The supercharged Toyota engine has a nice dollop of torque low down but will still rev past 8000 rpm & the non supercharged on doesn't wake up until at least 4000 rpm.

Elise's never used the Honda designed, high revving VTEC engines... they used the K-Series which was much better low down the rev range & much more stable when tuned for 200+ bhp.

Anyways, Sean? You know that Elise has your name on it!

Lets get a Reef Geek car cruise together when I get one. When you come over in a couple weeks we'll probably spend as much time talking cars as we do corals.

I think you should be a Lotus salesman/person

Thanx

Sean
