| Video Discription | Simply Sports Cars has developed a Lotus Supercharger upgrade for the Lotus Exige which replaces the factory fitted TVS1320 with a TVS1900. https://www.simplysportscars.com/can-you-upgrade-the-supercharger-on-a-elise-or-exige/ The factory fitted TVS 1320 supercharger is on the limit of it's operating efficiency window on the V6 Exige. On a 25.7 deg ambient air temperature day we logged the intake air temperatures and pressures of a stock V6 and found the intake air temperatures regularly hit over 90 degrees Celsius and peaked at 97deg within 2 laps. Without any provision for a cooling system this means the engine management system is reducing engine power through reductions in ignition timing and addition of extra fuel just to keep everything safe. Any further reduction in pulley size would generate some extra boost pressure but even more heat again meaning the performance gain will be very short lived and potentially harmful to the engine. Simply Sports Cars, in conjunction with Harrop Engineering who manufacture the Lotus OEM TVS1320 supercharger, have developed a direct bolt on replacement using the TVS1900 charger. This charger has a significantly higher capacity, allowing us to use a bigger pulley to produce higher pressures and achieve lower intake air temperatures than the OEM set up. IF WE HAD TO PICK A NUMBER? The optimist in us would add a generous 20% drive train loss and announce that we have made 263.5kw(353hp) at the hubs into 329.37kw (441.7Hp) at the crank - 28% more than stock. On the other hand, the much more conservative side of us would use a more realistic end of the scale at 15% drive train loss, giving us 309.4kw (415Hp) - 20% more than stock. 6J63X9XQL9Y |
