I would certainly think so, but in talking to Greg today he is confident in the track record of Eventuri and their development success. I orderd the kit, but will wait until GRP installs one on their project car for the mere purpose of a good installation write up.

I had the Milltek 3rd cat delete, Milltek exhaust, and Milltek controller installed last Thursday. Also had a GRP mid pipe installed (non insulated version). I plan on running valve open 100% of the time. A truly transformative upgrade. Zero code issues.

2450/2750 Euros for the side/rear vents is insane. Aerie is close to releasing the side and rear vents at a much more reasonable price point (I hope). I have the front vents, but want to do all of the vents at the same time.

Lotus is a rudderless mess right now. I‘m not optimistic about the long term health of the company😔

Some photos of the Aerie Carbon Fiber pieces installed on my Emira. Very high quality carbon and an easy installation. Everything matched up to OEM fitment and existing hardware.

I plan on leaving the valve open 100% of the time. My wife’s hearing isn’t the best, so I’ve got that going for me.🤣

Some of the UK Emira customers have been running the Milltek exhaust for quite awhile and I’m not aware of any widespread issues with the valve not functioning properly. I’ve contacted Milltek in the U.S. asking specifically about this issue and I feel they would be honest if a problem did...

I have the the rear diffuser, front splitter, and side skirts installed. Fitment was seamless. IMO, very high quality Carbon Fiber. Unfortunately, I’m on vacation right now. I’ll get photos uploaded when I get home over the weekend

It’s interesting - Porsche takes a different approach (at least in my experience). They know many of their customers want to do mods for the track or a more aggressive street set up. I have a ‘23 GT4 with Fabspeed exhaust and a M-Engineering tune. Not a mention of voiding the warranty from...

Exploring re-entry into F1😳 I’d love to see it, but talk about a huge financial commitment-serious $$$ required.

That is certainly unfortunate 😔 Milltek has established a few U.S. Lotus dealerships as authorized distributors/installers. Lotus Detroit, Lotus of DC, and Lotus Jacksonville so far. Maybe this info will help your cause🙏

This would be really good to know. I haven’t had the “discussion“:with my Lotus dealer about installing the exhaust 😳

That’s the way I understand it as well after communication with Milltek in the U.S. I’m waiting on the GRP Midpipe and then I will have the Milltek 3rd cat delete, Milltek exhaust, and valve controller (using OEM valve) installed.

Zero issues and 250 miles on the odometer. From my Evora400 ownership, I know things can change very quickly - for the worse😳

Ditto

I have this kit on order as well. I’m sure Aerie will see this post and provide an update

I must say Porter, you are a wealth of information 👍

:ROFLMAO:

Doesn’t hurt to ask😉 I know when McLaren did updates for the Artura, it was known what issues the update addressed. Not that Lotus is McLaren. My Evora 400 has been serviced at the same dealer where my Emira is currently impounded and I’m pretty sure the service manager will share what info...

I have really good relationship with my local Lotus dealer and I can ask them what was included in the latest update. I’ll stop by the dealership tomorrow. I hope they will be forthright in sharing the information.

I like the positivity 😊

Appreciate ya KitKat 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Is it possible the EO would be issued, but a time lag as to when the website is updated?

Come on Porter. We need your insight😉

St Louis Auto Detail does great work on paint correction, ceramic, ppf, etc. The shop is 5 minutes from Holman. If you go in the shop, you’ll see exotics from most manufacturers being worked on by really high quality people. Ask for Steve or Matt (the owner). My Emira is going there for the...

I was hoping that could be the case and a great relief If true. My blood pressure just went down significantly.😊

Isn’t the current European emissions requirement stricter than the current CARB standard? If the above is true, why would Lotus need to alter the engine performance to meet CARB when they have already met the Euro standard? I‘m probably taking a simplistic view of a complicated issue.😳 Maybe...

The new McLaren 750S

The driving season in St Louis is around the corner. My Evora is for sale on consignment at my Lotus dealer in preparation for my Emira. I have a 2023 GT4 that keeps me happy, but if the Emira release goes beyond mid March I’ll be really annoyed - just like all of us that are waiting.

Right on. I had red calipers on my Chrome Orange Evora and it worked. When I did my Emira build there was just to much risk going bold on the interior choice - for me.

The exact reason I did Hethel Yellow + full black pack, black interior, yellow contrast stitching, and black calipers

Yep K_Squared, a lot of us are in the same boat.

You’re right Porter. Porsche’s Track Your Dream is light years ahead of what Lotus provides, which is absolutely nothing.

In true Lotus fashion, I’m still waiting on my “pain and suffering” consolation prize.😩

Levity is good for the soul, especially with all the pain and suffering we’ve endured along this journey.

I like the Aerie lines on the front splitter and rocker panels/side skirts. Definitely has an OEM look. I‘ll order the front splitter and side air vents when available, gotta think about the lower side skirts.

I’m going to Turks & Caicos for a month🌴🍹😎 What’s the over/under CARB will be done when I get back🤪 No offense, but I won’t be checking the forum.

I thought the same thing a few days ago about the de-tuning idea and KitKat put an end to that scenario. I was told by my SA the delay is solely due to the Lotus paperwork not making it through the que and that other applications are still ahead of Lotus. Hard to know what to believe at this...

Thanks Kitkat. Such a sh**show. An idle mind is a terrible thing.

Wonderful. I can stop doubling up on my anti anxiety meds🤣
