BUILD THREAD - VF800 Supercharged Lamborghini Huracan w/ Photos and Video
Extra! Extra! Read all about it.
A special delivery arrived yesterday from the great state of Texas.
This Arancio Borealis Lamborghini Huracan will be here for the next 4 days receiving the VF800 Supercharger treatment and our limited edition harness bar.
For the next few days we will post the progress of the installation along with some photo and video content to keep it exciting.
Feel free to subscribe or check back daily for updates.

DAY ONE ...
At the conclusion of day ONE, we have complete our BEFORE dyno runs, and thoroughly prepared the car for the installation of the supercharger.
In order to run the car on the Mustang Dynamometer some of the under-tray needs to be removed. In the process we also removed the rear fender liners to access the radiators, as well as the carbon fiber engine covers. The car was then strapped down and the BEFORE runs were performed.
Here is the best single run:
That shows 459hp. and 329 ft. lbs. at the wheels.
The scale is set to a max of 650hp so that we can overlay the results post install.
We'll post up some more photos and possible another video tomorrow.

DAY TWO ... (after a slight delay)
A minor set back came into play with our timeline on this project.
When planning out this build with the customer,e decided that a must have option was the custom color supercharger unit. After a short discussion he decided on color matching to the factory Arancio Borealis exterior paint. With such a specific color, and the fact that it will sit within close proximity and visibility of the body, close would never be good enough. After a few samples, and a couple test pieces, we have an identical color match and the detail work is near flawless.
Take a look for yourself:
Once we were confident with the color work, we were able to get back underway with the installation.
Since the system is what we consider "direct bolt on", it's a pretty straight forward install, albeit time consuming.
So far we've go the factory intake manifold and fueling system removed. We started at the back of the motor and mounted the new pulley brackets and tensioner, we've mounted our new radiators, the blower mounting plate, the blower unit itself, fuel rail and injectors.
We probably have about 5 hours of work left in the engine bay, and then we can button everything back up and possibly get the car back on the dyno by tomorrow afternoon.
Stay tuned!Last edited by VF-Engineering; 01-28-2016 at 12:25 AM.

DAY THREE ...
And installation is all wrapped up!
I still can get over how great of a combination the color matched blower and harness bar is on this car.
It's not overdone, and the color match is factory perfect.
Once our tech finished the final few steps of the install, it was time for a brief road test before putting the car back on the dyno.
Being a California company, we test and tune with 91 Octane fuel.
This allows us to maximize power while monitoring drive-ability and reliability on what should be the lowest quality fuel level these cars are exposed to.
The use of 93 Octane, or even 100 Octane, will yield even better results as the ECU retains it's ability to adapt and correct for different fuel qualities and climates. (we can talk more on our philosophy for software tuning at a later time.)
The only other modification to this particular car was the Lamborghini Sport Exhaust which we didn't get a great chance to examine up close, but being that it's a factory option, I'm sure we'll come across again in the future.Last edited by VF-Engineering; 03-07-2016 at 03:10 PM.

I will follow this build. The car was freshly detailed? It somehow seems to be a different shade of orange.
