This sentiment is the exact reason I never proclaimed "I'M OUT" before dramatically storming off despite the routine aggravation. The Emira sport is simply the best driving car I've ever encountered by a mile and the closest thing I've felt to a motorcycle on 4 wheels, with out of this world looks! Would be forever disappointed having to settle for less...

Update from JUBU.
"Hi John,
We have worked intensively on this topic and have come up with a solution for the OEM Emira.
We were able to modify the software with our P&P Syvecs kit, so that 440hp can be realized without hesitation with all OEM parts!
This kit includes a plug & play version and is the base for a later upgrade to 460Kit, as the ECU can continue to be used with new software.
Please note - you can unplug the OEM ECU and not lose any warranty
"
And my reply.
Hi Jürgen, thanks for this, that sounds perfect.
I have one more question.
If the OEM ECU is removed, and I run the JUBU unit for say 6 months, then need to go for service, or warranty work, and re-install the OEM unit, will it be obvious to the Lotus service centre that it hasn't been in the car, by a lack of saved data log? In other words, will they know from the logs, that it has been inoperative for 6 months?
Kindest regards
Jon

Thanks for communicating with them and keeping us updated Jon, it definitely seems like this 440 option is the way to go!

It will be interesting to see how the P&P Syvecs is installed and how long it takes. My previous car had a Syvecs and it too many hours due to having things like flex fuel, fuel temp, P3 gauge, etc., where some needed bespoke wiring in.Update from JUBU.

Hopefully this will be a simple case of finding a suitable location, running 3/4 cables with cable ties abound swapping some OEM style plugs over. Where we need further clarification on is the install because I noticed you get about 200 euros off if you get someone to install. I’m in the UK so an Austria trip for anything other than a built engine isn’t an option. If we use 98/99 fuel all the time it appears there is a preset program for that but it mentions a rolling road test. For me personally this means someone to install and separately having it booked into a rolling road garage where a Syvecs specialist can attend to carry out the run and make any required adjustments. The cost of the Emira 100% I’d want a Syvecs specialist doing this because there are too many tuners who say yes to working on any system in the badis of they all basically do the same thing and I can only imagine my wife’s reaction if I had a non warranty engine failure. I think if it is only a 1 hour install which is optimistic and the rolling road side is 2/3 hours we have to budget for £750+ and no way 200 euros. It would be nice to hear there thoughts on this.
Lastly I forgot to say previously JUBU mentioned around 500nm was the safe point they were stopping at on a non built engine and the reason why the 440 is nearly the same as the 460.

I agree. I have a Dodge Viper GTS and driving that feels like a tractor compared to the EMIRA

I bet it’s great though. What engine does it have?
Usually a V10 8L or so.

How am I clogging it, I’m buying one if they have one to sell…..
There's a blue one in orlando, but the owner wants $125k for it.
After Carb's is released "soon" check the sites.

interesting... I saw that one in person last week, asked the dealer if anyone was getting rid of theirs for my friend, but they only told me about the high priced blue one.

Interested in that as well. As you said, I would think it would be pretty obvious to tell the ECU was not installed in the car due to the lack of logs.
Maybe dealer will assume something is wrong with the factory ECU

I have never driven a street bike, just dirt bikes when I was younger. What about the Emira makes it close to a motorcycle on 4 wheels in your opinion? I know your statement could be obvious but in lieu of no CARB approval, let's keep talking!

It's the light, unfiltered sensation.... It's responses are quick and responsive to the driver's desires. Every fraction that you actuate the controls, it responds accordingly, with direct feedback between the driver's inputs and vehicle's output. It's a mechanical, analog, sensitive, unassisted feeling.... akin to typing on a keyboard vs. a touch screen.
If I see any lying around I will! I'm sure it's good.
