Lotus Emira V6 ECU Tune - Bench Flash

[VF Tuner]

Wait for our updated throttle tunes before making a final judgement, this update can get the throttle open as much as 20% more.

It’s ridiculously better

Also I really appreciate you guys being patient with me the last few days, I’m overseas, jet lagged, and on opposite time zones at the moment

Not sure how long.

Yes I have them, thats why 172

Did you get the JUBU race thermostat?

Yes, Road and Track thermostat.

I’ll send pics when I get out today. Yes, my trunk barely gets warm even after long drives BUT I also had insulation installed right above the exhaust under the trunk which pretty much copied someone’s post on this forum. So, I don’t know much the vent kit is contributing.

As far as the work, it was done by my shop and yea it requires professional work.

I’m up north near the outlets but I do a lot of driving around GA. My 2024 (bought in late 23) truck has 99,000 miles already.

I was thinking about this ECU today. Are you still able to manipulate sport and track modes? Can you manipulate the traction control as desired? (i.e. turn it all the way off in track mode?)

I'm not sure if I ever saw a response, but if we had the ability to leave it in one mode, such as sport, upon startup, that would be huge!

It seems to be stock in all respects to how the modes operate. Starts in Tour mode and switching modes changes valve operation and track still turns off traction control or at least the icons still light up in the dash.

Good to know! Thank you for the feedback!

I don’t want to be obnoxious but it was chilly this morning and the car is a lot faster. I’m not kidding man. And if you know how to launch this car (if you do it right) you launch from a stop like a slingshot. It’s fast guys.

I believe there's a dyno coming up in about a week and a half.

We met years ago Mick at Petit LeMans. I had a red Elise, and think you had a green one or maybe green Exige?

We've been a week away from a dyno for about a year

The folks about to do this are on the Lotus Discord and we've been getting live owner feedback on the changes at each development update, it's not a vaporware scenario.

 

[sbproducer]

I believe the reason for no dyno is because there is an updated flash with better throttle response and power and there's no reason to dyno until that gets released which is any day now.

That is correct, but you didn’t read it from me.
You are all so lucky that you can get this.
I wish someone could do this for the V6 auto soon already!
