SP Engineering is very much already known in California tuning industry. They are most famed for their projects on turbocharging supercars such as Carreras, GTRs, M3s, Gallardos, Murcielagos and many other type of cars and today's entry is about their Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 Twin Turbo project car.
Lamborghini, an Italian supercar maker is known to make fast and very fast cars. Murcielago was born back in 2001 and until today it has gone through several facelifts with different version given to each one of them. First came equipped with 6.2 liter V12 engine producing 570HP and later in 2006, the newer Murcielago generation known as LP640 was born. LP640 receives bigger engine with a displacement of 6.4 liter producing 630HP at 8000RPM. And, this Murcielago laid upon you is one of the rare breed LP640.
SP Engineering had goals before making this project. The goals are to ensure the car will make power even on RON 91 fuel which also will make it work with the stock clutch and E-Gear. They also intended to have the twin turbo setup to be OEM-like as most of the parts are hidden from view. Everything is done on a stock motor.
Which means, every add-ons are located outside of the engine block. The turbos are custom made and a single TiAL wastegate is used to prevent from overboosting. With the boost set to limit at 6 Psi (0.4 Bar), this LP640TT madea whooping 700WHP with a torque of 890Nm powering all of its four tyres.
