Anyone using a Lotus Stage 1 Exhaust?

I know lots of people use Stage 2s its just that I’ve seen a stage 1 for sale cheap and was wondering if it was worth buying. I’d just like to get a bit more burble from the exhaust but nothing too crazy. Do they look the same as std?

I’ve got the Stage 1 on mine. It sounds a bit more interesting than the standard system, but it’s not dramatic. It’s a useful few kilos lighter than the original.

I chose it because I didn’t like the stage 2 on the 111R I test drove; it was very boomy. Plus the stage 1 shouldn’t be too much of a problem on track days.

It looks better than the standard one as it has bigger pipes.

Cheers Brendan, “sounds” just what I’m looking for. Getting rid of the stock twin pea shooters will be a bonus!

My 240R came with a stage one, done loads of track days and never had any noise level issues but it does give a better sound. Would only buy one for upto about �200 otherwise people like 2tubular will make you a better one exactly to you tastes for less!

I’m chasing Mrjonty as we speak, he wants �160 for his so I dont think I can say no for that price.

I us one, sounds great and no prob’s on track days.

Yep, I got one in with the deal when I bought the car, seems to burble more now after 4000miles Louder and better looking than stock yet still ‘sensible’ and passes the Bedford Autodrome driveby noise test nicely
