Nothing sounds better than a Murciélago on a dyno.
The car in question is a 2003 Lamborghini Murciélago owned by a gentleman named Ace. He purchased the V-12 Lambo with around 19,000 miles on the clock, but it is now approaching the 60,000-mile mark on the odometer. During that time, the car has remained nearly mechanically stock. As it sits today, the car runs a titanium exhaust system with an X-pipe, while a Gintani tune is installed on the ECU.
Lamborghini says that the early Murciélago V-12 is good for 572 horsepower and 479 lb-ft of torque at the crank. Strapping the Lambo up to K&N’s all-wheel drive dyno, it was always clear the car wouldn’t get close to that figure during the test. That said, it is somewhat surprising to learn that the V-12 was only able to muster ratings of 455 hp and 435 hp during its two respective passes.
Those figures actually make the Murciélago the least powerful car to be tested in the “Dyno Everything” series. That’s not a knock against Lamborghini in any way, but more a testament to the metal that Hoonigan brings through the door. Even if the Murci wasn’t able to nab a top spot on the charts, Hoonigan will be hard pressed to find a better sounding machine to put through that test.
