Lotus parts needed.
*intake manifold
*supercharger inlet(swan neck)
*supercharger outlet
*front motor mount
*blower nose support(alt bracket)
*rear blower support bracket

The stock oil dipstick tube can be modified.
An adapter plate for the crankcase ventilation has to be fabricated.
If the vehicle is already equipped with a Greddy/Tripoint/Katana....a new blower nose piece should be purchased as the Exige nose is about 3/8" longer.

The liquid to air unit we are using is about $700 and the design seems to fit quite well allowing the A/c to be kept in the vehicle. An aftermarket oil cooler will be needed as we utilize the stock front mounted oil coolers as heat exchangers for the intercooler. We opted to use a Mocal Laminova oil to water oil cooler as it quite small and easy to find a place to put it. A coolant resovoir and 1(or 2) pumps need to be added to the intercooler system.
This was just a quick overview....A lot of little things such as oil lines, coolant lines, wiring and other misc things need to be made as well.

Hope this is helpful.

He posted the entire list.
You only need what Casey previously posted.
Also it will be more than $800 probably closer to a $1000+. Casey ended up using the front right engine mount and that sucker is Expensive. The good news is you do not need to order the dipstick that sucker is like $270.. OUCH

You need to remember an oil cooler..150-300 depending on your choice.
You also need a pump 100-250....a coolant tank 100-400...intercooler pipes need to be fabbed...i/c mount fab....oil breather fab...oil lines fabbed...water lines fabbed..couplers 40-70...exige s blower nose piece ?250-300...pulley(exige s offset)..belt...wiring(relay...) quite a few an fittings....I guess all the lettle parts could add up.

The vendor sent us the wrong core so it was sent back.

If you were aiming that at me?.. The car seems to run at the same temps as before..Same temp variations. I don't have an oil temp gauge. Always seems to have power never feels as if there are heat soak issues. I wanted an pre and post I/C temp gauge but Casey was really busy at the time. I neewd to get the car back to him but he is VERY popular..

Hey Perry,
What have your water temps been, any higher than before?
Mark, what size core did you get and why AN ends for the water? I'm using the 182mm w/ 1 1/4" push on ends.

Seems to be no noticeable change in regard to H20 temps. I do live in a pretty temperate region(Berkeley/Fog/low summer temps 70's to low 80's).

It IS a Mocal Laminova coolant to oil cooler. Coolant comes from front mount radiator to intercooler then to Mocal on to the surge tank the circulation pump then back to the front mount radiator.
