Default supercharging or turbocharging Murcielago

hey guys, does anyone know of a tuner that has successfully supercharged or turbocharged a murc? Orton Perfomance out of Cummings GA has offered to do it, but they have only done the Gallardo's to date, no Murcs yet. Anyone have any suggestions?

More power means more fun. As far as the clutch issue goes. South Bend Clutch will custom make clutches for anything made to your specs. I've driven their stuff, and see it being made. They produce high quality clutches day in and day out.

Here is their web site: http://www.southbendclutch.com/

It's better to Twin turbo.You can run more boost so you get more horsepower.

Heffner Performance would be the logical choice. They have done a couple of Gallardos so far. His shop is a few minutes away from where I live, been there for some minor mods, test pipes and exhaust. I have seen the tt gallardo, test drove it for about an hour, it is an amazing car, the fastest I have ever driven. The clutch issues for the tt G have been resolved, they are using the stock 06 clutch which is performing well.

How compact is the engine area? I know a place that is great with building turbo exhaust manifolds...We have never thought about turbocharging a Murc. Here in the Charlotte, NC I have never seen a Murc.

This gives you an idea of their work...on our 1000HP Honda civic drag car.
