Quicksilver exhaust for Gallardo Mk I
Exhaust specialist Quicksilver is offering PHers a special discount on its redesigned systems for the Mk. I Lamborghini Gallardo.
Products
Not all Gallardo owners will want the full F1 howl but most would prefer a bit more sensation to add to the enjoyment of driving, so QuickSilver offers a choice:
- Sports System: For the driver who uses the Gallardo regularly for commuting in town or long journeys, the Sports system is ideal. At low rpm this system has a deeper tone than stock, allowing conversation and the radio. At higher rpm (when the exhaust values open), the volume increases considerably.
- SuperSports System: This system is louder throughout the rev range with a wonderful and unique V10 howl at high rpm -- and fewer noise compromises.
