IN my quest to find a replacement for the r8 I went to drive a gallardo yesterday ,an 07 plate with egear.It was rubbish,uncomfortable,with a ride so hard it made the sport set up on the r8 feel like a limo.Very noisy but not a nice noise ,and the engine seemed to take forever to go through the revs.A thoroughly unpleasant experience.Anyway the guy who usually has 6-7 gallardos only had this one ,and a guy turned up 5 minutes before me to have a look.He drove it and bought it,and was kind enough to let me drive it after he had done the deal.
Anway He had arrived in a manual r8 v8 ,so I asked him if he minded if we do a rolling race to see exactly if the revo chip really made a difference or if it was my imagination.
We came off a slip road onto the motorway at a steady 40 ,on the signal we floored it,I pulled quite alot on it opening up several cars length by the time we reached 120mph...by which point I slammed on the brakes .
verdict ,the revo makes a significant difference all the way through the revs.
