All I can say is WOW.
I originally set out to build a crazy 500 horse lotus but had absolutely no idea of how fast it would actually be. Let me tell you that it far exceeded all of my expectations. The car is so fast, suspension is nice and stiff, the tires stick to the ground and it's easy to control. When the turbo is in full spool I swear I feel like I can fly. It honestly sounds like I'm I'm a jet plane lol. I had it tuned by Shaun church in long beach the next day I drove it back home to Vegas. I actually got over 35 mpg to! Once I got it home I tore it back down pressure cleaned every part ran all new vacuum hoses and coolant lines for the turbo, changed all the o rings for fuel, air, and both gaskets one manifold one header just because the car motor had so much work done over the last 9 months it was due time. Last night I finished it up and took it out for an evening drive. Flawless. I can not wait for the motor to be broken in so I can really put the power down. Ill take some nice pictures and maybe try to get some good video here soon, ill let you guys know if I have any problems or anything to. Sent from AutoGuide.com Free App |

Quick update.....
Earlier today I ran into a group of Ferraris and one brave 430 wanted to run and he's probably on the forum right now looking for a lotus cause I took him by over 8 car lengths! And I'm still only shifting at 6k!!!!! After the race all the Ferrari guys had there eyes straight on the road not one if them even looked me in the eyes Hahaha Thursday I'm opening up the revs and well see what happens at 8500 ![]() Sent from AutoGuide.com Free App |
