Sven76 0 Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Stage 2 is intercooler? Any news? KomoTec works with MotoConcept together to get this done, but understand that development is going veeeery slowly Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TBD 782 Posted March 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2013 I believe stage 2 has to to with an alternative air box. On facebook they stated that both Stage 1 nd 2 would be out after easter. So, start saving your easter eggs.

Exploded 23 Posted July 19, 2013 Report Share Posted July 19, 2013 The gearboxes and certainly the clutches are having very hard times with the standard power, especially when tracked. Aadding 54 hp and certainly giving more torque, won't help I'm afraid. A standard Exige V6 is already a rocket at the tracks, really scary fast... But I must admit the video looks cool ;-) Quote Calypso Rose Rules the World! Link to post Share on other sites

But I must admit the video looks cool ;-) Having a hard time - do you want to expand on that with examples of what's actually happened. There can't be too many out there that are being heavily tracked yet. I'm not that impressed by the video. He's posted a slower time to 60 than Autocar did in their test two up with a full tank of fuel. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Pits 4,411 Posted August 1, 2013 Report Share Posted August 1, 2013 I read on their website that stage 1 was sports cats, air filter, exhaust system (including manifolds) and ecu tinkering. Stage 2 adds a bit more boost with a smaller pulley. No mention of intercoolers. It would be interesting to see the gains if someone developed a good intercooler option. Should be pretty healthy. Looks like there's a lot of potential in that V6. I'm quite sure the brakes and suspension are well up to it but no idea what the gearbox can handle. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kelvin_H 0 Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 If it's this easy and the reliability is retained then Lotus should offer such an upgrade path that retains the factory warranty like say Mountune do with Ford. They'd sell loads of them although the reliability is the key thing, especially of the drivetrain. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Pits 4,411 Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 Agreed but it might not help sales of the new Exige 400S or whatever Lotus decide to call it when it comes out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
