German tuner
edo competition claims to have built the world’s fastest
Lamborghini Murciélago, improving the LP640 model to 710
bhp and 700 Nm through revised exhaust, reworked
cylinder heads and cam, air filters and ECU remap.
Tapping its roots as one of the ultimate performance
vehicle tuners, the company from Ahlen, Germany has
turned its eyes towards a very special supercar, the new
Lamborghini Murciélago LP 640.
The already extremely capable monster has been turned
into the world’s fastest and most powerful Lamborghini
Murciélago supercar by edo competition with the
resulting model being dubbed as the edo LP710 /2.
The Murciélago's 6.5 litre V12 has been tuned to 710 hp
and 700 Nm (516 ft-lb) which improves acceleration from
0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) to 3.2 seconds and reduces
the 0 to 200 km/h (0 to 124 mph) to under 10 seconds.
Top speed is 360 km/h (224 mph).
The increase in power was achieved through the use of
new exhaust headers, new high flow catalytic converters,
new mufflers, a new exhaust tip, new performance
camshafts, modified cylinder heads and new high flow air
filters. The engine controls are reprogrammed to make
ideal use of the individual modifications.
This powerful package is brought to perfection with
optimised aerodynamics which enhances the stability of
the mighty bull and bestows the car with an even more
dynamic elegance. A newly developed and beautifully
shaped rear wing with an adjustable lip completes the
aerodynamics package.
A high-speed wheel and tyre combination features,
comprising 19 inch light alloy wheel set with special
Continental high-speed tires: 225/35 ZR 19 Continental
V-max in the front and 325/30 ZR 19 Continental V-max in
the rear.
A marvellous sound emanates from the edo competition
stainless steel high performance exhaust system which
includes a new exhaust tip. A new butterfly-valve
control system – remote-controlled on request – is
available, too. The more aggressive rear view is a great
side-effect.
edo competition has developed a new single disc clutch.
Additionally the 4-wheel drive arrangement is turned
into a 2-wheel drive setup. The LP 710 /2 is delivered
with rear wheel drive. Weight savings of 40 kg (88 lb)
and more agile handling are the result of this
conversion. All modifications are carried out
exclusively at edo competition Motorsport GmbH in Ahlen,
Germany.
