He just found a bigger hill, that's all. :signLOL:

I jest, its an amazing machine.. How often do you launch this car... Seems your always posting times, everything still working ok? :happy2:

Everything is great at the moment, the best it has ever run. The Clutchpacks can take a phenomenal amount of abuse and I'd swear that the more I abuse it with launches, the better it gets! :grin:

I've simply lost count of the number of full bore launches I've done in the last year or so. At GTI spring feat I ran down the strip 19 times using launch in under 6 hrs and it was perfectly fine.

I wish! :smiley:

As long as I'm downhill and the Lamborghini is uphill I'm okay!

Exhaust development update V2...........

It is on and running, still have the titanium tips to have fitted, but the slash cut stainless ones will more than do for now. Sounds amazing.   :drool:

Just what I was wanting, more noise when I press the loud pedal and some awesome burbling on the overrun, but tempered with no droning when cruising at motorway speeds.

The Milltek was very good, but the new exhaust is spot on. Whether there is a power gain remains to be seen and I shall certainly take up Niki's offer of a return dyno run at R-Tech to see for sure.  8)

Why not just proper big turbo instead of missing about with hybrids?

I agree.  But id imagine brand loyalty and after sale support through Statllers.

Just been debating the pro's and cons of going for an L04XX with Steve Jr.

Looks like this time I won't be resisting :signLOL:

~.75 sec

I think around that too, with 120+mph terminals. 8)

Im surprised you never went straight to the LO4xx from the offset tbh.

Anyway when are they actually going to name the LO4xx?  Surely enough have them now to replace those xx's with some numbers?
