Anyone have experience of the DMS upgrade on LP560 engine that claims to raise BHP to 618 BHP & torque to 462 fi/lb ?

No. But getting a +10% boost on a NA engine (as they claim on their website) from just a software remap is somewhat unlikely. A +5% gain is more realistic (on a good dyno that has not been messed with).

To squeeze +10% extra, it will need a remap plus exhaust decat, performance air-filters, and nano-oil change.

Pop a call into MRC in Banbury, Oxfordshire, and get a second opinion (even if you decide not to use them). They are widely regarded as the best Audi R8 tuners in the country (have won numerous awards for remapping Audis / check their 5-star Google reviews) and will be able to do some good stuff on the Gallardo.

I agree sounds too good that's why I asked for personal experience of this upgrade. I asked the supplier for testimonials from genuine customers but all they sent were the details of claimed improvements and costs .
