Heffner Performance has unveiled a specially tuned Lamborghini Murcielago with over 1100 horsepower.
In order to achieve this insane figure, Heffner added twin-turbochargers to the Lamborghini's 570 hp V12 engine. The end result is astonishing, as over 1114 hp is delivered to the rear wheels.
While Heffner failed to provide typical performance data, they stated "In 90 degree heat the car pulled off a 5.10 second 60-130 (mph) at around 950 RWHP. For reference a stock 580 horsepower Murcielago takes around 9.5 seconds to make the leap from 60 to 130." When the full 1100 hp is dialed in, the company expects the time to drop into the 4 second range.
Look for more information to be released when Heffner finalizes the performance package.

You would think any company WOULD upgrade these bits, but then it also sounds like these guys figure testing amounted to little more than mashing the gas with a stopwatch on their hand. What sort of standard benchmark is 60 - 130mph? And who the hell uses "RWHP"?
I don't even know what Heffner Performance is, other than potentially some back street tuning outfit that lacks credibility so hijacked the Playboy magnates name to try and sound bigger and better than they are.
