We are planning to create mufflers for the i4 Emira that will make it sound more exciting without introducing drone. We created an excellent muffler for the Alfa 4C that also has a Turbo 4. This quote came from a Auto Exec: Our solution(s) will be produced here in CA. Our sonicFURY...

Here is another bar we created for the S1 Evoras.

Yes, we learned about anti-rotation back in 2005 on the Elise. Our first bar lacked it and Joe Marko, Schroth USA, pointed out the potential problem. We immediately redesigned the bar and created the 4tress Harness Bar - see below. Those additional brackets kept the main bar from rotating...

Anti-rotation has been engineered in. We actually have two redundant mechanisms that will prevent rotation. You just can't see it in this picture. We should have a 'final' design into the car next week. The secondary anti-rotation idea is fairly novel - I don't believe it has ever been...

We took delivery of a car that was hit in the rear and then pushed into the car in front. The major damage is in the rear. We are Blogging about it: HERE I'll post it below: Emira Collision: Part 1 The Lotus Emira has been in the US for just over a year now. A crashed car has made it's...

We have a proto in the car to confirm our ideas...hope to have a completed bar in place next week.

If you have not heard of Girodisc, watch our Tech Seminar video from earlier this year: HERE We have worked closely with them since 2005 and the owner is a good friend of mine. We also purchase the rotors directly from them - all other vendors buy through distribution. Since we buy direct, we...

Yes, as this third cat is post the O2 sensors. Technically you are messing with the emissions equipment which is not legal. I would be surprised if any inspection includes taking the rear of the car apart to inspect. FYI, these third cats are installed to add longevity to the emissions...

The install is not insignificant. We have an Emira here with the rear clam off and even then, it is a time consuming job. How many hours were charged to those of you who paid a shop to do the work?

No, I cruised on the highway for hours testing both open and closed. No problem. Our Emira Decat pipe now comes with a gasket and hardware so bolts on easily.

We developed a nice shift action improvement solution for the Evora that we have now fit to a V6 Emira manual. Learn more: HERE I have heard from people that are questioning the shift action in an Emira. I have driven 5+ Emira V6s and have not had the trouble some are stating. This kit...

Cool, the bar is not designed to add any meaningful rigidity - just safely position the 4pt harness for track use. We should be building the proto next week...

Come anyway and meet up. We can talk about your plans with your Emira...
