Is my V6 down on power?

[Harald32]

Georg, which fuel did you take? Always min 98 Octan or sometimes 95 Octan?

I am shure that the test with 277 PS was  correct because the company who test the car also work on Mc Laren, Audi R8 or Nissan GTR. So the know what to do.

That's not a logical conclusion George. I have an Android phone and take it to a guy who knows Iphones because hey, they are all just phones aren't they!

If you take it to this dyno company without dealer intervention, then why not Komo Tec as they are THE most experienced with these cars in Europe, outside of Europe and probably better with regards to performance than most dealers?

If Komo Tec see's a problem then that will give you good ammunition to take to your dealer and then to Lotus if needed.

I ask Komo but I have to go by the first time to my dealer in Wuppertal.

I have next week a visit at my dealer to have some tests and they will send the results to Hethel.

With respect, just because they can dyne those other cars, doesn't mean it's correct for the Exige.

I stand by my advice to go to Komo-Tec.  They're known to be reliable, and can tell you if your Exige is running correctly or not.

Do you think it´s so different to test the power of a Exe than the power of another car?

End if this week I will bring the car to Wuppertal to have some tests.

Best wishes

Yes, because of the traction control systems.

[georg964]

The front wheels were also in traction so no problem.

So, today, everything is ok.

I go to KT with the problem and they measure the same.

Komotech have identified two rockers that have become dislodged within the valvetrain on my engine. This can occur if the engine is allowed to over-speed by selection of too low a gear from too high an engine speed.

Looking back at the performance data recently sent to Lotus by MAS Style, they can see that there have been a number of engine over-speeding events over the life of the vehicle that may have caused this issue, quite possibly before I owned it. Komo-tech refit now the dislodged rockers and reassemble the engine.

The last test show now 350 PS .

Best wishes Georg

Good to know that Komo-tec have come to the rescue. They really are the best out there 😎

Agree 100% can't beat going direct to Komotec! Awesome guys in Mendig 👍
