Do you have a link to your blog? I just purchased a S1 project in Texas myself. Aaron

I'm pretty sure the 89-90 cars (at least) were wired for Bosch AND Delco injection (or carbs even?) from the factory and they just tied up the ones they didn't use. Aaron ATS Exotics

I just dyno'd the ram air mod on an otherwise stock 1989 SE. Here are the before and after results.

My esprit came to me with a Saratoga tinted plexiglass top. Last year I purchased a painted composite top off eBay, but they sent it with no latches or hardware. I'd like to have the option of either roof. So are the Lotus Esprit latches available still? Or has anyone discovered if they came from another vehicle? thanks. Aaron

I just got an update from Anita. The said one of their suppliers screwed up, but they think they can fix it in the next week. She wasn't specific, but I am guessing they welded the wrong collector to my header. Aaron

That's correct Zig. I ordered a Steven's manifold with external wastegate port as shown in the GB pictures. Aaron

Son of a ...... Did anyone else get a "Thanks for waiting four months, but we didn't build yours correctly, intend to ship it to you that way, and are offering a piddly 60 pound refund" email? Aaron Dear Aaron We are unfortunately unable to supply your order to your exact specifications due to unforeseen circumstances and for that we apologise. We are in a position however, to offer you a complete Steven’s Manifold without wastegate port and without blanking plate and this can be shipped immediately. For

I found it!! It's the Start Drop Out Relay. I tightened up the female spades and replaced the relay. So far so good. Aaron

My AC is fully charged and blows cold. But recently while driving, the fan and AC will just turn off and stop working or blowing. It may come back on in a few minutes, or it may not come back on until the next time I drive it. The radio does the same thing, and some days I can only choose between one of the two working, either radio or AC. Today while sitting at a light with the windows down I decided to roll them up because the AC was working. The additional electrical load from raising the window caused the AC to turn off. Not slow down the fan speed, completely turn off. Any ideas?

That exit flange is centered on the turbine. The exit flange on the stock Stevens turbo is NOT centered on the turbine. So the exhaust will be off. Aaron

Any updates?

No reply from them here either.

Nothing from her either.

I would recommend everyone getting the stevens manifold request an external wastegate port and also get one of these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Wastegate-Block-off-Flange-For-Tial-38mm-MVS-V-band-Billet-Mile-steel-exhaust-/380769951163 That will give the option of an external wastegate later down the road without removing and modifying the manifold. Aaron I don't know. Some guy keeps saying to look at the picture...but the picture doesn't show us what we are asking about.
