I have talked with Nik a few times over the years, great guy and very knowledgeable. After my experience of using their kits on both my R8's and Huracan LP610 it is the only option for me

huh?

Turbo much power.
Big turbo much power sudden.
Small turbo much power less sudden.
Turbo high RPM cam surprise much power.
Turbo low-RPM cam much power much torque.
Same same low-RPM cam centrifugal blower.

Thanks my friend for both the information and the education. I am very new to sports cars and super cars so I have a steep learning curve.

Well, okay, then.
Turbochargers: if going for insane boost levels, then step up to a titanium compressor wheel, because titanium, though heavier than the more-often-used aluminum, has the strength to handle both the RPM and pressure difference across the vane surface without shattering. More mass leads to more lag, however, so that is a downside, but not smashing your compressor wheel is definitely an upside, if really going for broke on the compressor wheel front.

Kumizi has a point...speed is very addictive, I thought a 1100hp was enough, now I am upgrading to 1500hp

Kind of like money.

Kind of like money.

Too much is not enough
and if in doubt, double it.

Why ruin naturally aspirated status with turbos or supercharger

Why ruin naturally aspirated status with turbos or supercharger

Answer: The challenge.

The challenge, to me, is to make the extra induction pressure as transparent and inobtrusive as possible, I mean, short of just slapping in a 9.0L Lambo offshore powerboat engine and calling'er done.

Examine which blower produce which boost at which heat levels. Some blowers add more heat to the intake charge for the same boost level, which is an indication of inefficiency. Good luck getting any makers to provide statistics on this. you may have to rig up a test rig yourself and drive it with an electric motor.

Example: 5000 RPM blower snout speed, stuffing air through a controlled orifice, results for example: 11PSI, 180 degrees F.
Then match all the other blowers to that 11PSI, with same orifice, and check RPM of blower snout, and degrees F.
Also, monitor amp draw of electric motor, and you will have a good idea of your power input to the blower.

It just depends on how thorough you want to be.

Excellent points. The Lamborghinis's are fast in their own right but they are much, much more......................it's the total package that creates the magic.

Are they really faster?
Put a plaid and an svj on the Nordschleiefe and then
you learn the SVJ is much much faster; the plaid will have already hit a tree.
