Don't you know Underground Racing Lamborghinis age like fine wine? The older they get, the better they get. So the cars naturally dribble out more hp as they get older.

If I may make a suggestion... Have your pcm speed density (sd) tuned by someone with either HP or efiLive and ditch the Mass air flow sensor. It opens a whole world of possibilities as far as a clean intake routing. Not to mention the added benefits of power and a two step with the efiLive operating system. It also gets the engine ready for boost if you add a 3 bar sensor... I have no affiliation to either but as a hard core geek the efiLive seems to have more stuff to meddle with. http://www.efilive.com/index.php?option=co...&Itemid=139

This one works well. Don't wear it out on me. Hot hostess seating me at a restaurant: "Follow me please." Me: "To the ends of the Earth."

Slip out to her car and drop expensive watch in pass. Seat. At the end of the day, kindly help her to her car with her belongings. (She's supposed to be in pain.) Spot watch. Fein fury, indignation, whip out cell to call cops. Don't forget to take pics and selfies. Profit.

Did Duplicate Performance show up?

Man... Changing plugs on that Frankenstein doesn't look to be fun. OTOH, I've always wanted to LS1 a 944 turbo. (Had the best driveline parts/brakes for v8 abuse.) Love the project..

After the nice torsional buffeting that car took I'd be surprised if Lamborghini didn't want the car back for chassis analysis. The lack of collision damage, if any would reveal good clean data on how well the car sustained the extreme loading on the carbon fiber monocoque, especially coupled with live video and information from the car's modules. You can only reproduce so much in computer modeling and testing labs.

Here you go. http://www.streetfire.net/video/lamborghin...way_2395336.htm

Damn you to hell. After getting through that distracting mess of pics and reading your clever comment I had to comb through those pics again to look for the price at the pump. Where the hell do you live that has a better price?

He states the pistons result in 9.0:1 compression ratio. With the enormous dish the picture shows, getting to 7:0:1 would need a dish lower than the current pin height. Even shortening the rod appropriately, the lack of any realistic quench would result in a terrible running engine that would probably need a shot of ether just to get started. Any idea of the boost level 2,000+ would require given the current power and boost levels of the TT Murci's already out there?

Great piece on the ecu. http://www.mclarenelectronics.com/News/Art...n-Sky-Sports-F1

Good to hear. What most people do when they're looking from the most out of a car is to begin datalogging and let the car tell them what it wants. Get a scanner that allows you to view parameters such as ignition timing and knock retard. Intake air temps and MAF flow are nice to have as well. This may be done as simply with a $20 eBay bluetooth unit, or it may require a factoryish diagnostic tool. You may have to try a few different ones on your car to see which will give you the data you're looking for.You simply want the lowest octane fuel that doesn't create spark knock, which causes the ECU to pull timing as a result. Any higher octane is just a waste, as others here have said. You can then move on to things like modifying the air inlet system for lower air temps and more flow., or trying different exhaust systems. The gains you can track via airflow through the MAF sensors. In addition, if you manage to piss the car off and get a check engine light you'll be able to read the code and reset it Here's a generic example of the software/hardware used. (This is NOT an endorsement for this product!) http://laplogger.com/ It's a fun and addictive slippery slope. I used to spend hours experimenting and finding tiny gains everywhere in a car without any real bolt on mods and the sum of all the little gains made the car more crisp and rewarding overall. Good luck!

Told ya you'd like it. The phone clearly feels like it was designed to run this in the first place. I wonder if they put the cart before the horse when they shipped the phones with Gingerbread?

I just got out of an epic fight with my RAZR. Completely self induced, mind you. I had gotten impatient and decided to put the "Official/Leaked" version of ICS on it, and ended up bricking it multiple times. I finally got it unbricked, (now hereto referred by me as The 3 day Trial of Pain) and got ICS loaded and rooted. (allows wireless tethering, ad block install, ect ect) You guys are going to love ICS. It's like someone shipped my phone to UGR for turbos. Just wait for the OTA, and save yourself the pain. As good as the Razr is, it gets that much better on Ice Cream.

You could always cannibalize a unit like this. http://www.bestbuyautoequipment.com/UVIEW-...vu580500-03.htm Unless the goal is to build it yourself. I have one if you'd like me to crack it open and snap some pics.

On the older gallardos the front lift system is hydraulically driven from the power steering pump.. The 560/570 lift system has its own pump and reservoir but remains hydraulic.

There's no saving face when you have no pants on in public?

I have a RAZR MAXX, and I have come from a long line of HTC smart phones, beginning with the ol' PPC-6700. God I loved that brick. An HTC Touch, an Eris, and finally the Incredible 2 rounded out my phones over the span of nearly ten years, all rooted or modded. Anyway, this is my first Moto phone and there are very few worth wile rom's for it. All the Dev's are waiting for the OTA ICS to drop either this month or next. Then (I hope) the flurry of good stuff will begin. As far as the non-removable battery goes, it's really a non issue. If you push and hold the power button and the vol down button the phone will (reluctantly) just shut off much like holding the power button on a pc. Battery life is on par with my rooted Dinc2, which is to say excellent. I can go 1- 2 days of just viciously beating on the battery before it pleads for the charger. 3 days easy if I'm mindful of my use. If you were hell bent on taking the battery out, it does come out, you just have to work a little harder at it then just popping it out with a fingernail. Guys have vids up swapping the batteries between the RAZR and the RAZR MAXX to see if they'd fit. The phone works well enough for me and the last OTA update did help the few issues that existed. The 4g LTE will hit 40+ meg download speeds and I've seen as high as 15 megs upload speed. Totally ridiculous for a phone, but great for moving the occasional large file up or down from the laptop with a tether. Kicks the shit out of the speeds from the T1 at work. I normally turn off 4g as 3g is much easier on the battery and fine for streaming tunes, watching vids, or whatever else I choose to do. The RAZR also has a very neat feature called "smart actions". You can set it up so the phone ringer and brightness go to max when it sees your work network, then go silent and dim when you go home. It'll also pull up your music program when you plug into the headphone jack. It will respond to location, time of day, movement, and quite a few other "triggers", and you can set up the response to do pretty much anything. Send texts, emails automatically, turn on or off phone features, really too much for me to describe here, but in summary it makes your "smart" phone intelligent and aware. Did I mention that Google's Ice Cream Sandwitch will be push updated to the phones by the end of Q2?

Here's how a cobra can scoot. This looks like too much fun. The audio is off a bit but if you watch it a few times you kinda sync up to it.

AFAIK Underground Racing can answer you there. See this thread. http://www.lambopower.com/forum/index.php?...aded&start=

Wish granted. Heard UGR won the event.

I think follow up pics are in order with the bumper on. Simply a stunning car. Congrats, Ray!

Call Kevin at Underground. He's got a hell of a tranny guy. 704--361-3443

It's a car. Just drive the poo out of it and wash it when your done.
