    I4 Turbo Trans Update

    Just to add here and I believe this was a knock on the early dct software. If you hold downshift paddle it'll grab the lowest possible gear allowing for a 2 gear downshift. Earlier software, as I've read, wouldn't allow that.

    I4 Turbo Trans Update

    I had no idea about the paddle option until I stumbled across Lotus F1 video online.....it's a pretty cool option but since the most recent dct update, I bang into 1st gear super quick with the lever - feels a bit more positive imo

    I4 Turbo Trans Update

    My last update cleaned up the gear selection dance and shift speed. Im pretty much good as is but will welcome any improvement.....barring just a few quality niggles, this car with jb4 is approaching driving perfection imo. I never expected to put so many miles on it but can't keep myself out...

    I4 Turbo Trans Update

    "are you refering to the transmission update everyone is waiting for or is this something new?" Whatever updates were made to the 26 model is the one ready to be distributed.

    I4 Turbo Trans Update

    Fyi... Spoke with lotus engineering and there's a dct software update waiting for release. Its the current version in the 26 car. Lotus is trying to figure who will pay for it, the customer as an update or Lotus as a retro fit. Im told within next couple of months. I doubt we get notice...

    Just passed the break-in mileage - impressions

    After the jb4 install, my tuner took it out and was completely blown away losing traction at highway speeds ....she's fast with real visceral impact. And to think the turbo variant was considered the base model, lol
