Did you have to do anything special with the O2 sensor to avoid CEL? As I understand it, you have no cat now, right?

Not getting my hopes up, unfortunately.

That is such a wide and useful powerband. Also, the massive torque down low is going to make the car very entertaining even just moving around town.

Yes, opening the window changes the car interior from a large sealed box to a large and very leaky box. The subwoofer we have is a "fresh air" sub, which really just means infinite baffle. The reason it sounds louder when you open the window is because the "air spring" inside the car...

You should make it clear which version you have, I4 or V6. :)

I was parked when doing this measurement, but it may be related to what you have pointed out, because the wavelengths in this frequency range is very similar to the inner dimensions of a car. So my microphone could have been picking up a strong standing wave cancelation mode. These standing wave...

It's not as simple as just adjusting the EQ settings in the car. The high frequency response in the KEF system is reasonably smooth, as you can see from this measurement I made in the linked post below, which echoes a similar measurement I saw in a review...

Unpopular opinion, it sadly seems, but the stock KEF system has *PLENTY* of high frequency output, as confirmed by multiple measurements. Adding more is going to make everything sound shrill and sibilant. To me, adding the Pioneer tweeters to the KEF system is putting ketchup on steak. The...

You can see a photo of the resistor pack in this post here: https://www.emiraforum.com/threads/air-con-known-issue-no-fix-yet-edit-now-with-official-fix.3211/post-133792 It's not difficult to see and may be possible to get to without a ton of disassembly, you can give it a shot if you are...

I think every car/clutch is different and would require some judicious adjustments to launch technique. If you are doing hard launches, my thinking is that you should be letting the clutch fully lock up pretty quickly, generating some slip from higher initial engine RPM and then transitioning...

Why are there six Emiras parked at your house?

30 cars arrived recently for the US but nothing for Canada. I will add the 30 cars in a couple of days. Edit: the 30 cars that arrived on 8/20 has been added to the tracking sheet.

Emira is also a registered trademark of Lotus.

No, not sarcastic at all. I would do it all the time if I wasn't worried about premature clutch wear. Haha.

Yea, downshifting to a stop light is so entertaining. Lol
