Congrats! Love Ardent Red!
You should consider getting the Stage 2 exhaust from Lotus. The aftermarket ones are probably cheaper, but I love the sounds! Here is a video of mine doing a few flybys on the track with the Stage 2 pipes. YouTube - Lotus Exige S around Raceway |

They get quite raspy when you remove the cat on the 2zzge/fe engine. Be ware of your lift bolts on that particular engine they do snap quite often. Also check out monkey wrench racing for lots of goodies
Looking forward to mine hopefully next year or sooner if you keep posting pictures! |

What is is with you and running with virtually no petrol in your car! When I picked up Tommy's I ran out by the end of his drive lol
Admittedly it was a long drive but he came and sorted me out! Pull ya finger out Ralston and keep it brimmed!Car is looking mega, especially love the carbon side scoops but you have to get the stage 3 exhaust as it sounds like a super car at full chat. The 111R has the stage 2 and whilst that's ok, it's nothing compared to the noise your MINI made through the London tunnels yesterday mate ![]()
