800 HP Lamborghini Urus Is a 10s 1/4-Mile Bomb

Earlier this fall, we talked about the first modded Lamborghini Urus in the US. However, when introducing the super-SUV, we mentioned that we would have to do a bit of waiting before coming across an example featuring noticeably pumped-up specs.

Well, the time has now come to talk about a Lamborghini Urus example that can leave the standard car trailing in its wake.

The high-riding Lambo we have here has been gifted with a catless downpipe exhaust, while also receiving an ECU remap. As a result, the twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 occupying its engine compartment, which delivers 650 hp in factory trim, now churns out at least 800 ponies.

A Vbox was recently placed inside the Raging Bull, with the aim of measuring its sprinting performance. And the results were compared to those recorded by a factory-state Urus, as you'll be able to notice in the piece of footage at the bottom of the page.

However, you should note that the two were tested in different temperatures, with the hotter weather and the extra muscle causing the newcomer to spin a little.

Nevertheless, the machine managed to deliver a clean 11s quarter-mile run, which means that, in cooler weather, the thing should become a 10s car. And that's without factoring in the prepped surface of a drag strip.

The aftermarket specialist behind the project is 1016 Industries, which was also involved with Urus we mentioned in the intro.

Oh, and in case you're wondering about the check engine light on the dash, you should know this has to do with the decatted setup and will probably be fixed once the proper workaround is found.

Of course, the race for the quickest Lamborghini Urus out there doesn't end here an we should get to see such a  velocity tool delivering a four-figure output next year.
