    V8 Emira being considered to replace V6

    Saw something Yesterday, along the lines of Trump lowering/rolling back the US emissions standard or efficiency requirement. If that's the case suspect they will just leave the current engines in place. Perhaps up the turbo cars HP by 30 HP...

    Lotus moving in a better direction

    [They truly make a V8 Emira and I will 100% trade up if it sounds as glorious as the V6.] Most people in this forum are 'stick' lovers - the Mecedes V8 would likely be a DCT...and probably $50k more expensive.

    DCT gets "stuck" in a gear when in Auto mode

    Have about 1,00o miles on mine. Haven't enchanted this issue you describe. Unless your in track mode, track mode really holds the gear into higher RPMs/

    Wide angle driver's side mirror (US market)

    Hi Kaz, I asked GRP last year. At the time he didn't think there would be enough interest. I'm still interested. Perhaps one of the Forum members living in the UK can order on our behalf?

    Emira I4 ECU Flash Tuning is Now Possible (~510HP Turbo)

    [difference is the Emira ECU must be opened, the Mercedes M139 ECU does not need to be opened.] Interesting, thanks for enlightening me. Assumed the ECUs would be almost identical. With tuners going down the cloning path leveraging an older MB ECU do you foresee any issues with leveraging...

    Emira I4 ECU Flash Tuning is Now Possible (~510HP Turbo)

    [Yeah, im a little hesitant shipping my ECU across the Atlantic getting lost and/or risking tariffs on the return.] What is your solution? I have the same concern - even shipping stateside. If the package gets lost or damaged, you'll be stuck. Buying a used ECU and sending to be...

    Emira I4 ECU Flash Tuning is Now Possible (~510HP Turbo)

    VF tuner has an interest thread for an ECU clone + tune. [https://www.emiraforum.com/threads/vf-tuner-i4-ecu-tuning-interest-thread.6987/] But think he'll need a lot of commitments in order to justify picking up a AMG Emria to experiment on and buildout maps. Another member stated EST is...
