The NOVITEC Lamborghini Temerario Exhaust And Upgrade Program
The Lamborghini Temerario arrived as one of the most technically ambitious cars Sant’Agata has ever built, and also one of its most debated. Replacing the beloved, naturally aspirated Huracán was never going to be easy, and while the Temerario beats its predecessor on nearly every metric, enthusiasts landed on one persistent complaint: the new twin-turbo V8 hybrid simply does not sing the way a junior Lamborghini should. German tuner NOVITECNOVITEC has answered that criticism head-on, and its new Lamborghini Temerario exhaust program leads a full range of upgrades that also includes forged wheels and suspension.
The full program is ready to order at Bulletproof Automotive, which now carries the complete range of NOVITEC Lamborghini Temerario upgrades. Here is what it includes, why it matters, and how each piece changes the car.
On paper, the Temerario is staggering. Its all-new 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8, known internally as the L411, revs to a remarkable 10,250 rpm and produces 789 hp on its own. Paired with three axial-flux electric motors and a 3.8-kWh battery, combined output reaches 907 hp, sent through an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission. The result is a supercar that hits 62 mph in a claimed 2.7 seconds, tops out beyond 213 mph, and, in independent testing, has proven even quicker than Lamborghini’s own numbers suggest.
So the performance is not in question. What owners have questioned is the character. Turbochargers, by their nature, absorb exhaust energy and act as mufflers, smoothing out the raw, high-strung wail that defined the naturally aspirated V10 in the Huracán. Add a hybrid system that can run the car in near silence, and the Temerario can feel more clinical than theatrical. For most brands that would be a footnote. For Lamborghini, whose entire identity is built on drama and noise, it became the single most talked-about trait of an otherwise brilliant car.
That is the gap NOVITEC set out to close. Rather than chase headline power figures on a car that already makes 907 hp, the company went straight for the Temerario’s most emotional shortcoming and built its NOVITEC Temerario program around sound, presence, and stance.
The heart of the program is the Lamborghini Temerario exhaust, and this is where NOVITEC’s engineering and materials expertise shows. Every NOVITEC Temerario exhaust is offered in a range of constructions, from stainless steel to lightweight Inconel, up to Inconel finished with high-temperature heat protection and 999 fine-gold plating. These are not just cosmetic choices. Inconel comes from the same nickel-alloy family used in Formula 1, prized for a strength-to-weight ratio that lets builders run thinner walls and shave meaningful weight off the back of the car.
The gold plating on the Lamborghini Temerario exhaust is functional too, because gold is an exceptional thermal reflector, so it helps manage the intense heat around a hard-working turbo V8 and protects the surrounding components. Ultimately, choosing a Lamborghini Temerario exhaust comes down to how loud, how light, and how exotic you want to go.
Within that Lamborghini Temerario exhaust material menu, there are systems for very different owners. The Exhaust System With Flap-Regulation keeps the factory’s valved behavior, staying civil at a cold start or on a late-night drive home and opening up to a far louder, more dramatic note when you want it. Owners chasing a more aggressive, motorsport-derived character can move up to the Race Exhaust System With Flap-Regulation, which combines race-grade construction and heat management while retaining full valve control. And for those who want no compromise and no filter, the Race Exhaust System removes the valve mechanism entirely for a fixed, unmuted note at full volume.
Completing the exhaust build are higher-flow Race Downpipes, which improve flow ahead of the main system, and a set of stainless steel Tailpipes offered in three finishes so you can tie the rear exit into the rest of the car’s look.
Hardware this serious needs the electronics to run it properly, and NOVITEC supplies both. The SWITCHTRONIC module puts manual control of the exhaust flaps directly in the driver’s hands, independent of the drive mode. That means you can keep the car quiet in traffic or a residential neighborhood and then open the flaps for full effect the moment the road opens up, rather than being tied to whatever the factory calibration decides in each mode.
Just as important for a car running race exhaust hardware is the TECTRONIC module. When you fit higher-flow, lower-restriction components, the factory ECU can throw check-engine lights and OBD error codes. The TECTRONIC manages that, keeping the electronics happy so the upgrade behaves like a properly engineered system rather than a workaround. It is also exactly the kind of hardware that tends to appear on a car before a tuner rolls out a power package, which is worth keeping in mind.
A car that now sounds the part should look it too. NOVITEC developed three forged Lamborghini Temerario wheels in partnership with Vossen, the NOVITEC x Vossen Forged NL5, the NL6, and the NL7. All three share NOVITEC hexagonal, hard-edged design language and a clean centerlock look, and they are offered in staggered fitments: a 20-inch front with a 21-inch rear, or a more aggressive 21-inch front paired with a 22-inch rear.
The choice of forged construction matters as much as the styling. Forging produces a wheel that is both lighter and stronger than a comparable cast piece, which keeps unsprung weight down and helps a roughly 4,200-pound, 907-hp all-wheel-drive supercar change direction and put its power down cleanly. Larger diameters and wider rubber also fill the arches for a far more purposeful stance.
To complete the look, NOVITEC offers a Sport Spring Set that lowers the ride height and sharpens turn-in. Crucially, the springs are engineered to work with the Temerario’s factory adaptive dampers rather than replacing them, so you gain the lower, meaner stance and tighter body control without giving up the adjustable ride quality that makes the standard car usable every day.
The obvious question, given NOVITEC’s reputation for aggressive power packages on Ferrari and Lamborghini models, is whether more horsepower is coming. The honest answer today is that NOVITEC has not published horsepower gains or pricing for the Temerario program, and we are not going to invent figures. What we can say is that the foundation is clearly in place. The TECTRONIC electronics and the higher-flow exhaust hardware are exactly the pieces you would develop first if a power upgrade were on the roadmap.
For now, the program is deliberately focused on the areas where the Temerario most needed help: sound, driver control, and presence. With 907 hp already on tap, no owner is left wanting for straight-line pace in the meantime, and the exhaust alone transforms the way the car feels to drive and to hear.
Bulletproof Automotive has spent years as a trusted source for the world’s most exclusive performance programs, and the complete range of NOVITEC Lamborghini Temerario upgrades is available now. Because the program spans several exhaust configurations, multiple exotic material and finish options, three wheel designs, and the supporting electronics, there is a real conversation to be had about building the right specification for how you actually use your car.
If you own a Temerario or have one on order, reach out to the Bulletproof Automotive team and we will walk you through the options, from choosing between the valved and Race systems to selecting materials, wheels, and suspension. The Temerario was always going to be fast. With NOVITEC, it can finally be loud, proud, and unmistakably yours. To see the car that started it all, revisit our coverage of the Lamborghini Temerario at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.
1. Does the NOVITEC Temerario exhaust add horsepower?
NOVITEC has not published any horsepower gains for the Temerario program yet. The current lineup is focused on sound, weight, and driver control. The TECTRONIC electronics and higher-flow hardware suggest a power package could follow, but no figures have been released.
2. What materials are the NOVITEC Temerario exhaust systems available in?
Three constructions: stainless steel, lightweight Inconel, and Inconel with high-temperature heat protection and 999 fine-gold plating. Inconel is an F1-grade alloy that saves weight, and the gold plating acts as a thermal reflector to manage engine-bay heat.
3. What is the difference between the valved and Race exhaust systems?
The Exhaust System with Flap-Regulation keeps a factory-style valve so it stays quiet when you want and opens up on demand. The Race Exhaust System with Flap-Regulation adds race-grade construction while keeping valve control, and the Race Exhaust System removes the valve entirely for a fixed, full-volume note.
4. Will the NOVITEC exhaust trigger a check-engine light?
Not when paired with the TECTRONIC module. It manages the ECU so the higher-flow race hardware does not throw check-engine lights or OBD error codes, keeping the upgrade running like a properly engineered system.
5. What wheel and suspension options are offered for the Temerario?
Three forged NOVITEC x Vossen designs (NL5, NL6, NL7) in staggered fitments, either 20-inch front with 21-inch rear or 21-inch front with 22-inch rear. A Sport Spring Set lowers the car while working with the factory adaptive dampers.
