raylambo Report post Posted May 7, 2017 I like the fact that race exhust is lighter and better quality steel finish than the crappy standard one but it was designed for the lp700 not SV which is why the surround does not fit on SV.. From a distance it looks like 2 rectangular holes . Factory should design one for SV Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

VCR Report post Posted May 15, 2017 I like the fact that race exhust is lighter and better quality steel finish than the crappy standard one but it was designed for the lp700 not SV which is why the surround does not fit on SV.. From a distance it looks like 2 rectangular holes . Factory should design one for SV Why would the factory bother to design one for the SV if all the race exhausts are already flying off the shelves from being bought by the SV owners? Different strokes I suppose but the surround that fits around the race exhaust's dual tips looks lame IMO. The race exhaust had dual rectangular tips with slanted ends. The outer surface is chromed with the Lamborghini script edged onto the top of the left tip. Putting the surround on it substantially covered the majority of the chrome part and almost partially covered the edged Lambo script. Why would one want that? If from a distant the race exhaust tips look like 2 rectangular holes, then a regular exhaust looks like 1 big hexagon hole and a race exhaust tips with the surround look like 2 rectangular holes with 1 big hexagon rim surrounding them. Perhaps that's just me but I don't find that last combo optically pleasing. According to Lambo SpA, installation for the surround piece for the race exhaust on a LP700 is optional. On regular and even the occasional spirited driving, the surround piece is not necessary. It's only "recommended" if one tracks the car for hours non end on a weekly basis. It offers additional shielding from the possible heat-related damages to the LP700 rear end from the race exhaust. On the SV, the entire bodywork near the exhaust has been redesigned to factor in the heat issue; that along with the downsizing of the exhaust itself provided more space for proper heat dissipation so fundamentally the surround does not fit because it needs not to be there.

raylambo Report post Posted May 16, 2017 True. The factory will not bother if customers are buying the old race exhaust (that was designed for the LP 700) for the SV. It's all matter of taste what shape you like. I don't like that last combo either. It would have been nice if an SV version was designed by the factory or it doesn't change colour to yellow / brown or design a remote door opener etc All wishful thinking ... BTW, I found out that the material is not chrome (as I thought) but steel and managed to find a place that polished it for me so it is shiny again -for now lol.

dj700 Report post Posted June 9, 2017 I've been trying to get one of these on my SVR but dealer hasn't had one now going on 2 months since ordered. I tried calling a few others in the area (So Cal) and even Nevada and no one had it. Anyone know if there's any production issues with the exhausts?

TeamSalamone Report post Posted June 9, 2017 I was so upset the first time I hears my first SV start up... so quiet. I think I started this thread. anyway, Toof knows what I know and I am happy he is thrilled with it. The Exhaust and Tune make the car far more quick... its faster ... more horse power and it sounds as mean as it looks. I love my exhaust!! I would never (ever) modify with aftermarket exhaust (Yep I just wont do it) and I am thrilled that this is available. I love mine .. although its yellow/brownish not chrome anymore ... but at least the freaking car sounds like a beast!! My God I love the SV. Since day 1 I loved the SV ... now I love it more Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
