RussIt’s probably best waiting until Lotus release the updated ECU, which should cure the flamin’ 5500rpm misfire. This should be available shortly!!!In the meantime, you could fit the Supersports exhaust & de-cat pipe, which should help the engine more freely & give a few more bhp. You may want to compare the prices of both the above Lotus items, with those supplied by Geary at http://www.eliseparts.com I presume that you have the braided hoses, fluid,(& ideally pads) changes in hand? These are probably the first upgrades you need when going on track - particularly with your circuit experience [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/wink.gif[/image]

I elected to avoid the de-cat until after the first service, as B&C advised against it on the grounds of possible warranty invalidation! I’ll check WH are happy with any proposed mods before signing up with them.The Moto-build silenced de-cat is only �60 (+VAT & P&P) and is still S/Steel.Ian [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/smile.gif[/image]ps. Pesky, I’ve got my hands on some quick shift fitting instuctions and may try the switch to 33%. Looks like a bit of a faff so will wait until I have a spare afternoon.
