    Hey Group, I recently purchased an FF 275 kit for my ‘05 Elise 2zz. The harness is chopped up pretty bad and needing repair. I thought finding install instructions and diagrams online would be possible but it’s turned out not so much. I know not many of these kits were produced but is it...

  13. Lotus Elise
    Hey guys! I just finished installing a Forcefed 275 on my 05 Elise (got it at a good price from WireWheel). The main issue I am having is due to the idle. The car idles at 2800rpm. I believe this is due to the fact that the EFI ECU is probably off of a newer lotus with a drive by wire system. I...
