Thing have been a little slow with this over the last couple of months as I have been trying to get the Lotus Ready for 15th April for its first track day with the Audi lump in it.

I took my scruffy interior to Dave Haden Trimmers for a bit of a makeover, now I know many of you will hate this but here goes. I think it looks ace but Let me know what you think, good or bad.

Leather and Alcantera.

I did wonder about that which is why I had the red stitching as it ties in with the door cards, I may still do the door cards though, still undecided.

andym 07-04-2013 08:31 PM

As the weather was nice today thought id get rid of six months of crap and gave it a damn good clean.
Done 150 running in miles today.

The Car is now at MSD for mapping
I have gone for Air injectors, ALS LC and closed loop.
I'm hoping to have it back for the weekend as long as all goes well and to say I'm excited is an understatement!!

DazC 30-04-2013 07:05 PM

That looks ace!!

Love the leather on the seats. Nice subtle touch.

BRAMMER 30-04-2013 07:32 PM

It'll Certainly shift, the closed loop is good as you'll see on the journey home

As for door cards they need to be done to match mate

That's one cool looking Dyno Cell!! You will have to show me round when I pick the car up.
How's it going?

Pretty good mate. Air Injectors are on and we have proper control of the GT3071 now - She is comfortably over 400bhp now with plenty to spare, but tonight I have been reconfiguring the base tables after our earlier chat as I feel it could be a bit better mannered low down so have tweaked the breakpoints a little to make it more of a road car map than a race car map and allow much finer fuel calibration off boost if that makes any sense? (in laymans terms, the L8 has 16 fuel load sites from throttle off full vacuum to wide open throttle and 2.x bar boost, you can configure them how you like, IE: 13 off boost 3 on boost, or vice versa, but your stuck with 16 no matter what you do)

Will have to call it a day soon though, the cells pretty soundproof but I am pushing my luck a little at this time of night. LOL

I am very pleased with the cell, you can see a little more of it on this video I did on a car I had in yesterday.


Your welcome to look round it when you pick her up mate. I will do you a video of yours too.
