707 bhp DMS LP640

[Lambo FirstBlood]

I was just flicking through the back pages of EVO and I noticed that DMS offer an upgrade for the LP640 that increases power to 707bhp and Torque to 526 lb./ft.

I know they do a lot with the German stuff (BMW, Merc, Porsche) but anyone here got any experience with doing this to a Lambo. it sounds like a big chunk of extra power.

I'm going to call them to find out cost and what's involved.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

reality is top end bhp is irrelevant in the uk as u will never hit top speed, and drag racing on the streets is not legal!!!

will the transmission take the extra torque, or will you just fry the clutch or activate the traction control....

This is what EDO do to get 710 BHP, very expensive way to gain not that much more power. I think it highly unlikely that the DMS figure is correct unless they are just bumping the rev limit, it maybe a max of what is potentially possible from them though, but its certainly not just an exhaust and remap.

The generally assumed logic in such things from guys that have done it over on LP, is don't bother with anything other than exhaust and potentially decat. If you want more power than that save up for turbos, as anything else is pretty much a waste of money.

I can tell you right now that the gearbox in the LP640 is at its absolute limit with 630bhp.
My '04 Murcie with 580bhp has never had a problem with the box until very recently - just after it hit 200,000 and is currently having 3rd and 5th gear syncro's replaced.

The LP640 (now 35k) has had a new box under warranty 18 months ago and various stripdown and rebuilds. It's at its limit I'm afraid. Put another 100bhp in it and say goodbye to your box

Love it, people get precious about 2004 registered boring diesel estate cars with half that mileage

Thanks for the input. It was only vague interest TBH anyway so I'll steer clear based on your advise
