only interested in the sound and not the horsepower.
  15. Yes it is with the equal length headers design that only the Japanese have done over the years for the AV. It's the secret to the high pitch. Just YouTube Stardropper SVJ.
  16. True. And actually we don't know what the other models are capable of in sound until they get this pipe design. So I will definitely be posting my results when my pipes come in. That was the whole point of this thread....can Gintani produce for me what he promised....we shall see.
  17. I bought it from a fellow Aventador owner for my car, and then sold it shortly after to another.
  18. I had Powercraft. It doesn't scream like this. These Gintani's are equal length headers. That's the condition needed for the pitch.
  19. This is exactly what I kept telling Gintani in our 30 minute discussion, but he kept promising me over and over that the other models will sound even better. I kept making him promise and guarantee it so many times that he eventually said I don't know what else to say that will get you to trust me.... After he said that, I took the gamble and ordered the exhaust. So we shall see if he keeps his word on this.
  20. I know right! I'm surprised more buzz isn't being made about this because it could be a game changer for the legacy of the Aventador. No longer will people say "The Murcie was the last great sound of Lamborghini". Ugh, so tired of hearing that.
