    My fuel consumption increased. I think that says a lot about how this thing changes your driving style ;) Do it.

    VF Tuner - Upgraded Supercharger Lid

    Makes sense, and I don't think anyone on here will deny that. I think there may be some confusion as to where we are with that one design: Could you please confirm if your request for input regarding the lid design is still outstanding, or if you have already decided on a design. If the...

    VF Tuner - Upgraded Supercharger Lid

    Deep down, I feel the same way. However, it is a commercial product developed and marketed for profit, so would only be fair to have the logo of the business somewhere. A screw-on metal plate that the end user can choose to modify as fit would be nice.

    VF Tuner - Upgraded Supercharger Lid

    Just a whole bunch of ridges (for.increased cooling) and maybe a small VF logo in the bottom right corner works for.me. No lettering, no licensing hassle, minImalist design.

    Seat panel detaching, anybody else having this issue?

    I would suggest you zip tie it so it doesn't rock 'n roll all over the place.

    VF Tuner - Upgraded Supercharger Lid

    Looks nice. In the final version, will the "V6", horizontal line, and "SUPERCHARGED" be in silver (clear satin?)? Also, if the "VF" logo can be lowered to the same height as the other lettering, I think it will be more subtle, and we might shave a few more grams. I'd love to see the color...

    VF Tuner - Upgraded Supercharger Lid

    Agree. Just want to stay away from diagonal lines because they will not match up with my carbon fiber weaves, and it will drive me crazy. An inverted image of the inner side, showing the location of the fins might be cool as a back ground, with a simple "SUPERCHARGED V6".

    VF Tuner - Upgraded Supercharger Lid

    I'm with you on the branding part, but hey, I think the manufacturers deserve credit for the development and all. The "VF" logo in lid color would be clean and official looking. Or should it be "V6 SUPERCHARGED" ???

    4-point harness

    Do the anchors for the lower 2 belts (lap belts) go "on top" of the OEM lap belts, or should they go "under" (between the anchor point and the 4 point belt) ?

    We have yet to see the final design and colors, but if it is what I hope it is, please count me in.

    VF Tuner - Upgraded Supercharger Lid

    Yay! If one design is "EMIRA V6" in silver (clear showing the base aluminum) with everything else in the base color (dark grey is my choice), that would get my vote. The OEM look: "EMIRA V6" instead of "LOTUS" in silver, "VF" instead of "V6" in base color.

    The same applies to "EMIRA"? Replacing the "LOTUS" with "EMIRA V6" will keep the OEM look. Even better if the anodized layer is machined off and a clear coat applied...

    12V Tire Inflator

    What’s wrong with the one already in the Emira's trunk? It's a little slow, but it works.

    VF Tuner - Upgraded Supercharger Lid

    Great news! Will there be other color options? I would prefer a stealthy grey tone, with maybe the "V6" part in silver.

    Japan - Emira Ownership (エミーラ納車とその後)

    I know, I know... Measurements taken on different days under different conditions, but here are the results. 測定条件がビミョーに異なったりしてますが、ノーマル触媒と GRP 3rd Cat Delete パイプの比較をしてみました。近接排気音値が基準値 97dB を少し上回っているようにも見えますが、検査場での検査環境や手順を考えると誤差の範囲だと思います。 It was hot today, so the engine was already warmed up when...

    Harnessbar Product Feedback requested

    Will it allow the use of the plastic seat belt mount point covers, or do they have to stay removed? All the pictures so far show exposed hardware near the driver's head.

    Correct. I was referring to pure (99.9%) toluene, the stuff that petrol companies use in their gasoline mixes. It burns but is also a strong solvent, so can't mix too strong.

    Matt Windle leaves Lotus

    There is so much we don't know about the new management... Would be nice if she relocates to Norfolk with helmet and gloves, sets a course record around Hethel, and does a tear-down / rebuild of a V6 transmission.

    Connecting to WiFi. What's the point?

    I think it diverts moisture out through WiFi, delaying the inevitable paint blisters.

    Sketchy Experince on Offramp?

    Your tires are probably not heated up. Find a patrol car a few miles before your exit and slip in front of it. Floor it, then brake check. Repeat until your exit comes up. Go.
