Wheelsandmore: LP850-4 Lucifero (based on Lamborghini Huracán) News

From here: http://www.sub5zero.com/wheelsandmor...ghini-huracan/

The Lamborghini Huracán only recently entered production, but tuners are already starting to roll out upgrades for the successor to the Gallardo. This shouldn’t come as a massive surprise, since the Gallardo was the best-selling Lamborghini car in history. And with the refinements and upgrades found aboard the Huracán (the brand’s first dual-clutch transmission arguably chief among them), we wouldn’t be shocked if the new baby bull eventually breaks that record.

That being said, the folks at Wheelsandmore found some room for improvement on the Huracán. Dubbed the LP850-4 Lucifero, this meaner mid-engine Italian has been given a mild cosmetic makeover, with a thin stripe running across the top and a set of Wheelsandmore’s new F.I.W.E. center-lock wheels (20” fronts, 21” rears). Again, it’s a pretty mild makeover on the outside.

Under the engine cover, though, it’s a very different story. Wheelsandmore plans to offer three, count ‘em, three power kits for the 5.2L V10. The first one serves up a mild bump to 641 horsepower (from 601 horsepower stock), while the second one adds a supercharger to serve up a much more noticeable 766 horsepower, while the top package leads to a ludicrous 838 horsepower (with transmission and driveline strengthened accordingly). A hydraulically-adjustable racing suspension system is also available to make the Lucifero’s handling – and, presumably, getting over speed bumps and the like – a bit less hellish.

I get what you mean, but I'd think they're using the same 5.2L V10 as seen in the previous Gallardo/R8. I'm sure they know the limits of that engine by now.

Press release...

As just the first copies of the new Huracan LP 610-4 left the hallowed halls in Sant`Agata Bolognese, german cartuner Wheelsandmore developed a stunning and powerful upgrade package.

The modified wheels are noted at first because Wheelsandmore applied their new wheel model F.I.W.E. and converted the Huracan into a racing car with central locking optics colored as wll as the applied outlines . The multi-piece concave forged wheels for the Huracan were taylored sizing 9.5 x20 inches on the steering axle for stock tires size 245/30/20 and on the guide axis in 11.5 x21 inches for much flatter 305/25/21 tires. The modular three-piece construction allows an individual customizing according to customer´s specifications. Means that the center, the outer rim, the central locking and even the small connecting screws of the wheels can be finished in color and surface up to infinite combinations.

For those who aren´t satisfied with the factory offered 610 hp and 560 nm of torque, Wheelsandmore has developed 3 different power upgrades. With stage 1 the noble tuner combines a hand-made stainless steel exhaust system with digitally program-able, wireless remote controlled flap control with customized software and carbon-frame air filters and elicits the V10 aggregate 30 horsepower and 40 Nm additional torque. In the second stage the luxury refiner implanted the V10 engine a compressor kit with reinforced clutch and a differential lock. If the solvent customer is bored with these 777 hp and 700 Nm, Wheelsandmore offers also a third and final tuning stage 3 on brute 850 hp and 730nm!

Currently, there is a hydraulically adjustable racing suspension with adjustable train and compression damping in the development and will timely integrated into the Wheelsandmore portfolio for the latest throw of the Italian sports car manufacturer.
