    Eventuri development

    Ah, makes sense. I assume the intake duct work has some drain holes, but I would avoid shooting water directly up the side vents. The filter should sit a little higher than the vent as well, but I'm not 100%. I doubt it's an issue though.

    FWIW @Eagle7, RAYS ENGINEERING stated for every 2.2lbs of weight eliminated from unsprung weight is equal to eliminating 33lbs of overall vehicle weight that your suspension has to manage. So, (23.47/2.2) x 33 = ~352 lbs of reduced weight off suspension with your new wheels! I know this isn't...

    Eventuri development

    Nah, that stuff is never really an issue unless you're going through a torrential hurricane or driving through water higher than your air filter with your foot on the throttle. I wouldn't worry about it and always remove the stock air filter restrictions when I buy a vehicle.. or just buy an...

    Ah that's not gonna cause much turbulence. It all gets shoved into the supercharger that's gonna compress the air anyway.

    Hey guys, haven't updated this journal lately and figured I'd share some recent pics. Car season has been in full effect and getting the Evora out as often as possible. Ended up getting new Continental ECS02s and absolutely loving them. They were on sale Memorial Day weekend at TireRack for like...

    Battery Tender not seeing battery

    What's the rush for a battery charger? It's summertime and you're in FL, right? Just drive the car at least every couple weeks and it should be fine. I'd return the extra Noco charger and just wait for the free one from Lotus.

    Fuse Box Location for 12V behind arm rest

    If it's the same as the Evora, the fuse box for that one is located behind the passenger side kick panel. Remove the mat and pull the carpet back a little to expose 4 turn keys that'll allow you to remove the kick panel. The fuse box is back there.

    i4 wih 400HP - post from another Lotus Forum

    Yes. Turbo cars typically benefit greatly from a simple reflash. The M139 engine has been tuned with amazing power gains in other platforms so I expect there to be quite a few options for the i4 Emira.

    i4 wih 400HP - post from another Lotus Forum

    They did that for the China market, so it could possibly happen here, but it's all speculation until we have confirmed sources. I kinda doubt the NA market would do that after advertising the i4 power and taking orders already. Though I guess buyers wouldn't complain when their order arrives...

    Right there with ya. I thought about lifting the roof on my small detached garage, but it's just not worth it. When I was shopping 570s I was measuring vertical distances to make sure I could open the door inside the garage and it was like an inch off from hitting the garage door track. First...

    Wow, 16.5whp is impressive for an intake!! Congrats and thanks for doing this @Eagle7. I'm also impressed the shop was able to do the base run, install the intake, and second run in ~1.5 hours. I'm guessing they just left the hub dyno attached while they installed the intake? Any pics of the...

    Water drains into the engine bay if hatch is opened when car is wet?

    I don't have any experience with this, but did you attempt to tighten those bolts? They look stripped! You shouldn't have any water inside the hatch.

    Emira Issues - from final production cars

    Just ask your dealer if it's ok. My local dealer said there's no issue with a 3rd cat delete. It all depends on the claim. Some major warranty claims may need to get in-person approval from Lotus of US, but even then, they legally have to prove the 3rd cat delete (or whatever the aftermarket...

    Emira Initial Impressions - It's Heavy, Far Too Heavy.

    This almost feels like an AI post since literally every critique has been said many times here. 🤔 Even so.. The vehicles you're comparing the Emira to are at least x2 the price. And the Evora, the Emira's predecessor, has been out for nearly 20 years and weighs almost as much. So it's not like...

    Tailgating

    I noticed this the day I bought my Lotus and drove it home. Cars would run up on me constantly.. eventually I figured out they were just trying to figure out what it was. It'll happen now and then when you drive an exotic.
