Good, good stuff right there Endo!

Thanks for the info too Wally, I'm sure your build would look aabsolutely phenomenal w those CFwheels on it bro!!
By the way, love to see where you're at now w all that? ;)
 
They advertised the superleggera at "205" horsepower. I've personally seen the physical title of several acquantainces superleggeras and they all read 193HP. The numbers you get from the factory are a scam.

Factories always quote crank hp. The dyno figures we see like your friends 193 hp is rear wheel hp/RWHP.

The 1199 SL was actually advertised at 200 + bhp. They didn't want to put a number to it!!

However, they have updated the official site with some engine details. It will produce 215 bhp in standard form meeting euro 4 compliance standards. Basically the same titanium exhaust you get on the R. A 'race' kit comes shipped with it, the WSBK exhaust. This will put power up to 220 bhp.

But I agree, this is like lab/bench testing figures I imagine.

Two segment, two ringed pistons.
Titanium valves.
Titanium con rods.
Lightened balanced crank with tungsten inserts
New heads.
New engine casings

5 BHP doesn't sound like much but if the R is anything to go by it will be a massive mid range boost. My mate gains a good 100m or more down the straights on me on his R with Akro cans vs my stock cans.

I counted the perf holes and by my calculations, there appear to be 10% more than standard so this will give a weight savings and therefore is acceptable to have "Superleggera" stitched on the sides. Sad there was no mention of matching underwear...
