@@LeDechaine Yeah for the price of a brand new car or serious ringtool it should work very well. But it seems to react slow to inputs and sometimes doesn't react at all.

Well, I didn't want to say too much, but since others in the comment section seem to have realized it as well: this car's suspension and/or suspension setup is crap, and outright dangerous. If you have (warm) Semis on, lots of aero, aren't even doing that high a speed over the bump (even my 190hp Corrado hit 220 km/h there), if the car gets unstable that's just a sign that something is very wrong.

I am a v6 cup owner but have to say, this was absolutely terrible. First of all the car was all over the place, not confidence inspiring - perhaps too stiff for the ring? or geo totally off? Then the DCT - if i paid 25k to get this, id slap it back at komotec's face. Ratios and mapping completely all over - you can see misha struggling and the guy has driven 100s of cars with auto boxes.

[@sangerzonnvolt6712]

I don't understand how its 25k. The parts cost would be about 1/3rd that, and it's not as if KomoTec have added any extra special sauce (if anything, the opposite).

Dude was wheeling that M3. Love when Misha gets paired up with a similar speed car after carousel on these laps.

[@TranceFur]

This gives me the impression that Komo-Tec just slapped parts on an Exige without properly tuning any of them. Even down to the digital gauge cluster. It should not be configured to obscure the entire screen with a warning when the coolant temp is only 100°C…

[@davegarthwaite7493]

WOW....with the greatest of respect, your comments could not be further from reality. We installed the Komo-Tec IDS gear box into our Exige 430 Cup two years ago, and at the same time added the KT piston and Rods resulting in 500HP and 530 nm. The install is like a factory install on my car, the engine mapping and gear box mapping where great from the get go, they clearly had a lot of development and i mean a lot!!l. We also had that same AIM cluster and the Coding by KT was very very good. But like all AIM products they can very very easily be updated by the End user, There is a high possibility that the cluster has been updated since install. Regarding gear ratio's we think they are truly great, on circuit they are an absolute peach. When we first installed the kit we did some performance testing and recorded a 0-100km time of 2.94 seconds. Komo-Tec are a very very well respected tuner in Lotus circle and the development is certainly there, The video's Ive seen do NOT do the conversions Justice

Normally Öhlins are known for a good compromise between handling and compliance. This car is the exact opposite.

[@StartYourEngine]

@@stoneeh If I recall correctly, Exige 360 Cup could be ordered with optionnal Öhlins TTX. So I assume this 360 got the TTX which are fantastics if tweaked right. The whole setup of the car, from tires, dampers, swaybars to alignment seems good for safe spirited driving on the road at best. But too soft and understeery for track duty with Misha onboard. Really looks like a scary drive... On a previous video with an Exige 380 Sport, someone commented he would lend his sorted out 420 Final Edition. Don't know if that will ever happened... Hope Misha will finally drive a razorsharp Exige V6 😁

[@stoneeh]

@@StartYourEngine seems to me the suspension is probably totally screwed down, which is indicated by it being unable to take the Caroussel, and is just the #1 newbie mistake - "lower is always better". This removes all the suspension travel, which is what the suspension needs to work. Maybe compression vs. rebound is also off.

This is probably an EXIGE 360 with the standard setup and the standard Öhlins from the factory. Komotec certainly made the engine and gearbox, but the setup is probably not made for the Nordschleife (by Komotec) I drove the DCT gearbox this year at Spa. It's wonderful to drive, does exactly what it's supposed to do, and very quick. The best upgrade you can give an EX 460, if you like the paddle shift. If you prefer manual, then stick with manual. That's also what Misha says: he didn't like the 992 GT3 with PDK either, he likes it pure. So: everyone as they like it!

The acceleration doesnt seem as brutal as i was expecting for nearly 500bhp in 1100kg

[@marvinvisser5039]

Not at all indeed. Does only 250kmh into Schwedenkreuz. And seeing the wobble it it’s not so much because of downforce. This is closer to 350hp

[@StartYourEngine]

@@ronjatter A supercharger required about 10% of the output power (and torque) to function. If you want to have a better idea of the power, remove 46 from 460 (so 414) to get an equivalent of the power at the crank if the engine was a naturally aspirated one. Weight is closer to 1200 kg than 1100. The Cx of the car isn't really efficient from factory. Even worse with those aero mods. So for a 1200 kg and 416 HP car with two big boys in it, speed and acceleration are coherents.

[@DaEVOthefreak]

@@StartYourEngine thats BS! The Power measurment is the real one! So you have to put 46 + 460= 510 (without the supercharger-crank stealing Power) ! So the Engine with a Supercharger is stressed with that amount of HP more, than the output on the meassurement or dyno! Nevertheless, a Exige puts mostly less HP, caused by high temperatures, or other things, or just the numbers are wrong. It exist many Exige Vids, where you can see, that the car isn't capable enough out of the box, or without an amount of Setup- and stuff input.

[@StartYourEngine]

@@DaEVOthefreak The power announced by Komotec for EX460 kit is about 460 HP at the crank. Not at the wheels. In that second case, you are right, you will have to add the power loss from the crank to the wheels due to the transmission and the supercharger. During a dyno run, power is measured at the wheels during acceleration. Then, the dyno measured how much braking power is generated at the wheels by the gearbox+transmission+supercharger while decelerating. Then you have to add this power value to the power at the wheels in order to get the crank power result. Hope that helps.

[@DaEVOthefreak]

@@StartYourEngine Im European, of course im talking about Engine HP 😉 There was no comment about RealWheel-HP. If Komotec anounced the Power at crank, thats include the minus from the Charger!

[@stratman9449]

the section where Misha "closed the door" used to be where you started your lap in the (not too distant ) past....

[@aaryeshg.6526]

Doesn't seem fast but maybe it's the gap in gear ratios. The DCT shifts gears quick as usual but the response to the paddle shift is random, sometimes slow, other times fast. The double downshifts on braking are slow too.... The suspension setup is a bit soft for high speed stability and ride height too low for carrousel. The gauge cluster layout is awkward, rev counter is too big for the redline of the engine. And temp warning occupying the whole screen. This car could be better with change of gear ratios and better tune for suspension. It needs closer gear ratios which Lotus typically put in manual transmissions and change the final drive also. The engine itself is alright.

[@RSnowin]

The Fiat reached 190 on the speedo, while the Lotus hit 214 at the start. At Schwedenkreuz it was a bit under 240 vs 249 in the Lotus, which is possibly due to an inaccurate speedo (Fiat). 250 at Schwedenkreuz is not too bad for a tame run in TF with 460 hp and bad aero.

[@rogerpayne5336]

@@rogerpayne5336 So exactly as I said - under 240 kph at Schwedenkreuz. 90s Fiat speedos are notorious for being somewhat optimistic by the way. So in the end, it works out with the difference between them as the Fiat was in very good condition and is more aerodynamic

the suspension and geometry are either not set up for such a bumpy high speed track or are not set-up properly at all. The Elise platform is not inheritably unstable at high speed. For the NS, you need plenty suspension travel and not too much compression damping. Without insights into the geo and how it was set-up in regards to wing and splitter, it will be hard to tell.

Misha lacking confidence big time in this. No doubt still a whole heap of fun for the average driver but it now seems to have lost its quintessential lotus qualities aside from low mass.

[@DaEVOthefreak]

no, thats exactly like the "lotus track quality" is. The car is a nightmare to set up. You have to know what you do and you have to put a lot of time in Aero and Alignment, Tyresize, Tyrecompound, presure, shock settings. The car had a very inefficient Aero from factory, is underpowered and hard to drive. If you want a task, buy a Exige an try to make it fast ;-) But if you achiev this, you are an expert and have a lot of fun!

[@papapetad]

@@DaEVOthefreak I'm merely going by the countless Elise reviews on this assessment. Drivers seemed to find them easy to drive, chuckable, well behaved etc... I seem to remember Exige reviews to be positive also albeit edgier with the added power. I don't remember any reviews pointing to glaring inherent flaws so I did not expect this one to hold Misha back so much. I have no doubt tuning them is challenging. While far from an expert, I'd expect any car to be challenging to setup correctly. The added challenge from this platform I would attribute to low mass, mid engine layout (in this case a big V6 which is probably even tougher to compensate for compared to the i4) and short wheel base. Obviously, front to rear aero balance is particularly sensitive on such a platform but then I would have thought anyone pouring big resources in one would consult with experienced shops and the community to avoid major f ups. Then again, this sort of feedback gives the owner an opportunity to do more work on setup which is always fun and likely much less costly than the dct swap.

[@DaEVOthefreak]

@@papapetad well, the tuner of this here is the world leading in Exige's! Look at the SportAuto ExigeS Round with Gebhard 11 years ago. A few years ago i was faced with the decision to buy an exige, i test drove a few. On the road it gives you a great, fast, exciting feeling, but is effectively no faster than others.

Watching the ad is to much of my time given. Time is the only commodity we have. Money and people come and go.

Like another commentor said, for a Lotus it seems very poor in cornering speed.

[@phantom2k10]

25k for a f'in dct????????? adonbelivit

[@DaEVOthefreak]

you have to pay for the developementprocess.

[@dundukas6]

There's a bit of work to mate it to the 2GR-FE. I would expect at least 20k without knowing the real price.

[@onepunchmicky666]

It’s a more unique car so that bumps up the price, I want to put a zf8hp in my Falcon and iv spoke to someone who’s done it and it was 17k by the end of it including other parts to make it fit like aftermarket driveshaft, so gearbox swaps can be expensive 😬

[@vanqy.]

theres nothing off the shelf that you can fit into this mid engined rear drive car. so good luck with less than 25k. also a 3,5L with a supercharger takes up a significant space of the engine bay just to give you a rough idea of fitment

Der Hauptfehler ist die Bereifung! An der Hinterachse 265er und an der Vorderachse lächerliche 205er. Ich fahre auf meinem Opel Speedster Turbo 215/235. Damit ist - neben einer gescheiten Einstellung des Fahrwerks - das Untersteuern weg. Diese Exige S hat das Potenzial für mehr, viel mehr.

[@TheJohn8765]

Yah, the 205s is 10 less than my bone stock work-car Mazda3. Like, what?? Why put such a tiny tire on something with 40% more horsepower than stock (plus other mods, I assume). Very odd choice.

That car needs more sound.... Straight pipes 👌
