    US I4 (400hp) has fake engine noise pumped through speakers

    My guess would be if you don’t have a 3rd cat delete, and valve controller install, then maybe you can hear something? But even before I did those things, I could t hear it. And there’s definitely no way for a synthetic sound to replicate and randomize burbles and pops like the decat and valve...

    US I4 (400hp) has fake engine noise pumped through speakers

    How noticeable is the fake sound? I have a v6 auto and want to be sure all cars aren’t affected. Can anyone confirm? I can’t believe Lotus did this. Who approved it? Why isn’t this bigger news?

    BEST 3rd Cat Delete (for USA customer)

    I did my decat with around 300 miles on it I believe and the OEM gasket was NOT reusable.

    Filmed a video of my Emira in Miami

    Yes. I own a video production company! www.motivecinemas.com 😁 My day job is actually filming “high end” weddings. I also ghost produce a lot of content for the tactical and firearms industry but I don’t post that work.

    Filmed a video of my Emira in Miami

    Lotus actually contacted me and I gave them permission to post the first one. I do have a direct line of communication with someone on their marketing team but that’s as far as it has gone. I do have to send them this new one though. And to be honest. The high end work they do is REALLY good...

    Filmed a video of my Emira in Miami

    This time around I personally did not do any filming (only editing). My friend used his Sony a7s3 on a ronin and we used the dji osmo for the rolling shots. I’ll post some BTS pics in a second to the thread! I did film this one though:

    I would definitely recommend the valve controller. It really does bring out the monster in the emira.

    Why no Sport Mode during 1,000 mile break-in?

    I literally switched in to sport mode leaving the dealership. Then read the same thing on facebook and on here about not using sport mode. I don't see why you wouldn't be able to use sport mode as long as you stay under the 4000rpm break in limit. 🤷‍♂️

    Attaching the Car key to other keys

    Hey! So yeah im from Miami and my tracker is working perfectly fine. The dealership set it up for me the day before I arrived and when we turned the car on to go over everything in the parking lot, I got an email confirming that car was successfully registered. Where in Miami are you from? I've...

    Attaching the Car key to other keys

    Take a look at my setup. I bought a Lotus Leather key ring when I went to England and did the factory tour. It came with a small cord attachment that's perfect for the Emira's key. Here is the direct link to the one I bought (mine is green though)...

    Lotus Emira DIY jacking points / under body view

    We used them sideways so that they were on the jacking pads. Longways didn't reach, but it did reach the rail. We wanted to make sure 100% that we were using the pads. The front jack did rub against the front tires a bit though. They were pushed as forward as they could have been. On the first...

    Lotus Emira DIY jacking points / under body view

    We used quickjacks today to do a decat and valve controller on two emiras (shoutout to Peter if he sees this). We used the quickjacks "sideways" and they worked fine. Both emiras off the ground and back on safely with no issues. Would I recommend this? No. But it worked.

    Whoops. I thought the break in was just not going over 4000rpm. Didn’t know the mode you drive in mattered.
