I take it you have a 4G? what engine H22a2 or H22a?

ATR cams
PUK/LG P13 ECU chip or stand alone ECU


What have you done to suspension and brakes? I ask as there is faster in a straight line or faster in the twisties ;) There is more to improve on the Lude suspension/brake wise than on the engine IMO.

Im sure from the times you posted at santa pod recently your car is running spot on - id look at lightening things up for quick results - aircon removal,spare tye out,lightened flywheel,lightweight alloy wheels etc

cheers for the replys guys. its gets oil and filter changed every few months. its dues some plugs and. will probably be doing the fuel filter and maybe leads and distributor cap and rotor arm aswell. yeah its a h22a. its got koni adjustable shocks and front and rear strut braces. brakes are stock at the moment as in not to sure what set i want. ive already lightened it abit although there is more that i can remove. do lightened flywheels make much difference. cheers jon

cheapest way to silly power is nos, beats any mod in terms of power per £. a bit of a hassle filling bottles , cheap to install though . the next cheaper route is loose weight, but ludes are lighter than most to start with, but 50-100kg is easly shed. if you fill your tank with say £60 of fuel it makes a noticable difference (£60 fuel is only around 42kg but is noticable, this will give you an idea of what kind of differene weight reduction can make). lotus were onto something :D
but if price isnt an issue then how much more do you want ;) i have never used a lightend flywheel, but i did lighted crank shafts on race preped bike engines, they do have drawbacks but the gains are worth the trouble. :twisted:
