Elise SC RGB T

[Boggy]

Haven't posted on PH for a while but often dip in to see what's been going on, I recently purchased a 2010 Elise SC from Silverlink cars of Newcastle good guys very professional. This Elise is the best all round sports car I've ever owned it doe's everything and I mean everything so very well, now while it's not as powerful or as quick as the new Exige S it really is all the sports car you'll ever need I've driven it on Motorways, A roads, B road's and then it still has enough left over to thrill you on the track, it's superb I even used it in the Snow without any drama's I've just had a stage 1 exhaust fitted along with TRD induction to give it a little more noise why did I ever sell my last One. The 2 11 was out of this world quick but this just does everything so well I'll post pictures soon

Glad for you, what's the stage 1 exhaust and TRD induction done for you apart from extra db? any better?

[Boggy]

Yes is the short answer, engine seems to be able breathe better and definitely rev's easier Castle Lotus assured me I'd get gains of around 2-5 bhp so it's probably now at 222 - 225bhp

sounds good Boggy, and after a while when you think or itching to a bit more power you can always upgrade those cars to 260<>280 or so.

Sounds good! I've driven a lot of different Elises and the SC is definitely one of the best there is. Fantastic cars

Can you? I was under the impression there isn't a great deal you can do with the Elise SC owing to the type of supercharger fitted?

with the original supercharger your indeed a bit limited, but even with that, you can get around 240<>250hp out of it with some upgrades, see for example here>>

To provide the Elise SC with more power and torque we have developed the powerphase Elise SC240. Its basis is the Elise SC 220hp. This is complemented by our Komo-Tec stainless steel exhaust manifold a sports cat, a Carbon airbox and a modified ECU mapping.

A notable increase of power to approx. 240-250hp is the result of These modifications. Torque lies with approx. 220Nm around 15Nm above standard.
See a power diagram for the Elise SC240 attached.

Consists of

modified software on standard ECU
