    Wishbone Feedback Requested - Need More Camber?

    Full spherical kit would be awesome! Jubu only place that sells them right now so they'll be tariffs. Wishbones keep the tires more planted but I assume people who do regular track duty want at least another degree front and rear - in the canyons maybe just a tad more in front? Hard to tell...

    The exhaust Shinoo made for the 4C that I used was LOUD but didn't drone - great combo

    Upgraded Intercooler

    and now there's an M139 with an E-turbo...damn wish we could use that somehow, not the whole battery pack but just full time e-turbo to fill in the gap - I found one online but we'd need full ecu control I think, same for upgraded hybrid turbos we would need ability to control wastegate and all...

    Upgraded Intercooler

    oof $2700 is pricey for one small intercooler core...yeah something in the US should be like $1500-ish, strange no one makes one here already seems like a no brainer for the M139 applications

    Upgraded Intercooler

    @docron found this and waiting for replies Also quick query to my shop and another one pretty easy to make these in the States they just need an OEM core to measure out. When I look up the intake manifold it's also just a plastic reinforced piece...would be great to get that entire pathway...

    Adding a subwoofer

    several of us have only done the doors and the complete rear firewall area (including the wrap around area up the doors) and it's a very noticeable difference in overall noise - you will never get rid of all the tire noise coming through the floor, wheel wells, roof, front dash area, etc. but I...

    Upgraded Intercooler

    Definitely share where you end up placing the second nozzle, everything seems to be plastic around the intake manifold though again I think you could make a sandwich plate somewhere.

    Upgraded Intercooler

    Awesome! I'll ask Jason about eta for times and stuff. Are you planning on meth also? I spoke at length with my shop they are thinking it'll be fine to place the nozzle pre intercooler since there is lots of length there for the spray to atomize and not pool at the bottom of the intercooler...

    Upgraded Intercooler

    resurrecting an older thread: @675430VME are the prices for the Snowtech core and coolers still around the same price? iirc you said the intercooler was $1700 USD? has anyone tried to import into the US and dealt with tariffs and all that?

    JB4 Thread for Lotus Emira AMG i4 (M139 Engine) – Tuning, Setup, Results & Support

    my shop moved the AC compressor but they also have the rear of the car kind of apart...tech did say it was a bitch and he feels bad for someone trying to do this themselves in their garage, not impossible but hard lol.

    JB4 Thread for Lotus Emira AMG i4 (M139 Engine) – Tuning, Setup, Results & Support

    I'll ask shop today where they are putting the injector - wonder why Weistec has it pre, maybe because there isn't enough length post and all the sensors - will start different thread for the build so it doesn't clog up this JB4 thread

    JB4 Thread for Lotus Emira AMG i4 (M139 Engine) – Tuning, Setup, Results & Support

    I bought the pre-bunged Weistec charge pipe to save some time, here is the pipe compared to stock. It's always post intercooler with methanol injection to not only chemically cool but to clean the combustion chamber, valves, piston heads. I am using the pump and tank from Snow Performance, and...

    JB4 Thread for Lotus Emira AMG i4 (M139 Engine) – Tuning, Setup, Results & Support

    This post has absolutely no value other than showing the back of my car naked lol. Shop is about to start installing the methanol kit - when they did my Alfa 4C they made the entire thing invisible other than the tank in the trunk. They'll not modify a single thing on the chassis or car...

    Jubu monoballs + jubu motor mount + powerflex tranny mounts + nitron Er1 coilovers = ?!?

    Not crazy at all. Plus remember (in the States) there's no passenger seat warning light defeat. I just ignore the triangle and warning sign on my dash but have considered putting back in my passenger seat for the time being.

    JB4 Thread for Lotus Emira AMG i4 (M139 Engine) – Tuning, Setup, Results & Support

    Mine will be installed in next couple of weeks alongside methanol injection and it'll be run on the dyno at DRS. I'll ask them to do baseline, meth+91 and possibly meth+100 since I have a station right next to me with 100 in Pasadena. Also be good to get a different set of dyno numbers to...

    Wow - I might be going to the I4 Darkside

    I also have the Aerie extended paddles, I don't even hear or notice them now - like anything in life it just gets zeroed out by your brain. Huge positive engagement, and you can even modulate your pull to keep the click quiet if you want. And yeah, in bumper to bumper traffic I just put the car...

    Emira JB4 Tuning Now Available for I4 & V6 Cars!

    I haven't read about that being a common issue with the tuned A45 S cars running crazy power think it's fine. Anyways just break and replace with stronger stuff, sure there's cryo gears and upgraded clutch that's been already developed

    Auto only: Turbo vs V6?

    V6: wins on incredible sound alone with all the goodies at the rear end (cat delete, open exhaust) - and assuming you can mod the shifter assembly and cables like on other Lotus (like Shinoo's entire assembly on the Elise) I am sure you can get the shift action to be notchy with good feel I4...

    GRP Harness Bar installation

    the 4 point Schroth with 2" belts all around from GRP are great...super comfortable on the road, the lap belts don't ride up if you cinch them tight. Highly recommend for fast road use. Also in combination with the Bride Gias III I feel it's the perfect dual use setup. Without the 4 points and...

    Los Angeles Canyon Meet

    for me they've been great...they are pro-mod and treat their job as to represent you the best to Lotus should you need service. They thought my car had a tune and were excited to ask me about it and which one I did, etc. (their butt dyno thought my I4 was faster than others). Come warranty...
