WORLD’S FASTEST Lotus Elise K20 Turbo
After going to the track for the 1st time last Wednesday 3/25/2015 and running the car on 93 octane @ 15psi rolling out off the line to a surprising 10.3 @ 139 mph. I decided to take it back on Race Fuel @ 25 psi and this is what happened… Still rolling out off the line, NO 2 step & Nitto Street tires…
What will it run at 35psi???

Re: WORLD’S FASTEST Lotus Elise K20 Turbo
A friend of mine bought a S2 Exige with a basic pistons & rods K20A swap and GT35R turbo. Car made 500whp (Dynapck) on 14 psi on our very poor 95RON pump fuel running a Motec M400 ecu and really moved well !
We had a plan of upgrading it to compete in 1000m standing start sprints but he chose to focus on his HKS GT1000 R35 and 1st gen turbocharged Lotus Exige instead.
This makes me wonder how that would of turned out if we went the built motor, 6766 route...
Good Job

Re: WORLD’S FASTEST Lotus Elise K20 Turbo
After those 2 passes, the track management told me I couldn't run anymore without Parachute or Roll Cage. So we couldn't make another pass.
Those passes were @ 25psi. We can still go up about 10psi more.
The changes between both passes were:
-Changed spark plugs
-Raised the Rev Limiter because it hit the limiter before the finish line
-Launch a little harder
We are doing the parachute to make it to the Street Car Take Over event in Orlando May 1st & 2nd. We are VERY confident the car will run 8's @ 160+mph
Stay tuned for updates.

I don't get jealous much looking at most of the stuff on this board, but I am actually jealous that I do not own this machine.
Very cool build. Look forward to seeing what you guys push this thing to do. And I guarantee this thing is a blast to drive.

Re: WORLD’S FASTEST Lotus Elise K20 Turbo
Realy cool build.. This is the exact build I got going on in my head and will be my next bigger project for me here in Sweden if time and ecomony is there..
I was thinking about the exige and a smaller turbo and maybe a k24 though.. More road race oriented. Exige costs a little more than the elise but I think they have more room for rear tiers etc..
Do you use the car with the quife gearbox on the street? For like everyday usage? How do you like it?
Do you know if there are any peticular elise/exige model that is a better platform to build on? Is there anything in the build you would do differantely? Model, year,? etc
Congrats on the greate times!..

Re: WORLD’S FASTEST Lotus Elise K20 Turbo
That is some great stuff. Awesome. 62mm rwd. What are you gonna do when you do the chute? Just redo exhaust and dump to go out the bottom? I was wondering that when I saw how quick and fast the car was. Seems like a little to think about even if the exhaust and dump go out towards the bottom. I would be worried about melting the chute or chord. I know it would be on decel, but still could be a little hairy.
