Any update on the re-dyno?

Is this wheel figures or converted to crank?

Side question what did you use to paint the gears? Any other color than red? Looks good

Happy Saturday! Wanted to circle back and see if anyone wants to be part of the next group buy? Please DM me name, email and phone number if interested in any of the Tuning stages 440-600hp. Will try and get this group completed by October this year.

Yes the powerflex! Highly recommend as well no NVH increase.

I’m in the US. I have the 460 kit with high flow cat and JUBU cooling kit. My engine operating temp is 173-175 Fahrenheit which has been fantastic from the stock 200 degrees! I have other mods like GRP SS and the black motor mounts. The 440 kit I did myself which is really easy. The 460 I had...

No, V6 Manual.

I have the JUBU 460 with rev limit set to 7200. My dash shows 7000 redline, but I can take it to 7200 and I have a soft limiter on. It would be nice to have it read 7200 but I have gotten use to it at least it shows 7k and not 6,800. I’ve been really happy with it.

Black! Highly recommend no NVH!

I agree, you have to know what you’re getting into. If you do and willing to make those upgrades then it’s the best car money can buy. I mean look at the new SE starting at just over 130k and doesn’t solve any of these. Best yo upgrade why you have then chase the next best thing. Yeah I’ve...

Yea only option is a JUBU tuning. New ECU and can do all this. Currently have the 460 kit with the cooling upgrade. I run track mode and run it hard and engine temp is max 175 degrees Fahrenheit. I love it!

I did a dyno with the upgrade to make sure we did plenty of WOT pulls. Rene made tweaks and 1 time on the dyno yes that happened. He was making adjustments and the adjustment made car wasn’t happy. He could see it live and fixed it. We did more runs to ensure everything was good and no issues...

Yes correct!

Hope everyone has been doing well! I recently have gone from the 440 to the 460 kit. Had it for 1 week and wanted to share my thoughts. Its only a 20 hp gain but I love the car even more now! Larger pully so my boost decreased. I can feel the gain everywhere but mainly mid and high but I can...

No I had the shop install these, they charged me 2 hours for the mount job.

Got it back and they replaced all clamps like I said. No issues all good! It was a hot day here today, my car was reading 95 degrees outside. I was in a some traffic on the way home and standstill in traffic engine temp was 180 degrees max. The harder I drove it the lower it went down to...

Anyone on the fence just buy them! Such a great little mod but so much improvement! I also went with the black and no added NVH that I can tell at all and I notice everything lol

Both. GRP cleaned up the extra play and it’s significantly shorter. I do have it on the max shortness. But it would be hard to get to reverse and first gear sometimes. I would have to put it in N then back to one of those gears. Also the 1st 2nd was shorter but still fighting you to do a 1-2...

Idk what lotus is doing with the new shifter but I just got my car back drove it home after some upgrades. I had the GRP SS which is a must but had the black powerflex trans mount installed and man the shifting it’s so sharp and smooth! No NVH that I can tell at all too!

I did both! My shop took almost 10 hours to install it! The manual says to drop the motor, JUBU told them they don’t have to. JUBU states it’s a 2 hour job but they know what they are doing. Shop gave me a discount for the work but still way more that I expected! The bad news…😢 -idk what...

Those that have installed it what’s your running engine temp?

Might be for the auto only, idk if the manual could get the blind spot warning in the mirrors but could be wrong.

Interesting on the cooling updates they did. Wonder where they got that idea as JUBU has had that out for awhile now and I just did the cooling upgrade on mine. More to come as I’m hopefully picking up the car today after the new 460 kit is in. I do love the green thou!

Weird territory for Lotus. I love V8’s and have 2 in my garage TRX and Jeep 392. Heavy but extremely fun pigs for off-road and great daily’s. I’ve had plenty of V8 sports cars not supercars. Absolute blast and always puts a smile on your face but the V6 in the Emira tuned with an exhaust has...

Just found out what happened. Yes it was permanent track use but that not the issue could have been but they used a valve controller and had it closed in track all the time based on noise regulations which puts lots of stress on the engine too. So combination of things for sure. We all wish...

I have the JUBU 440 so it increases power no need for the JB4. I’m going with the 460 kit soon with JUBU. JB4 wasn’t an option when I decide to increase power and RPM. Will be interesting to see that. I will be doing dyno with the 460 kit and will post updates on the JUBU forum I have.

Yea I have a JUBU tune with the 7200 rpm and it’s perfect! Stock always felt jt cut short and it definitely has more pull upper rpm’s. I’ve yet to hit the limiter with the 7200 set up. I think that’s perfect and safe increase. You can go higher but would require new parts and lots of labor cost...

So there is no way to replace the value motor only. It has to be the entire system which is like 3600k. I have the Milltek exhaust so I would have to swap back to oem to take it in. That’s a pain in the ass. Does anyone know of a aftermarket value motor or a way I can get just the motor?

Done! Thank you.

Yeah let me know next time as well I’ll try and join too

I have a full Milltek system. So you’re saying I would need to replace the OEM valve unit?

No it’s stuck open if it was stuck closed I’m sure I would have gotten that error. I saw the little spring and motor it’s attached. When I used the remote and look at it. I can hear it move and see it trying to move. It move very little but like it’s suppose to. So that’s my question if my...

Yeah true! lol Is that what you think is the problem with the valve? I can hear the motor moving but it’s not moving the valve inside at all. I thought maybe it was something I can open up and fix.

I was hoping not to do that as it’s 3 hours away. Is that the only option?

anyone know how to fix a value controller that isn’t working? I have the Milltek controller and noticed it sounded the same in all models. I could hear the motor moving something but I couldn’t tell the difference. So I bought a endoscope and sure enough it’s open and doesn’t close with any...

Couldn’t agree more. I have LC with my JUBU 440 with my V6 manual but I’ve used it only 4 times on that cold day above I stated above. Don’t want to keep doing it, but it’s fun for sure bc it’s actually LC holds rpms and all but it’s the clutch I’m worried about. I had at least half a second of...

Same. My 4.39 was with a draggy, on a cold day as stated above. I’m not stock thou with the 440 JUBU so will be interesting to see everyone’s best numbers. I will be going with the 460 JUBU probably late spring early summer so will do times on the 440 first then the 460.

I hit 4.39 but it was around 50 degrees and the road cold and not ideal. I was spinning for at least half a second or so it seemed. Once it warms up I’ll redo it and I think I should be able to hit 60 under 4 or right at it with how I’m set up. I’ll post results when I do which will be a bit.
