Cheers Rich, I’ve actually bought a second hand 190 to test, so should be able to sort it somehow. Wonder if it will run ok with the advanced inlet timing? Probably!

Yep, will be checking it’s a 190 with the OBD, luckily it looks like a kid has been let loose with a felt tip pen, so decent chance of it being real! 😄

Hi -my ECU may be faulty as I am at loss with an unknown limp mode. Any chance I could borrow yours?

For info, Lotus can’t supply them anymore, and the 3rd party they were using for repair have went into administration due to covid. However, Espirit Engineering can potentially check/fix them, and I believe they may have an Exige ecu in stock too. [email protected] if you’re interested.

I hope the tuner will remember that. I thought I found an emerald but it is a K3 and not a K6. The tuner is telling me that I need a k6 and not a K3. So I am back looking.

Why do you want an Emerald? Are you still concerned your ECU isn't working properly or more for tuning /optimising the running?

Strictly for tuning / optimizing it running.
I don't think stock ECU can be flashed so I am looking for an Emerald.
