Don't know if you guys have seen this.

I did. The 570s had the best reaction time and got a jump off the start.

 

I AM BOLTING ONE OF THESE ON TO MY R8 WHEN I GET BACK FROM EURO DELIVERY

 

no one is fighting against traction....no one is impressed in this cars realy...sony playstations?...sorry ..

 

570 and 488 with some massaging (because we just can't leave things alone ) will be a whole new ball-game! The next few 1/2 mile events will be lots of fun!

 

Hey I agree with basically with you. That is why i still have my TTS
Otherwise the V 10 engine is fabulous.

 

These cars ran 168 at the 1/2 mile and that was VF"s car so I would assume it was a little hotter than the standard kit. They run and sound good but 33k for a $6,500 blower and 3,000 dollar tune

 

Old R8s have the VF 750 ,750Hp. The new one is about 809 hp, VF 800.
the total with install is $37 K, price beats the turbo bolt on's, start at like $45k and up, Hp options to like 1800 Hp. Check out Underground Racing.
Otherwise if I had to chose, it would be my TTS

 

Spend 10k more and do a turbo bolt on.

Or be happy at 10 mph over stock for 33k 🙈

So what speed is your UGR Gallardo doing the 1/2 mi?

 

Just to give you an idea , lp560 with supercharger will do maximum 650whp with intake and exhaust but bolt on tt lp560 will do 850whp on dyno on 93. So huge difference in dyno number . Also 60-130 for a tt system is 5.1-5.5 . Superchargers are 1.something slower .

Also tt bolt on hurucans runs 4s 60-130mph on syvec ecu

 

I have a gen1 R8 V10 with ESS tuning supercharger kit(760hp claimed). I put down 610whp and 515wtq on AWD Mustang dyno. I did 160.6mph in 1/2 mile on hot summer day and 6.5s 60-130. For the price of the kit($22k installed) and the result, I'm very happy with it. Stock gen 1 is doing like 145mph and 8.xx 60-130.

 

Ran a gen 1 stassis R8 v10 a few years back against my 997.2 which was typical stage 2 bolt ons doing low 160's in the half mile. I'm sure the new cars and new blower kits make a lot more power.

 

Same result vs a Stasis supercharged R8 V10 with my car:

 

As a bolt on RWD manual it went 179.00


As a 1500hp AWD manual my best is 212.88
