Lamborghini Aventador Exotic Sounds and new rollers with Video

vividracing · 12-17-2012, 02:35 PM

The Lamborghini Aventador is a very impressive machine. Who would have thought that the Murcielago could be out done. But they did. Equipped with a 6.5L V12 engine and a 7 speed dual clutch transmission, the new stylings of the Aventador are amazing. Though we have had the privilege in the past of working on several other supercars such as the Lamborghini LP640, Lamborghini Murcielago Roadster, Bugatti Veyron, and a heap of other Ferrari and Porsche cars, its not everyday that something the cost of a house you get to play with. As an established customer having just modified his Ferrari 458 with a set of HRE Wheels, he was ready to make this Aventador simply stunning.

The first modifications we did was the Niche 1 piece forged wheels in 20×9 and 21×13 with Pirelli tires. The cost of the tires fitted alone could have equipped several tuner cars needs! The Pirelli were a 255/30/20 up front and a 355/25/21 in the rear. With the dark tinted and brushed finished, the wheels matched with matte black finish very well while showing off the large yellow carbon ceramic brakes.

Because the Aventador already has some extreme styling, we wanted to give the rear end a stronger more aggressive look to follow the rake of the car. We mounted a Mansory matte carbon wing to get this done. The base of the wing replaces the factory part and then features 2 uprights with the top level wing blade. This still functions with the hydraulic system that raises at a certain speed. The precision and quality of the Mansory is amazing down to the engraved carbon fiber logo from Mansory. Having done a previous Range Rover with a full Mansory kit, we expected nothing less.

The final piece to this upgrade kit was the Capristo Racing Exhaust for the Lamborghini. Capristo has always focused on highly engineered and tested exhaust system for top level sports cars. Their portfolio of exhausts fit everything from Ferrari, Porsche, Mercedes, Bentley, and of course, Lamborghini. The Capristo system for the Aventador is no different. The factory exhaust is extremely heavy and definitely restricts the sound of the V12 engine. Not only saving weight off the rear end, the exhaust system enables you to exceed the factory 700HP Lamborghini has given it. Like every other Lamborghini I have personally heard revving up, its make any one in audible range stop what their doing to go see what this F1 race car like sound is! Check out the photos and the 2 videos we put together on this completed project.

Its stunning but I still perfer the Lamborghini Gallardo spyder just because its more compact.

Awesome....but any upgrade to the Aventador is almost sacrilegious IMO. It's a perfect machine and a work of art out of the box. It's kind of like adding sunglasses to the Mona Lisa. Regardless, this is one sick machine and you guys did a great job.

A few co-workers and I always debate about this.
One guy loves the Ford GT and wants 2, one factory and another to tune and have fun. We always debate on cars like the 458 and such if modding destroys what the car is. I always say that no matter what a company does to make it perfect out of the box, they are still limited by government regulations and certain safety, sound, etc. restrictions and aftermarket always can make that better.

b1adesofcha0s · 12-17-2012, 03:30 PM

I think if you mod it properly and tastefully (like Vivid Racing has done here) you can get away with it. Nothing crazy, just some subtle improvements. A nice exhaust definitely helps, especially with the roar of a V12. Though I did like the factory Aventador wheels better, but these still look nice on it.

I totally agree, but to me it's perfect, even with the restrictions they have to follow. I guess it's because I see this as a modern classic. I wouldn't want to change anything with an aftermarket part any more than swapping out wheels with aftermarket ones on a '64 Ferrari GTO. I get the "why," I just don't think the Aventador needs any aftermarket part. Heck, I don't even upgrade it in Gran Turismo.

I too prefer the stock wheels. These remind me too much of the wheels from the 458 Italia.

That's exactly what I thought of when I saw the wheels.

Yeah I saw that. Poor Aventador

XwChriswX · 12-17-2012, 04:16 PM

Gotta agree, the wheels are not what I would have went with, the wing is, stylish, but I think not on this car.

The video was excellent. Really enjoyed the soundtrack. I miss driving in AZ

I'd love to see this thing on the Dyno to see what gains the exhaust actually freed up.

2xtreme1 · 12-17-2012, 04:21 PM

^ lol @ tyga. But damnnnnn Aventador is pure sex.

Not a fan of the wing on top of a wing. But to each his own.
