dyno results

242bhp at 8600rpm 161 lb/ft torque 5800rpm

decatted, sports exhaust, standard air induction 98optimax

AF ratio spot on

Graph shows about 194BHP at the wheels, right? 25% correction to arrive at that 242BHP crank figure seems fairly optimistic, 15-17% would be more typical for a mid-engine rear drive car.

anybody got a totally standard S that wants to put it on the same dyno to get a true bhp increase figure - based at silverstone…i will pay! - (cant be bothered to put the cat back on as its a pain in the arse)

ahhh i recognise the ultra anywhere…i should as i was the inaugral customer - it goes on now and again…

here you go…its the arqray… but it really doesnt do it justice as its a crap video camera. Loud as foook–

just blipping it to 2-3000rpm (imagine at 8000rpm )

The ultra is a smooth sounding loud exhaust and not for the weak, the arqray is a mental mover fookin head banging nutty thing on crack cocaine and then some.

with both the arqray and ultra single tips there is absolutely no drone, lovely crisp sound inside the cabin…with the arqray there is also a lovely crisp sound 5 or 6 miles away from the cabin.

Craig

My car is only due back from bodyshop early next week after an encounter with Mr Magoo of Bicester so Tuesday is a bit optimistic. I’ll confirm when I get it back if that’s OK?

no probs mate, let me know

91

Thought this might be of interest 1 of 2 Cup 240 in Scotland just had a bearing fail on the SC launching the SC - not good I dont think its the first

Also the green 265R all over the news - they claim its an S running a different fuel but it says they have added a 5th injector sounds like a 240 with the timing changed to suite the fuel…

92

Black one or the white one Jamie? Sounds expensive.

93

White one in peaces at MMC

It’s not – Lotus seems to know which ones are bad based upon the serial # of the SC – they should be contacting owners with the defective SC. Apparently the factory received several SC’s with a bad bearing from Eaton. Repairs should be covered by Lotus and charged back to Eaton.

Jamie,

Do you know how many miles were on that white one before the SC went bye bye?

Good to know it’s not a design flaw.

97

Not many the first owner only had it for 2k so max 3k

99
