    VF Tuner for the Lotus Emira

    Man. I need to find a brick wall to bang my head into. That seems so stupid.

    Evo Mag Article - "Can Lotus survive its latest crisis?"

    The article pokes at the pure EV cars. But honestly I think that order to create them, especially for the SUV/Xover came from Geely itself. The sheer insanity of the drive corps had to build EVs and especially SUV and crossover EVs is stupid.

    The new guy from Chicago

    I have NO idea lol. It was done by PO. About the only thing I could probably tell is the percentage if I had a light meter on it at the PPF place. They said it was good quality. I thought it was just the OEM privacy glass for the longest time, didn't know it was aftermarket.

    The new guy from Chicago

    Well, that didn't take long. I had full body PPF installed early June. Was at a car show when the event organizer announced over the speaker "will the owner of the blue Lotus come to the booth." Dread filled me. There is only ONE reason you'd get an announcement like that if you aren't...

    US Spec Lotus Update degrades power??

    Thats actually not legal. They can't change the specs and reduce the power after the car has been sold. Ford lied about the SVT Cobra back in the day and ended up having to spend millions to retrofit all the sold cars with new intake, exhaust, and a tune. You bought a car with 400hp, if that...

    VF Tuner for the Lotus Emira

    Heck as long as the Caltrain can take it I would be happy with a tune that just bumps the limiter to 7200. Just doing that alone would probably add 15-20hp and would actually increase power under the curve substantially because average power would go up a ton. But complete access to the pcm...

    If you sold your EMIRA what’s next?

    I could only step up to a C8 Z06 Z07 package car.

    What did you do to your Emira today?

    Same happened to my Focus RS. Had 1 spot where a rock pierced the film but didn't damage the paint under, it became a little bit of an eye sore as it looked like a Mole on a white car. The other spot was a rock that hit so hard it tore through the film, and actually took a chunk out of the...

    What did you do to your Emira today?

    Went on a road trip. Car earned some badges of honor. Gotta get a windshield chip repaired. :(. Hope they can repair it. Definitely gonna get the windshield film. The PPF on the paint did an amazing job. Glad I went with the thicker 10mil for the front end, a-pillars, and roof. 330 miles. Some...
