The Lamborghini Temerario introduces an entirely new chapter for Lamborghini's mid-engine supercar. Its twin-turbo V8 hybrid powertrain, new chassis architecture and highly technical design also create new opportunities for owners who want to personalise the car.
Since the Temerario was introduced, the aftermarket range has expanded considerably. Owners can now choose between complete Capristo and NOVITEC exhaust systems, sport catalytic converters, catless downpipes, forged wheels from several premium manufacturers and dedicated suspension upgrades.
In this guide, we look at the most important Lamborghini Temerario upgrades and how to combine wheels, ride height and exhaust components into one coherent specification.

What Can You Upgrade on the Lamborghini Temerario?
The strongest Temerario builds do not rely on adding as many aftermarket parts as possible. The car already has an extremely complex design, so the best results come from making a small number of carefully considered changes.
For most owners, we would concentrate on three areas:
- Forged wheels for a more individual design, stance and vehicle-specific fitment
- Exhaust upgrades to give the twin-turbo V8 a stronger and more emotional sound character
- Suspension and lowering to improve the visual relationship between the wheels, tyres and body
These three areas also work together. Wheel diameter affects tyre profile and visual stance, ride height changes how the wheels sit within the arches, and the exhaust determines much of the car's character once it is running.
Lamborghini Temerario Exhaust Upgrades
The exhaust is arguably the most interesting performance upgrade for the Temerario. Its 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 represents a major departure from the naturally aspirated V10 of the Huracán, and this changes the type of exhaust system required to release more sound and character.
BaanVelgen currently focuses on two premium exhaust manufacturers for the Temerario: Capristo and NOVITEC. Both offer high-quality vehicle-specific solutions, but their product strategies are quite different.
Capristo Exhaust for Lamborghini Temerario
Capristo takes a modular approach to the Temerario. The starting point is a valved rear exhaust manufactured from high-temperature T309 stainless steel and equipped with electronic exhaust valves and extensive heat protection.
From there, the system can be expanded with three different downpipe configurations:
- 250-cell sport catalytic downpipes
- 100-cell sport catalytic downpipes
- TwinFlow catless downpipes
This makes Capristo particularly easy to configure around how extensively the owner wants to modify the car. A road-focused car can begin with the rear exhaust or 250-cell system, while more aggressive configurations can move towards 100-cell or catless downpipes.
The optional Capristo E2E Exhaust Valve Remote Kit C also allows manual control of the factory electronic exhaust valves.

NOVITEC Exhaust for Lamborghini Temerario
NOVITEC offers a wider range of individual exhaust concepts. The Temerario programme includes a RACE exhaust without flap regulation, a RACE exhaust with flap regulation and a power-optimized exhaust with flap regulation.
Depending on the selected system, customers can also choose between stainless steel and Inconel configurations, matching tailpipes, catalyst-replacement pipes and NOVITEC's dedicated Tectronic and Switchtronic electronics.
This makes NOVITEC particularly attractive for owners who want to build a broader package around exhaust, wheels and suspension using components from one manufacturer.

Capristo or NOVITEC: Which Temerario Exhaust Is Best?
Neither system is automatically better. They simply suit different priorities.
| Capristo | NOVITEC | |
|---|---|---|
| Core approach | Modular valved exhaust system | Multiple complete exhaust concepts |
| Material focus | T309 stainless steel | Stainless steel and Inconel options |
| Downpipe options | 250-cell, 100-cell and catless | Cat-replacement pipes |
| Valve control | E2E Remote Kit C | Switchtronic on compatible systems |
| Broader vehicle programme | Primarily exhaust-focused | Exhaust, wheels and suspension |
For an owner primarily focused on building the exhaust system in stages, Capristo is a very logical route. For someone looking to combine exhaust, forged wheels and suspension from one manufacturer, NOVITEC offers the broader programme.
Forged Wheels for the Lamborghini Temerario
A set of forged wheels remains one of the most visually effective upgrades for the Temerario. Because the body already contains complex surfaces, vents and geometric details, wheel design needs to complement the car rather than compete with it.
BaanVelgen offers vehicle-specific forged wheel configurations from manufacturers including BC Forged, Brixton Forged, ANRKY and NOVITEC.
The advantage of a made-to-order forged wheel is that the setup can be configured around the individual vehicle. Width, offset, concavity, brake clearance and finish can all be selected rather than relying on a generic aftermarket fitment.
BC Forged
BC Forged is one of our preferred starting points for the Temerario because of the enormous choice in designs, constructions, dimensions and finishes. Both monoblock and multi-piece wheels can be configured around the car.
For the Temerario, we generally prefer designs that retain enough open space around the spokes to show the braking system and avoid making the side profile visually too heavy.
Brixton Forged
Brixton Forged works particularly well for owners looking for a more aggressive motorsport-inspired appearance. Many Brixton designs combine thin spoke architecture with deep concavity and highly detailed finishes.
On a car as visually complex as the Temerario, wheel finish is almost as important as wheel design. Brushed, satin and darker transparent finishes can highlight the shape without making the wheel dominate the complete car.
ANRKY
ANRKY offers a more architectural wheel style, with distinctive spoke surfaces and aggressive forged constructions. These designs suit customers who deliberately want the wheel package to become one of the defining visual elements of the build.
NOVITEC NL5, NL6 and NL7
NOVITEC offers three forged wheel designs specifically for the Lamborghini Temerario: NL5, NL6 and NL7.
All three are available in staggered 20/21-inch and 21/22-inch configurations.
| Configuration | Front Wheel | Rear Wheel | Front Tyre | Rear Tyre |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 20 / 21 inch | 9J x 20 | 12J x 21 | 255/35 R20 | 325/30 R21 |
| 21 / 22 inch | 9.5J x 21 | 12J x 22 | 255/30 R21 | 335/25 R22 |
The 20/21-inch setup is the more restrained choice, retaining additional tyre sidewall. The 21/22-inch setup creates considerably more visual presence and fills the wheel arches more aggressively.
What Wheel Size Would We Choose?
For a car that will be driven regularly, we would generally begin with the 20/21-inch configuration or a comparable vehicle-specific forged setup. The additional tyre sidewall gives the package a slightly more functional appearance while retaining the proportions Lamborghini intended.
For an owner who prioritises stance and visual impact, a 21/22-inch configuration makes the Temerario look noticeably more dramatic.
The correct answer therefore depends on the car. Exterior colour, wheel design, suspension height and intended use all influence which diameter works best.
Lowering the Lamborghini Temerario
The Temerario sits relatively low from the factory, but reducing the wheel-arch gap can make a forged wheel package look considerably more integrated with the body.
NOVITEC offers a dedicated sport spring set designed to work with the original Temerario suspension architecture. This allows the ride height to be reduced without replacing the complete factory damper system.
We prefer to determine wheel fitment and suspension setup together wherever possible. A wheel that looks correct at standard ride height may have a very different relationship with the body once the car has been lowered.
Three Lamborghini Temerario Build Directions
1. OEM+ Road Setup
For a subtle but meaningful upgrade, we would combine a vehicle-specific forged wheel set with the Capristo valved rear exhaust while retaining the original downpipes and factory suspension.
This keeps the fundamental character and usability of the car intact while improving two of the areas an owner notices most: appearance and sound.
2. Complete Road-Focused Performance Setup
A stronger road specification could combine forged wheels, NOVITEC sport springs and the Capristo exhaust with 250-cell sport catalytic downpipes.
This creates a more complete stance and sound transformation without immediately choosing the most extreme available exhaust hardware.
3. Full Custom Temerario
For a more extensive build, the car can be configured with 21/22-inch forged wheels, lowered suspension and either an aggressive Capristo 100-cell/catless configuration or one of the complete NOVITEC exhaust systems.
At this level, we would always configure the car as one package rather than choosing wheels, suspension and exhaust independently.
Why Configure the Complete Car Together?
The Lamborghini Temerario does not need many modifications to have a completely different presence. In fact, adding too many unrelated parts can easily make such a technical design look less coherent.
Our preference is therefore to decide what the final car should feel like first: subtle OEM+, motorsport-focused, aggressive street car or a more exclusive show-oriented specification.
From there, wheel design, wheel dimensions, finish, ride height and exhaust configuration can all be selected around the same goal.
