geartox 597 Posted January 29, 2017 Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 Really interesting stuff provided by Eltech. And it's not so expensive. Does someone has already bought Eltech products and can share with us his feedback ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rancid 104 Posted January 29, 2017 Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 I bought some steering wheel spacers from them. Good quality and good service. Quote '....it makes every other roadster look just a little bit cissy...' Link to post Share on other sites
geartox 597 Posted January 29, 2017 Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 (edited) thanks. I have asked them some pictures about the rear wing to compare between the two size proposed. From my point of view the Eltech rear wing has better design than the one of the 380 Edited January 29, 2017 by geartox Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NANO 128 Posted January 29, 2017 Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 Salut Nicolas If you look at this link to see what I've done ... I can only say "very well", very happy with the quality (very iportante), the service offered and also the prices they do. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

From my point of view the Eltech rear wing has better design than the one of the 380 Be careful if you are looking at the rear boot mount that uses the existing factory holes etc as both Eltech and SSC advised me that the bigger wing is not safe to mount on the boot, has to be mounted in to the clam directly (ie cutting the clam and mounting to the chassis through the boot) as the downward force will crack the clam.

I'm led to believe a wing of less than 1300-1350mm width should be fine on the boot. 1 Quote www.alias23.com Link to post Share on other sites

Reverie's setup on the boot mounted version is around 1300mm by 310mm Personally i'd probably go a smaller chord than 310mm. Quote www.alias23.com Link to post Share on other sites

550superfast 447 Posted January 31, 2017 Report Share Posted January 31, 2017 Norbert, how much power do you think it is making after 5-8 hard laps? Are you getting any heat soak and loss of power? Or with the charge cooling do you think it maintains it's 460? Did you get any figures (power and intake temps) from Komotec after multiple power runs?

Great Lap its remarkable how usable all that extra power is. ? Thanks! You are absolutely right. The power usability was a big concern for me before I did the upgrade. Its definitely not a concern anymore - it comes in very controlable. It was just my second time in Spa and the lap doesnt do the car justice. My theoretic best already was 4 sec faster and with some more experience in Spa and more pushing closer to the limit (I am not even touching most of the curbs) I am sure 10 secs less are possible.

Did you get any figures (power and intake temps) from Komotec after multiple power runs? I did the upgrade in October and so far have not had any outside temperatures that bring the car anywhere close to heat soak. I will know more in summer time this year. KT has done heat studies with the Kit and they showed me the data compared to Standard and EX430. There was a significant difference in intake temps after multiple runs at 25C. Re the power: I believe the car is really close to 460 hp - I have a good comparisson with my AC Schnitzer BMW M4 (with 510 hp) and that car goes from 100-200 kmh like hell. The Exige is faster. 12 hours ago, geartox said: @NW76 : the sound seems quite different than stock It does in real even more than one the video. But you have to remember that I have sport cats and sport manfolds in addition to the airbox. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
