Forged Performance: Sector 111 Lotus Exige Project

Tray@Forged · 12-01-2010, 06:55 PM

Many of you may be familiar with Forged Performance, from our many years of experience with Nissan's, Subaru's, Mitsubishi's, Porsches and a few other lines of high performance vehicles. Based in the Atlanta area, our specialty is track oriented vehicles that not only make big power, but can be enjoyed on various road courses throughout the country. On average, we spend 4 days a MONTH on track, putting our builds to the test and meeting a lot of really neat people in the process.

We see a whole lot of Lotus guys at the track and wanted to share with you a recent project we are working on. At Forged Performance we do a lot of different race projects and always love getting to play with the Exige. One of our customers just purchased his Lotus Exige and felt he could use a little bit more power. Right away I knew that Sector 111 were best in class. They were very helpful and shipped out the parts promptly. Once we received the Katana 2 kit we unboxed the component for inventory and inspection. We are one of the only tuner shops in the country that is home to a genuine Lotus certified technician on staff. Take a quick peak of some of the project thus far.

Right now, we're waiting on the ECU to come back so we can get her on the dyno!

I have a friend with an Elise looking to supercharge his car. What is the expected hp gain with the kit from stock?

Also do they make anything for the Elise?

I nearly got an Elise over my 370. This thread is going to kill me.

Chris,

The Katana 2 kit is a mild upgrade keeping cats etc. Probably about 40-60 hp increase. This kit works with Elise / Exige. Not bad for $4000.

I looked at getting one too.. but extracting power from the engine in theses cars seems hard to do.. and the power curve of the motor is all over the place.
the only way to do it right is a K20 swap with F.I.

As a former Honda man I have to agree. The K20 would have been so beautiful in this car.
