SEMA 2019: Wicked Twin Turbo Huracan Achieves Sleeper Status
Nobody would ever call a Lamborghini a sleeper, but Weistec’s SEMA 950 hp twin-turbo Huracan comes close.
Perusing the many cool rides at SEMA, it quickly becomes obvious that most all of them share one thing in common. They’re built specifically to divert your eyeballs and make you stop and look. Which isn’t exactly easy to do in a place packed with hundreds of amazing rides. And at first glance, the Lamborghini Huracan that tuner Weistec brought to SEMA may not look like much more than a cool, color-shifting supercar. Which sounds pretty crazy, but that makes it quite common in Vegas in early November.
But once we took a closer look, it became obvious that this particular SEMA Huracan was something special. Because it packs Weistec’s brand new Road Racing Spec Twin Turbo System for this particular Lambo model. And the fact that you can’t really tell is kind of the point. Weistec specifically designed this twin turbo setup to blend in, with an OEM fit and finish. It even receives plenty of cooling without having to hack up the factory body panels or add anything extra.
Which obviously makes it pretty darn cool. But Weistec also says that their twin turbo setup helps the Huracan produce a healthy 950 horsepower as well, on low boost. This means that you’ve got quite the sleeper on your hands. Well, about as incognito as a Lamborghini can possibly be, anyway. The color-shifting hue and giant rear wing certainly don’t help that cause, but we’re digging them regardless.
SEMA was dominated with turbo’d supercars this year, and most of them make no attempts to hide their upgrades. In fact, a lot of them go the extra mile to make you notice. But we prefer our supercars to be a bit more incognito, at least in terms of power upgrades. If you feel the same way, it’s hard to dislike what Weistec has done here. With nearly four-digit horsepower and a pretty stock look, this Huracan is sure to catch most folks off guard.
