I'm still trying to figure out why after one year there are still very few after market parts for the evora. More specifically no turbo or supercharger upgrade. Please tell me it was the same when the new elise came out in 2005. Also this question is to our aftermarket suppliers here and site sponsors , Are you guys working on some stuff or you guys just don't care about the evora. I'm sure there are enough people here that own evora's and feel left alone since almost all the talk is all about the elise and exige.

That's what i heard but when i called the dealer they have no info on anything yet. I guess just like everything else it will take them a year to get all the part numbers!!

After doing tons of upgrades on my Elise, I finally sold it and got the ultimate car - the Exige 260. It has everything I need. But then the wife coerced me to buy an Evora that we could, uh, share. Needless to say, I'd be a bit happier with an SC. But after doing the aftermarket SC on the Elise, I can now say I don't want to go that route (er, headache). So if Lotus comes out with a kit for the Evora like they did for the Elise, I'd happily pay to upgrade it. I have heard that it is rather debatable that they'd do that though - I don't think they got a lot of takers for the Elise (early Exige) and of course the option was rather pricey there. My guess is $8K to $10K for the Evora.
If you ask why we didn't wait and buy an Evora S - well, I got an unbelievable deal on a regular Evora and pulled the trigger. I don't have to have the SC - its just a nice to have any my Exige will be my main track car anyway.
On a deadpedal - that was one of the first things I noticed when I sat in a pre-production car. They solved this on the Elise by moving the whole driver side to the right a bit. For right-hand drivers, they of course don't have the problem but I can't imagine a dead pedal would even work as you have to have room for it and there is basically no room.
Right now I'm upgrading the whole Nav/Audio system (well, my installer is).

That's it ? 2KG's
That's interesting because when i got my aftermarket flywheel for the elise it went from 17LB to 7 LB. I thought the Evora S's flywheel will be something similar. Thanks for the info though. I will wait for newport European to get their S next week, so i can go in and see how much different it will be installed.
