See here for the details.

"The car's nose pops up and the car rockets off getting to triple figures in a few short seconds. The claim of 12-second quarter mile times seems realistic, as does high 3 second 0 to 60s."
"Power delivery was smooth, with not perceivable flat spots or hesitation. The turboed engine is capable of smoothly pulling from 2500 rpm right up to redline. As you look at the dyno charts you'll note a slight dip at 6200. The higher lift cam kicks in and briefly starves the engine until the turbo has an opportunity to catch up."

Max HP = 241HP Max Toq = 170lbs/ft

I wish Lotus would have used the Honda engine instead of the Toyota like that aftermarket company that was importing them before Lotus did.

I know I'm a little late to this thread, but I'm trying to earn postwhore status...
