Boasts 600 horsepower and 572 Nm of torque

Edo Competition has unveiled the new Lamborghini Gallardo LP600/4.

Boasting 600 horsepower and 572 Nm (422 ft-lb) of torque, the LP600/4 accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 3.5 seconds before hitting a top speed of 340 km/h (211 mph). Compared to the standard Gallardo LP560-4, the LP600/4 has an additional 40 hp and 32 Nm of torque. It is 0.2 seconds faster to 100 km/h and has 15 km/h (9 mph) higher top speed.

Besides the extra power, Edo installed a sport suspension "to improve drivability, driving dynamics and precision." While details are limited, the company says the suspension features low friction shock absorbers, revised spring rates, and adjustable dampers.

In terms of styling, the LP600/4 has a new front spoiler lip, a stainless steel exhaust system (with butterfly valves that are activated via a remote), and 19-inch three-piece racing wheels (with artificially-aged cast center-sections, hand-polished outer rims, and stainless steel screws) outfitted with high-performance Dunlop Sport Maxx tires.

... extra spicy

A little more unique? A little sportier?

edo competition presents the LP600/4 with added spice

600 - 340 - 3.5 ... No, these are not the dimensions of what Santa's about to bring. These are the three most prominent figures of the new edo LP600/4.

600 stands for its power output, 340 for its top speed and 3.5 seconds is how long it takes to accelerate to 100 km/h (62 mph) from a dead stop.

edo competition has managed to improve performance by increasing power output to 600 horsepower at 7,970 rpm and the torque output to 572 Nm (422 ft-lb) at 6,845 rpm.

Another priority was to upgrade the suspension in order to improve drivability, driving dynamics and precision. edo competition achieved this by employing a newly developed sport suspension system, which is adjustable in compression and rebound damping. This technology allows for custom suspension setups that are ideally matched to a wide range of needs. The low friction shock absorbers and new spring rates were tested extensively on race tracks and high speed ovals, as well as on the road, because handling is not an area for compromise. The result has to be experienced to be believed...

Rounding off the sporty concept are 19 in. three-piece racing wheels with artificially-aged cast center-sections, hand-polished outer rims and 39 stainless steel screws. For the front axle the customer can specify stock tire dimensions or 235/35 ZR 19, while the rear wheels are shod with 305/30 ZR 19 Dunlop Sport Maxx rubber. With this solution edo competition enables its customers to reuse the factory tires on their new wheels.

Another, ever-intriguing topic at edo competition: „The voice".

The new stainless steel high-performance exhaust system with butterfly valves is an attractive proposition. Not only is the sound level adjustable via remote, the exhaust also frees up 15 horsepower and lets the driver enjoy a whole new aural experience. As a welcome side effect, the edo exhaust system weighs 12 kg (26 lb) less than the original piece.

As a result of years of experience with high speed tests, edo competition has reinforced the front end of the edo LP600/4 with a new front spoiler lip, making 340 km/h (211 mph) runs into a relaxing affair.

As promised, lots of extra spice ...

As with all edo competition models, we set no limit to our customers' imaginations. Special interiors or lavish leather upholstery, individual requests are accommodated and executed with quality.

All modifications are carried out exclusively at edo competition Motorsport GmbH in Ahlen.
