Exclamation Twin Turbo 458 Italia from Underground Racing

Twin Turbo 458 Italia from Underground Racing

Here are the first pictures of the Underground Racing Twin Turbo Ferrari 458 Italia. Ferrari did an incredible job with the 458 platform. We must say we greatly enjoyed driving this 458 Italia around a bit before it went under the knife.

Even though we were extremely impressed with the handling and all the other cool features of the 458, however, we knew there was something missing. Because my brother KC Howeth and I test drive Twin Turbo Lamborghinis and Twin Turbo F430's on a daily basis, we have certain expectations (however warped they may be!) when it comes to power and acceleration. So it was then time for the Underground Racing team to design a 458 Twin Turbo system. As the pictures below show, this is what we came up with.

We will have a Twin Turbo system with a stock engine as Stage 1. The built engine with Twin Turbo system will be stage 2. More photos and videos will be coming soon, along with the release of the performance numbers. Please follow Underground Racing - Twin Turbo Lamborghini Gallardo Performance for updates and details.

So how fast will this catch on fire I'm guessing there will be tons of heat generated by those turbos at the back. Cool nonetheless! How much more power do they squeeze out of it?

The turbos are a great fit with the 3 exhaust exits! Now it's like a modern interpretation of the F40! Great work and lets see some numbers when you get it all finished!
