Thanks guys!!

The car should be started by this weekend/early next week. All the parts are coming back from coating so the final stuff should be wrapped up soon.

I'll some video up when the car gets started.

Filter relocation plate installed and fittings installed.

Hello,
I do not mean to intrude on your thread but I joined L4P to maybe help you avoid any issues in the future. Not sure if you have allready looked into the schematic of how the 5.0 V10 oil circuitry works but usually (for us) when we do relocation kits for Audi , VW or Mercedes-Benz we add an M14 check valve into the plate so as not to allow oil drain back. Might be a suggestion to look into.

Excellent build btw!

Water pump mounted

Car pretty much back together

Nice progress! What all is left?

That downshifting.....sounded godly!

How do you determine the optimal cutout dimensions where the X pipe halves meet? Eyeball it? I think the size and shape must significantly impact whether you get good velocity and scavenging vs. increased turbulence.

Kean?

isn't 575 rwhp a bit low? How much do you think you will be getting out of it once the tuning is done.

575whp is actually like 730 crank hp and tuning wasn't even close to maxed out.... I have good feelings about this car.

You also have to remember the earlier Gallardo 5L motors are weaker than the 5.2L LP560/570 motors.

 

[suzukirider1300]

Are LP560s, 560hp (est) at the crank or flywheel?

 

[TimR]

That number is sounds more like WHP, can not blame him for running a conservative reliable tune.

 

[CDubb]

Crank/Flywheel basically the same thing and yes.

 

[suzukirider1300]

Crank/Flywheel basically the same thing and yes.

Sorry about the dumb question, I meant at the flywheel or at the tires.

 

[Kean]

This is at the wheels.

This power level is at the base wastegate spring. I will be turning it up to 7-8 psi which will around 650-675 RWHP. I just got the car running and had to go to the TX2K12 meet so I didn't have any extra time to turn the power up.

 

[Bawls]

How much will it be putting to the wheels when it's all tuned and everything

 

[Flat Black]

650 at the wheels should equal low 800's at the crank. We are all spoiled to seeing 1000-1500 WHP from UGR and AMS, etc., but 800 crank hp in a 3500 pound car will still be a rocket with less wheelspin and drivetrain stress.

Very cool build thread with lots of details and nice fab work. :beer:

Nice build. Is the oil filter relocation plate something that is available or strictly one off?
