For high
engine power outputs and/or regular track usage, it is recommended to install
robust studs instead of the original cylinder head bolts. These ensure reliable
durability even under the highest loads and do not need to be replaced during
revisions (unlike OEM bolts). For continuous track or trackday operation with
2GR-FE engines producing over 450 PS, highly durable ARP studs should be
installed.
Benefits:Reusable
indefinitely (unlike the originally installed cylinder head bolts, which must
be replaced each time the cylinder head is removed)Reliable
even under very high power outputs

KT-7 Speed Sequential Manual Transmission (7-speed)
Lotus uses either a manual 6-speed manual transmission, or a torque converter automation in the IPS-Spec of the Lotus Exige.
In the case of ambitious driving, a major disadvantage of a classic gearbox is the shifting process per se, the needed shift-time, including missing torque and in addition, the resulting possibility of faulty operation.
The torque converter has the disadvantage of less efficiency and thus friction losses, slow shifting times and it is very heavy-weight.
The Komo-Tec 7-speed sequential gearbox is what will separate your Lotus from the rest of the pack! The gearbox was developed following a strong demand from Lotus-drivers needing to gain the additional performance that factory part cannot deliver. The non-synchronized, straight gearing is for a gearbox of this design surprisingly low noise while normal driving.
The main advantages are obvious:
faster acceleration,higher strength (rated up to 900 Nm)lightweight (only 58.5 kg)quicker shifts (flatshifting of gears as little as 40 milliseconds)a range of optional ratios (5 different options are available for Max-Speed: 274, 212, 252, 231, 297 km/h)Another advantage is:
The transmission is specially designed for the Lotus Exige V6 and Evora and therefore has the advantage that the original driveshafts, couplings and brackets can be adopted without any modifications (on the engine side). The installation is therefore faster and cheaper
than with other sequential gearboxes that has been developed as universal transmissions. Universal oil coolers and / or an oil temperature sensor can also be added as an option (surcharge).
Unique to this type of transmission is an externally adjustable differential nut. The maximum adjustment is 13kg and it is possible to customize the ramp angle of the differential lock to customer requirements. The standard ramp angles are 53/0 and 40/0.
Depending on customer requirements, we can provide a very short close ratio gearbox for you or you are chasing the 300 km/h. So there is an option for everyone that is right.
Kit includes:
Sequential gearbox 7 speed with dog engagementLimited slip differential (externally adjustable)Gears 1st-7th and final driveInput and Ouput shaftsSelection of 5 different gear ratiosDigital gear display and sensorGear shift levers and cableselectronic control unit for switching interruptionadjustable shifting optionRevisioninterval when using racetrack: ca 5000 km.
It is very helpful to use the sequential Gearbox in conjunction with our Alloy Flywheel and Sinter-Metall Clutch:

Ko-Bra Race ABS / ESP Motorsport and safety feature at the same time: Our newly developed Ko-Bra Race ABS and ESP! The 1st available motorsport ABS / ESP on the market especially developed for the Exige with KoBra 4-4 Brakesystem has and extensively tested. Our many years of experience in motorsport, the knowledge of the Exige Range itself and the feedback from our customers have made it possible for us to work and point out the essential points for development and optimization. The result is a plug'n'play solution that is just as suitable for everyday sporting use as it is for ambitious use on the track! The existing Lotus-DPM functions of the driving modes (Tour, Sport, Race and OFF) could be integrated and expanded. So if you make the effort to use the system right, you will definitely be faster and safer!
ABS: In the future, the limiting factor for you will (almost) be the choice of tires only! Typical racing deceleration forces of over 2g are possible now! Even when braking deep into the curve, the typical understeering of the standard brake is eliminated and enables precise steering through an optimal ratio between the maximum possible braking and lateral force control. The so-called ice mode (“hard brake pedal”) is prevented.
ESP: An ESP works through selective brake intervention and regulation of the engine torque. The lower torque in particular causes a considerable interruption in power. Thanks to our adapted regulation, you control the torque by the accelerator pedal only. The control allows higher drift angles and also power slides. Twists are still effectively prevented and corrected more gently. It is still possible to switch off the ESP completely - but it is no longer necessary for a hot lap time as overcompensating brake interventions no longer take place.
EDS: The electronic limited slip differential is no longer activated in our software to relieve the brake on the rear axle and protect it from overheating. However, we recommend a mechanical differential.
TC: The traction control is also no longer activated in our software in order to achieve better traction and full access to the engine torque.
Variable Settings: A previously unavailable option is added. You can use variable settings via the Lotus Mode selection-button. These can be adapted to the typical tire constellations (road / rain, semi-slick, slick), see pictures.
Data recording: All variables relevant to driving dynamics are made available via CAN bus and can be recorded via CAN logger (not included in the offer).
Our System be used for: Exige S V6, Cup V6, Sport 350, Cup 360, Sport 380, Cup 380, Sport 410, Cup 430
LOTUS CUP APPROVED: From Season 2021 onwards our ABS is also tested and approved for Lotus CUP Series!
Additional Information for 3-Eleven:
By adding another button (see last picture) and reprogramming the software, the 3-Eleven gets also the opportunity to have a working ESP!

ECUmaster EMU Pro16 ECU for all Exige V6 and EvoraKomo-Tec offers you the optimal upgrade for your performance-enhanced Lotus Exige V6/Evora: individual tuning, more power, more torque and a significantly better response behavior with maximum suitability for everyday use.The new engine control unit from ECUmaster, the EMU Pro16 ECU, has specifications at the absolute top level and clearly surpasses the functions of the proven ECU "EMU Black". Many features and fully programmable, the new ECU is a class-leading, standalone engine management system designed to operate the most advanced and complex engines on the market.The EMU Pro16 ECU controls the fuel supply, the ignition angle, all engine-related parameters and also all other auxiliary systems such as the electronic throttle valve, the variable camshaft adjustment, variable fuel and water pump of the Exige 410/430 models, the Lotus-specific air conditioning control, as well as traction and DPM stability control programs, communication with the ABS/ESP system of the Lotus models is fully retained (an individual firmware version from Komo-Tec enables this function) and full OBD functionality is guaranteed. So all the functions of your Lotus are preserved.In contrast to the previously used Emu Black, the EMU Pro16 can control all 4 camshafts and works with two broadband lambda sensors. This guarantees a perfect mixture preparation and allows a clear optimization of the tuning as well as the reduction of the combustion temperatures and thus the knocking tendency through the control of the exhaust camshafts.For use with Lotus Exige V6 and Evora models, an adapter to the standard wiring harness is required, which we supply.The control unit can communicate with two CANBUS as well as with all external CAN protocol devices including ABS and display systems and thus enables the perfect integration of external systems. The solid construction meets IP65 housing standards, so that the ECU can also be used in the Lotus and under difficult operating conditions.The integrated data logging offers extensive diagnostic and optimization functions. The comprehensive and feature-rich software allows full control of the ECU and configuration of a variety of engine functions. With the skills and experience of Komo-Tec, we can therefore programm you an individual setup on our dyno and adjust various components. Functions such as "double-declutching" can also be programmed during the shifting process (manual transmission).The use of a "paddleshift" system in connection with sequential transmission is possible as a stand-alone system, the use of a GCU (gearbox control unit) is therefore no longer necessary.This ECU has also been successfully introduced in the Lotus Cup Europe and has been mandatory in endurance tests since 2022 and as a basic device for all Exige Cups since 2023. The experience that we were able to collect during the development of our racing vehicles was a milestone for the further developments of our road and track conversions, such as our EX500+ kits.Advantages:
latest chip generation 2023
automatic injection control through innovative "short and longtime closed loop" system
retaining the standard cruise control
retention of all functions of the standard display including all icons

Komo-Tec KoBra-4-4 sports braking system Exige Mk3 V6 "floated"
(Front and rear axle, 343/343 mm)
Now our KoBra-4-4 Brake-System is also available with floating discs for the Lotus Exige S V6. We use a 343x32 mm Brakedisc (floating) with alloy-pods front and rear of the high-quality manufacturer PFC (Performance Friction Brakes). At the rear alloy-pods, the handbrake is also covered. The alloy-pod in combination with the screwed-on and floated-beared Brakedisc reduces the weight significantly still if the disc diameter is 11mm bigger (to the factory spec). Our alloy-pods are made of high quality F52 aluminum. By using the two-piece brake disc, a larger disc diameter can be fitted and thus results in a lower fading tendency and a better temperature behavior. The Lotus/AP Brakecaliper is still used and distanced with an adaptor. When replacing the Brakedisc later on, the alloy pod can be used further and only the rotor itself must be changed. Another big advantage against the standard Brake-System: this kit can use identical brake pads and rotors at the front and rear.
Advantages of "Floated Discs": The new rotors have a smaller friction surface (than KoBra4-4 before), so that we can generate advanced braking power and at the same time better heat dissipation, while using optimized brake pads. Due to the resulting lower rotor temperature, the material-expansion and thus also the imbalance are lower. This (imbalance and temperature) minimizes the transfer of temperatur on the brake pot, ensures less forces in the overall Brake-System and thus also protects the wheel bearings from increased wear. In addition, the floated-rotor (compared to the standard disc) despite 11mm larger diameter and still is lighter. The slotts/grooves are used for better cooling, the removal of the brake dust and at the same time as a wear indicator. In contrast to the floating discs used by Lotus in the early Cup models, PFC works with a preloaded metal ring to get the otherwise rattling discs almost noiseless.
Weight comparison:- front axle:Ko-Bra disc "floated" 343mm - 7,4 kgStandard disc (one-piece) 332mm - 8.3 kg- rear axle:Ko-Bra disc "floated" 343mm - 7.9 kgStandard disc (one-piece) 332mm - 8.6 kgTotal weight advantage: 3.2 kg (despite 11mm larger disc diameter!)
Dimensioning:Ko-Bra brake discs (all around): 343x32 mmStandard discs front: 332x32 mmStandard discs rear: 332x26 mm
The KoBra 4-4 brake system consists of:• 4x grooved brake discs 343x32 mm• floated-screwed alloy-pods• PFC sports brake pads front / rear• Mounting and adapter kit
Suitable for:Exige S Mk3 V6, Exige Sport 350, 380, 410, 430 and 3-Eleven
PFC Brakes: PFC is the official brake supplier of Porsche Motorsport, as well as Radical and the Nascar / Stockcar Series. Years of experience in motorsport, but also the developments for motorcycles and e.g. Truck Custom Uses bring this brake manufacturer to the Benchmark in the field of custom solutions and for special applications. For Lotus we have had very good experience with PFC in our KoBra kit brake systems, too. In terms of braking power, weight and wear this high level Quality cannot be compared to the lower price-segment that is sometimes offered through the web. After all, everyone knows whoever brakes later drives faster for longer!
A german TÜV-Approval by individual acceptance (§19.2) is possible inhouse.

Years of experience in motorsport, but also the developments for motorcycles and e.g. Truck Custom Uses bring this brake manufacturer to the Benchmark in the field of custom solutions and for special applications. For Lotus we have had very good experience with PFC in our KoBra kit brake systems, too.
