Holes may be for O2 sensors?

Actually, I noticed this too at the flange with the GRP version before installation. It really wasn’t bad, only about a 1/32”-1/16” step on the ID and less than halfway around the inside circumference. I’d argue very few people would have ever noticed this or cared but the perfectionist in me...

I’d be most interested in a tune that simply and safely increases the fuel shutoff rpm to 7000-7200 RPM. If a slight bump in HP comes along with it, then great! The increase in RPMs will make the spirited driving experience much more enjoyable.

Thanks for posting! What Nitron part numbers? And do you know how the Nitrons would compare to an Öhlins street & track offering?

Supply and demand… With seasonal fluctuations with demand and more supply hitting the market will likely lead to decreased prices, but I don’t see prices dropping to the upper 60s here in the US in the near term. No matter where prices end up in the next few months this is only a concern if...

Yes, I recently drove the 2025 M2 on track at the bmw performance center and was seriously impressed with just how good it was. Great power and puts it down surprisingly well even in cold, damp conditions. Even more surprising was the front end grip. Together and combined with good body control...

Other cars I’ve considered … 1) 2019 911 T 2) 2025 M2 3) 2020-24 Boxster Spyder 4) 2014-15 R8 V8 — All are great cars but the Emira is the best overall for me at this point in time. For 1) Hard to find the low mileage spec car I’d want for a reasonable price, not to mention possible...

The place is called Eclipse in Lewis Center Ohio. They agreed to not charge me for the removal but no refund. I lost $500 for the job which did sting!

I had it and couldn’t deal with the distortion* and halos around car headlights at night so I had it removed. Didn’t experience driving in the rain so can’t comment on that. I’m not OCD FWIW, it was just that bad (maybe poor installation?). *it was like fog or a thin film of Vaseline on the...

This was on my list (top 3). Good one.

As an update, adjusted tire pressures. Can’t say it made an huge difference. However driving it more seems that only low speeds it is somewhat bouncy but at speed (>35-40 mph) seems right/taut/controlled. So all good there. I’m now at 750 miles… getting more familiar with the Emira and liking...

Last ICE Lotus…
