Huracan w/ Akrapovic titanium exhaust w/ tune 645hp/450tq.

Turbo S w/ Europipe exhaust w/ tune 660hp/640tq

2017 turbo S 580HP and 750Nm, 20HP and 50Nm more than the 2016 model.

Thanks for all the responses. Just a little update, I've been playing around the past weekend and I find I get superior launches and less initial wheel spin when I don't use launch control...could be my imagination.

I don't think it's your imagination. At one point I was thinking the same thing.
But, a lot depends on the road conditions and your tires.
Also in a launch control 100% goes into the rear wheels plus you don't have to use shifters.

Pretty sure that's wrong. That would affectively make it RWD, and you wouldn't get great launches. Clearly, AWD is working in launch, so not all 100% is not going to the rear.

It is all about how the track is prepared if you get a good time in the H. The H will do a greats launch/times if the track is good,if not it will spin.Slower Time.The Turbo S doesnot care,they hook up every time as they have all that motor sitting right over the rear tires/ass...

I have an LP580, 100% of my power is definitely going to the rear tires hehe ;)
