I've been saying that I have the only turbo ls4 Murcielago in the world.  I'm going to have to amend that to turbo ls4 Murcielago roadster.  You can have the coupe title.  Looking good and I'm glad to have company.  I got outbid today on a Tesla model s chassis by $3,000.  I've been wanting to do an electric Aventador.  Probably lucky I got outbid on this particular one.
Initially, I wanted to install the original LS4.
But when I saw your turbo kit that inspired me and especially reassured.

I like your electric car project.

My goal is not to have an exact copy of a Murcielago.
But it will be well enough made ​​to confuse most people.

You can see the exhaust system. It will go out in the middle of the rear car.

On the first picture, you can see two little radiator that i fit together. One for engine oïl and the other one for the transmission oïl.

Ice Box and intercooler radiator.
The radiator is mounted just in front of the rear left Wheel.

Hello everyone.
Long ago that I have no writing here.
In recent weeks, I started work on my car.

The old V6 was removed and soon LS4 engine will be installed.
I upgraded the LS4 adding a turbo kit from Cartuning.

Here is a small list of things I have done in recent weeks.
-Installation of liquid air intercooler with ice box.
- A cooler motor oil.
- A transmission oil cooler.
- A brake kit Corvette.
- The interior of the car was gutted because everything will be refurbished.
- A Champion 3 rows radiator engine

For transmission, I installed a push button system and the paddle shift.
For the paddle shift, the original tcm is replaced by a compushift tuner that will allow the transmission as I want.

Here are some pictures.

Hi everybody,
I bought an e-gear plate with the original button/module.
I wanna use it as my transmission selector shifter.
There is 3 button on top.
On the back of the switch there is a 8 pins connector.
Someone have the electrical schema?
Who can help me?

The most important to me: on wich pin should i connect the ''+'' and the ''-''.

Thank you

Cartuning supplied everything in my turbo kit.  It was designed for a front engine car so I bought it without the air to air intercooler and we built our own air to water intercooler.  I posted some pictures on pennocks.  I haven't been able to find pictures.  Joe (Fieroking) has some pictures.

 Hi Dratts,
I thank you for the link with Fieroking.
I believe i can find him on pennock's forum?

About your turbo kit: which headers, crossover pipes and exhaust did you buy?
Do you have some pics?

When you get ready to install the ls4 you should contact Fieroking.  He can sell you mounts and a wiring harness.  You are right about keeping it stock.  I went with the cartuning turbo kit just to match the hp of the Murci, but stock is more than adequate.

It looks to me like a roof problem not a windshield problem.  When the kit was originally built they should have followed the glass and put a slight curve in the roof.

I believe you could still cut and reshape the roof area there to make it better but it probably would never be perfect. (with all the bodywork and repaint that would involve)

That being said the car looks great to me!!
