Also, to remind you guys this is the same V10 from the LP560-4 NOT the S6 or RS6.

This new pic that surfaced matches the spypics of the V10's engine bay:

in all seriousness though, this engine is going to transform the R8's driving characteristics. the chassis is begging for more power, and this should make things interesting.

I'd say the Lambo, unless Audi tries to steel Lambo's E-Gear as well.

From what i've heard, even though the engines are the same, Audi's will produce 10% less than the Lambo. BUT, here is the trick, it will produce 10% less because of its limiter, not because of its structure.
