Can't get enough of the sound of those turbo's. LOVE IT!

so this is the humble guy i need to see, if i win the lottery :-)

sounds like the clutch slips after gear changes.

i was at a caffeine and exotic event in atlanta and one guy had his 1500hp gallardo from heffner. absolultey beast!

I want so bad...damn that's an amazing car.

They used to sell a dealer option of a twin turbo kit for the Diablo, platinum motors offered it. It was called the Diablo VTTT 750bhp.

We've said this a million times. Underground wasn't interested in working with us, and Heffner, being the first one to TT a modern lambo, is the better story.

4:14 that smile and stop in mid sentence from the turbo spool, priceless

Just for $100000 and $40000... that's it!

sounds like the clutch is slipping?

I went to heffners shop a month ago and saw this exact car on the lift.. talked to Jason about what I need to do for my future in autos.. he's a great dude

i believe he's referring to the new Europe-only RS6 Avant, which comes with a twin-turbo version of the 5.2L V10 making (I think) 575 HP.

800 whp on 7psi damn

"pick up a Lamborghini for about... one hundred grand" .... *pulls 100,000$ out of ass*

Heffner also makes a 1500 WHP Gallardo, it was the gray car in the shop shots. People like to conveniently forget that.

I love how you write your opinion, not a fact, and then just follow it up with "fact, not opinion." That's some funny shit right there.

So, is he really trying to say the Gallardo is a nice car to beef up because it costs "just" 100k? Fair point, I've got some change lying around here, should add up to 100k easily...

Thumbs up if you saw the ant @4:58!

i love how matt is talking about the big boys SUPRAS , how much power can you make on them , and how the supra is still popular today . driving a 900 hp lambo is sick , driving a 1200 hp supra is ever sicker.

I love how at 3:18 Matt lets the twin-turbo get in a few words. Phenomenal video. At first I thought the music was too loud but then the twin-turbo shut me the hell up.

900hp Lambo in 2012 was up there. There are street driven 2200hp+ Corvettes, GTRs, Lambos etc. around these days. What will 2018 bring us, 3000hp street cars?

800.... 9000hp

No, we are not comparing cars based on cost and horsepower. We are comparing the Supra, which started the big turbo power craze with kids and young adults in the early 2000's with the Lamborghini, which is the kind of car those people like to tune once they grow up and get some real money. I thought we made that perfectly clear.

i went to Heffners shop in MD back in the mid 90's for a dyno day..hell of a nice guy and he had some sick Vipers in his shop back then..what he was known for at the time. Could see his attention to detail and passion back then strapping our little imports down hour after hour and getting the best numbers out of them. Glad to see his business and name has grown and he is going great. He'll get my lambo when my lottery #'s hit. :-)

I only thought Heffner made Playboy magazines..I never thought he tuned cars too. Wtf is up with that?

Seems to dub down right after a gear shift

Heffner is the shit! Not just because they're in my city but they build some badass reliable cars!

Mr. Heffner is a genius, he understands that you don't always need 12-1300whp he understands reliability is key, and theres no point in making power if you can't enjoy it.

it ain't a lp-560 anymore :')

german engineering? i thought this car was italian.

Love the way Matt pauses and smirks @3:22 just to listen to that V10 noise haha

I think drive has one of the best channels on youtube

nothing to do with the video but ive had to sit threw this Renault advert 6 times this morning..its bullshit

From the perspective of a Heffner and UGR Gallardo owner, The Heffner blows me away in performance and is a thousand times better than my UGR lambo. My UGR lambo is a stage 2R Gallardo and has nowhere near the capabilities of the Heffner. The 2R lambo has broken 6 times and I expect more in the future unfortunately. If anyone asks, it may be much less powerful, but the Heffner is waaaaay better in every aspect.

Heffner designed and installed the twin turbo kit on a Lamborghini Gallardo in 2004 dude.

musto (Big Muscle) is a Quarter 2/Quarter 4 show. He'll be back in October. Tuned is on Quarter 1/Quarter 3. We alternate, which helps, since The Smoking Tire crew shoots both shows.

i thought the Lamborghini was Italian... This guy ^

that turbo whistle is great !!!!!

That lambo sounds so awesome. Add a turbo or two to any application and its a beautiful thing.

the things you're asking for are unreasonable given our budgets. And that's not what our show is about. The show is about the story of these tuning companies and their products. We don't focus on the car itself, more on what the tuner has done to it. The Gallardo is old news, so nothing that's stock on it is worth mentioning. The only thing we're focusing on is the power upgrade, and there's only so much room on public roads when you can hit 150 mph in 10 seconds. Tracks are too expensive.

I love that Matt keeps interrupting his own monologue with smiling.

It was slipping a bit, but that's because the car had nearly 20,000 miles on it since the kit was installed with a stock clutch, and he tracks the car often. He wanted to let me kick the shit out of it for a day before swapping the new clutch in.

we have a sendheiser studio microphone on an XLR cable on the exhaust while I'm driving, on input 2 on the HPX170, with my sendheiser wireless lav on input 1. Tom does a great job of balancing it out.

we want to work with people who want to work with us. All the shops we've worked with have generated business as a direct result of us showcasing their products, no matter what I say about them, and we make it a priority to respect their cars and drive them (more or less) responsibly. If a shop doesn't want to work with us, it's their loss. But it's really annoying when people keep bitching about why we didn't go to UGR, as if I wouldn't make that phone call or don't know who they are.

I love everything about this video, the build up, framing, and subject. Lovely!

because I've written it ten different times in the comments section of this video and every other video we've made.

I love this video. It is well put together. Im a subscriber for sure

This thing is badass. A TT Gallardo is definitely one of my dream cars. One day man, one day.

and by the way, it really pisses me off when we go all the way across the country, spend our time and our money making these films, with 7 years of car reviewing experience behind it, only to hear a commenter say they want to see Chris Harris drive it.

yes, and Heffner did it in 2003.

3:48 The cows were like, "we knew it was coming".

I like the diversity of projects this firm takes on, ,

No matter who you are, you should always give props to people who innovate something bold and new for other companies to build off of; Heffner was the first for TT-Lamborghinis. For the ones who don’t seem to acknowledge that before starting a bench race and arguing about cars they have never seen, driven, or owned…you’re only a PS3 warrior and miss the point. Even UGR acknowledges Heffner and continues to show respect while in direct competition.

This channel keeps pumping out great videos all the time, also has great videos done in the past. One of the best channels I've subbed.

when these came out they were "ehh" because the Mercy was soo sick and this wasn't really a poster car. ppl who could afford it would obviously get it, it was affordable to upper class ppl that weren't exactly Mark Cuban and that was cool but nobody really dreamed about owning them. Now you have the successors out there to both mercy and gallardo (huracan and aventador included) and lambo had made some awesome variants of all 4 of these car but to me i think when you look at a lambo to take and modify the Gallardo is hands down my favorite and it took until now for its design to really look sick, i think it was ahead of its time in a lot of ways. The gallardo isn't my favorite as stock but it is awesome nonetheless modded or not but it makes a sick tuner. idk how you explain to such a flamboyant, over the top company such as Lamborghini that in some ways less but it truly is. that modern ish wedge shape looks super aggressive to me, doesn't have as much crap going on and it looks furious to me. i think its kind of funny how in a way this car is "coming back" they look so good, simple and so much going on at the same time.

we haven't found one worth filming yet, and all the really fast ones I see just break all the time. Reliability above all.

Props to anyone who ventures into the pricey game of Lamborghinis but UGR in Charlotte definitely perfected the TT Lambo game. KC and his guys do great work and they're cool as hell. They beat the crap out of those cars over and over and over again and they haven't had any major problems that I've seen/heard of. Nothing like cruising down the interstate in Charlotte and seeing a black Lambo fly by at like 190 haha

My goodness what a sensational car, but for some reason im still in love with the VF Lambo, even though the turbo noise in this car is amazing.

I"m a mechanical engineer just starting my first job and my dream car is a LP-560. Give me 5 years and I'll be stopping by

The stick cars will hold the power just fine.

The perfect man for the job driving this car! I love Lambo's but I think all that horsepower would be wasted on me. Thanks for another great video Matt. :)

This episode was great Matt. Idk why but it felt more more special than some other ones. Awesome intro too!

No, I said Heffner was the first person to install a Twin Turbo kit on a Gallardo. Not THIS Gallardo.

Because the name of the show isn't "Cars with the most possible horsepower." It's "Tuned." If we only tested a version of a car with the most possible horsepower imagineable, where would we go from there?

DAMN! you guys are doing a really good job! keep up the good work this is better then TV!!

I like the way the clutch slippage ;)

That smile at 4:15 though, when he puts the pedal to the metal... that's why I like driving :P

So stoked when I saw the title

The Heffner kit for the R8 is nearly identical to the Gallardo kit, they offer both.

I agree, there is clutch slip after gearchange. Maybe its mapped/setup that way to save the transmisson?

Thats a awesome Lambo, Great episode Matt

the suepension is stock, and then engine allows you to go way faster than normally acceptable. it's good in the corners, but its highlight is straight line speed.

I've also seen many stock Gallardo's that have beroken down. Unless the engines have broken down directly due to too much boost (basically grenaded?), it may have nothing to do with the modifications. Those E.Gear systems blow hydraulic lines all the time.

very well spoken tuner well done

Absolutely beautiful....

We'd love to do that, you just have to convince JF to give us more money for a track, and even more money to dedicating a full extra day to shooting that stuff.

I love that noise.

that heffner dude is cool. kind of like a quiet type, diabolical scientist that you don't want to screw with

My 11 year younger brother used to use this channel as well... And getting a video is pretty hard when I now live 7000 miles away

2) It is slipping a bit. This car had 20,000 miles on it, about half of them track, on the original clutch. Heffner was going to swap the clutch out, but let me kick the shit out of the car first so he could give it back to the customer freshy-fresh. 3) The lag isn't that bad. Lambo's are high revving cars anyway, and the TT's boost curve matches it well. Peak torque is around 4,000 RPM, which is where things start to get fun in a stock engine anyway.

Yes, the supra shots were from Titan Motorsports, that's next week's episode.

The gallardo has to be one of the top 3 best sounding lamborghinis ever

Epic video dude At he must have been going almost 80 mph! Whoa

i'll agree with that, Finding a High Horspepower 4cyl that can compete with the array of vehicles in your videos and still be daily driven and reliable must be nearly impossible. I just hope to see a Buschur or Ams vehicle shown someday

love that when he asked is there such thing as too much power

Love this era of /Drive with the end music

Holy crap how many people don't know how to read? UGR was not interested in shooting with drive. Heffner was the first to TT a gallardo. Lamborghini is owned by VOLKSWAGEN hence, the German engineering part. Nobody that is commenting on this owns a UGR or Heffner gallardo so stop acting like you know which company is more reliable. Yes, the clutch is slipping in the video, Heffner replaced the clutch the day after Matt shot this bit.

In general changing gaskett thickness is only used for incremental changes. I have heard of using a spacer and a gaskett either side, however that's dodgy. Usually people turbocharging an originally na motor will run low compression forged or billet pistons. I believe the low compression pistons are usually made by making the top face of the piston concave.

so does Heffner. But only like 1/10 of the customers go for that, and this is their most popular package. Besides, Heffner put twin turbo's on a Lambo three years before Underground did, and that's the story, not who makes the most power.

clutch slippin like crazy

Matt Farah, you're my favorite, man. Keep 'em coming!

this car is tracked on road courses almost every weekend, and the clutch is starting to slip a bit on hard pulls at about 20,000 miles. Heffner replaced it after we kicked the shit out of it for a day.

I believe that was the back woods of Florida, pretty beautiful indeed

Matt i'm loving this show and have been following your videos for the past 3 years. the content you have been putting out in the past few months have been television quality. I would love to see a video involving a 4g63 (Evo or DSM) or a Subaru platform. The aftermarket for them is immense and would certainly draw the views

the turbos spooling up is such an amazing sound! i want my saturn to make that sound when i start moving lol

Yep; the beauty of modern Lambos is getting parts from the local Audi dealer. Believe me, a LIFESAVER for any owner.

That thing was a monster. And yes its V12 had 4 Garrett T2 turbos.

you are so lucky, that is one awesome car! nice vid btw.

They are great glasses, I bought a pair over a year ago after seeing Matt in a video. Pricey but high quality with polarized lenses. About $250 from Dillon Optics.

That thing is sick
