Default New intake for LP550/560/570 (prototype)



Intake will come with RED silicon hoses (picture attached blue is just a prototype), red air filter holder, and either BMC/AFE air filter, with inverted top. Meaning sucked air will enter from both top and side of the air filter.



This air filter holder will be in red (this black is just the prototype). Made from Aluminium, fully CNC.



This will be how it will look like when pieced together.


A full sample has been sent to a fellow LP560 in Malaysia, a total of 5 dyno runs were performed with this intake.

1st run - 18hp increase
2nd run - 14hp increase
3rd run - 20hp increase
4th run - 17hp increase
5th run - 15hp increase

Dyno graphs were not provided, yet, as they have not been sent to me. 5 runs were done on different days, with different conditions (or claimed by owner). (Malaysia is 365 days summer, same as Singapore). Dyno runs were conducted using Dynapack dynamometer. I have requested for pictures during dyno and dyno graphs, which he is supposed to send me.

Meanwhile let's take 14hp as the power gain with this intake. To be installed using factory air box.

At least it proves that a good designed intake does give reasonable HP gains.

Only 10 sets will be made for the first batch of production...... Target deliver date is before x'mas so u guys can buy urself a x'mas present for ur gallardo

The magic question, price.... To be frank, actual costing is not out, but target to price between 900 to 1200usd. Of cos, as much as possible, will try to price it below 1000usd, but again it all depends on demand.

Very nice! 15 HP gain sounds pretty good. Please keep us informed.

Hard to swallow that much money for a little gain. That is a really nice gain from an intake but now that I own a GTR and can add close to 200whp with $5000, 15hp for grand doesn't sound all that great. The Lambo tax is much worse than the GTR tax, so it's funny when the guys on the GTR bitch about the GTR tax.
