1005 hp Lamborghini Gallardo by Heffner Performance

After the Bugatti Veyron, and the recently launched Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport, another car hits the 1000 hp limit: the Lamborghini Gallardo. With a little help from Heffner Performance, the Gallardo you see in the photos is powered by the same 5.0-liter high-rev V10 engine as the "standard” version but with a little sweetening from Heffner develops now an astonishing 1005 hp and 765lb-ft. The vehicle uses the same AWD system but due to the big amount of power a two stage boost controller limit has been installed for the 1st and 2nd gear.

The modifications for the car are extreme: the tuner installed new steels cylinder liners, new forged pistons, bearings, a new twin-turbo system with custom exhaust system, blow-off valves, Carrillo Billet Steel connecting rods rated for 1000 hp and a new clutch capable to transfer the amount of power. Also, new water pumps and fuel injectors were installed, as well as a Superleggera rear diffuser and spoiler. No words about the performances of the car but imagine that at 1005 hp the car does the 0-60 mph sprint in less than 4 seconds and has a top speed of 200+ mph.
