LOTUS ELISE S2 Turbocharge 1 ZZ-FE | ROAD TEST | How much more improvement compared to stock?

[@MarzNet256]

The 1ZZ-FE engine revs up so fast, it's incredible. It's also super durable.

Thanks so much for the upload. We have a 1zz in the shop for a rebuild and after a long disagreement with my brain I think it needs a turbo. I liked the granny cheap to run Elise but maybe its time to make it a bit more aggressive since been relegated to the Sunday drive. We may even make it a bit more track car. Such a great daily driver but maybe a bit wasted in the standard form.

Nice video Raymond, Jeremy here. Can u show us the engine bay and the turbo set up/piping on the elise

[@lotuswithraymondcartalk481]

will do

[@leebaldwin677]

How long did it live for ant videos showing engine bay What's the cost?

[@BlatentlyFakeName]

Did they install forged rods? Apparently the stock ones aren't really strong enough for a turbo.

[@lotuswithraymondcartalk481]

So far, the stock held up well as it is running on low boost. Currently running on 0.5 bar as standard and Julian has tested with 1.0 bar at the recent track day.

Hi Raymond, great video! Will this kit be available for the 1ZR S3? Many thanks.

[@lotuswithraymondcartalk481]

I guess not Ivan. It was for the 1 zz fe. Anyway, the super charged S3 is well balance and nice to drive. Why do you want to twin charge it. 😀

@@lotuswithraymondcartalk481 The 1ZR is a NA 1.6L engine. There's no charging of anything going on in there. :)

[@lotuswithraymondcartalk481]

Oh ya. sorry Ivan. I stand corrected.

[@trackdayfunday]

@@lotuswithraymondcartalk481 No problem! The video inspired me to look for a 1ZR solution. Thanks and looking forward to more material!

Will this work On the 1zz mr2 spyder?

[@lotuswithraymondcartalk481]

Very similar and you'll find more video content on KZbin for mrs and mr2.

@@lotuswithraymondcartalk481 thanks! I’ve seen plenty, always looking for different ideas for the 1zz. Just interested in his turbo set up and charge cooling plumbing :)
