MODIFIKASI MITSUBISHI LANCER EVOLUTION
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 8 GSR which you see now is not just a car that could only be enjoyed on weekends only. But more than that, because its owner, Ebel, risking his Evo 8 to compete in the drag race event. Thus, tuning is done starting all out. "But this car can cave touring racing settings," open Ebel, who is also frontman Motorsport Wisesa this workshop.

These differences in the two races made it impossible to re-think to rebuild the compound with the event in order to compete on a straight track racing. Okay, as an illustration of the seriousness of Ebel, no one else untouched sector of skilled hands. But it is the main focus in the kitchen there are changes as power generation pacemakers. Although only be used for speeding on a straight track, congenital 4G63T engine should be given therapy in order to produce their best performance.

"Target translucent cave above 500 dk," said Ebel. Energy targets for change that it surely requires not merely replace the turbo and then optimized with the engine computer upgrade, more than that. Because at this stage is not only powerful, but must also be able to excel records the shortest possible time. Capacity of only 2,000 cc engine that is still considered low, especially for the torque that is able to produce before the turbo spooling at max. No other way, options stroker kit installed soon. The result? pulley any engine capacity up to 2300 cc stroker kit through the use of AMS. It was donated from the long handlebar piston reaches 156 mm and the dimensions of crutches as up to 100 mm.

In the hands of the DC Sports EVO X changed like a road racing car. He not only more athletic, but also too arrogant. Various series body kit C-West alerts affixed on the exterior. The most prominent front bumper that would arise with a large air gap.
 

The S-AWC system, the which regulates torque and braking at EACH wheel includes a bevy of acronyms: ASC (Active Stability Control), ACD (Active Center Differential), AYC (Active Yaw Control) and Sport ABS, an ABS system Designed for aggressive driving. The Biggest difference over the outgoing car is the large number of yaw sensors included in the system, all Designed to keep the Evo X on its intended path.

The S-AWC system, cans be set for three different road surfaces: tarmac (standard), ice and gravel
In addition, the DC Sports Exhaust System also installs its own for EVO X roar more highly than the manufacturer's version. Even dyno tuned the digebah HBSpeed join the increasingly wild promising performance.
 

The Twin Clutch SST on the MR appears similar to the Audi / VW 's DSG system; even and odd gears are on separate clutches for the rapid-fire shifting, and no torque loss Between gears. Shifting of the TC-SST is controlled by alloy paddles on the steering wheel or the gear shift lever in manual mode Pls, and by the engine computer in automatic mode. The system has three modes: Normal, Sport and S-Sport, the latter Providing the most aggressive, fast shifts.

While the metal seat and was wearing street ARP to ensure the endurance of the engine when digeber until it reaches its limit. Then to get a monster power, certainly no longer the standard turbo can give their best performance. Instead, dipakailah pelecut Comp Turbo as extra energy. Fun, turbo-made country, Uncle Sam with the code has been adopted CT4380 triple ball bearings that have reached 4 inches in diameter at the compressor inlet and 3 inches at the outlet.  

So much, "The turbo housing is ported back to the air flow to be more solid," said Ebel. Thus, at a pressure of 2.3 bar turbo on the figures, obtained power to reach 595 dk ..! "We can Sentul QTT in 11 seconds with 2.1 bar boost and 540 HP power," said Ebel. In fact, after this stage, turbo boost going dipanteng at 2.7 bar with output estimated to reach more than 700 HP.

It has a tuner equipped with electric seat memory, individual air circulation, and Other knick-knacks.to steep incline, feels torque turbo Cayenne is far from enough to climb, let alone PTM dividing the front and rear traction wheels with self locking differential, which from the rear portion : front of 60:40, became divided again when one wheel loses traction with the help of antislip regulation on differential.

Plus the Porsche Torque vectoring Plus, so that the rear differential locked, so the traction to the road surface more leverage.

This was tested when passing a high mound, so that one wheel is raised, traction is still good for the other three wheels, while wheels that lose traction because it raised earlier will be stopped rotation through a coordinated braking with ASR and ABD.

Completeness of PHC (Porsche Hill Control) are also present, serves to hold the speed to be in 3 to 30 km / h on steep derivatives. However, the negative angle where in addition to declining and tilt, this function is less a wedge, as told by Yuma Wiranata Kusumah, a seasoned off-roader as the instructor of this activity.

Body kit must have been casual, almost all home modification features on this one. But the difference is in the package prepared by Cobra mufflers. This exhaust can be released in two voices that can be selected by the rider.

The first voice sounded smooth engine sound like standards. But if you want more stern voice could be modified like the sound of racing cars. Interestingly enough the replacement of this voice is done by remote control.

How to do? It appeared in the mufflers have a butterfly valve that can be opened and closed using this remote. When the exhaust valves closed that exit barriers are higher so the sound produced remains smooth. But when he opened his voice will be booming.

First nyemplak in the driver's seat, the body feels comfortable. Even so kemudahaan operation buttons (AC, head unit) and the gear lever and other.

Well, now tried the road. For the 1,000 cc-engined car, the Panda was responsive when asked to accelerate. And agile when maneuvering. Could be spelled out because the tiny dimensions (PxLxt = 3.598x1.630x1.465 mm).

Because of limited land, could eventually tested top speed of mini cars in the country dibanderol no more than USD 100 million. But for urban cars, Panda really fit. Moreover, for large cities in Indonesia that is famous for jamming.

Lotus decided to stop one of the models, Europa. This step is done because the manufacturer will launch the latest products New Evora, although still in the same segment.

As reported by autoevolution.com (05/30/2010), Lotus dealers in Europe was no longer receive orders Europa, and production slowly into phase stops. Europa was first released into the market right at the auto show in Geneva in 2006 past.

Sports sedan coupe was first launched armed with metal and fiber and aluminum to produce a lightweight. For Europa S type, holding 2.0 L engine powered 200 dk at 5400 rpm and torque of 272 Nm at 5400 rpm with a six-speed manual transmission. The car can accelerate from 0-100 km / h in 5.8 seconds with a maximum speed of 230 km per hour.

Machinery and performance
Technology is proud of this car is the engine Campro CPS (Cam Profile Switching) 1.6 liter DOHC. Latest engine added CPS and VIM (variable intake manifold) that can generate power 125PS@6.500 rpm (previously 110PS@6.000 rpm. 148Nm@4.000 rpm Torque is up from a 150Nm@4.500 rpm.

In the non-CPS Campro engine, the torque drop between 2500 and 3000 rpm. This is complained of some users. The weakness is overcome by using a valve system and open-close time can be arranged, which is generically called VVT-i.

At CPS, do not use the rocker arm valve (trigger) but tapet (bowl). Other technologies are VIM, suction line (intake manifold) whose length can change according to engine speed. At low rpm, channels suction longer. At high rotation, it becomes shorter for faster air flow into the engine.

Proton claims, Neo CPS can now be encouraged, 0-100 km / h in 10.5 seconds (manual), 12.9 seconds (automatic) and a top speed of 190 km / hour. Emissions are also already reached the standard Euro3.

It is recognized Chris Atkinson, rally driver from Rally Team Malaysia's Proton R3 Satria Neo S2000 is used. "Neo CPS Chassis sturdy, reliable in the rally," the story of Chris.

To control speed, grafted ventilated disc brakes in front and solid rear discs plus ABS and EBD. For safety, also installed two safety bags (airbag).

Lotus Elite become increasingly attractive, in addition to the aerodynamic design and the typical supercar, also uses a 5.0-liter V8 engine, capable of producing power of 620 PS and 720 Nm of torque. The car is capable of acceleration from 0-100 km / h only takes 3.5 seconds. When the driver stepped on the gas pedal more butter in, then the speedometer needle to touch the number 315 km / hour.Lotus says, Elite will use the hybrid gearbox with an integrated electric motor and an advanced feature Kinetic Energy Recovery System (KERS).
 

Lotus CEO Dany Bahar also commented that no one denies that the Elite is not only beautiful to see, but more than that, this is a compact car, high performance, low emission, light but still sturdy. "So we are proud and there is no better than the Elite out there, both in terms of style and performance," he said.

2010 New Lotus Sports Cars Exige S240

British performance sports car manufacturer Lotus has officially unveiled their 2010 Lotus Exige S240.  While Lotus fans will recognize this as a very subtle update, the grille and rear wing facelift is a step forward for the mark. The exciting new 2010 Lotus Exige S240 enters the United States and Canadian markets in the fall of 2009 with new front styling, a new rear wing and the same rare combination of exceptional performance and high efficiency.
2010 New Lotus Sports Cars Exige S240
The Lotus Exige S240 features a roof integrated air intake scoop feeds air through the air-to-air intercooled and supercharged 1.8 liter Lotus-tuned and Toyota-sourced 2ZZ-GE engine with Intelligent Variable Valve Timing (VVT-i) to provide 240hp at 8,000 rpm and 170 ft.-lbs. of torque at 5,500.
The 2010 Lotus Exige S240 sprints to 60 mph in a blistering 4.1 seconds and the 100 mph barrier sails by in approximately 10 seconds with top speed is 150 mph. The Lotus Exige S240 is equipped with a 6-speed transaxle synchromesh transmission, traction control and launch control. New for 2010, the optional Track Package will include adjustable Ohlins dampers with threaded spring perches and remote oil reservoirs front and rear.
The Lotus Exige is a renowned high performance coupe that has a well earned reputation as the choice for drivers who demand uncompromised performance, both on the road and on the track. The 2010 Exige S240 introduces a few key enhancements to update the appearance and improve aerodynamic performance. A restyled front end and new larger, low drag rear wing, not only reduces drag, but also gives a more muscular stance enhancing the lightweight shrink-wrapped look of the whole car.
Passing along lessons learned on the track with the Exige GT3 racing program, Lotus Sport Cars has contributed another important technology – variable launch control combined with variable traction control. The launch control allows the driver to determine the number of revs they wish to use during a standing start. Having programmed that limit, the driver then holds their foot down fully on the throttle pedal and sidesteps the clutch pedal for a very quick departure from the line. The clutch damper cushions the severity of the clutch to transmission engagement to minimize the stresses to the drivetrain. The launch control also keeps wheel-spin at bay until 6 mph, after which the traction control assumes its duties.
Like all Lotus cars, the functional components of the car are also beautifully designed as Russell Carr, Chief of Lotus Design, explains, "For 2010 we have taken the already visually extreme Exige and given it even more visual drama. The changes we have integrated to the front and rear of the Exige signal an even clearer and purposeful intent. The functional rear wing is race-inspired, the new angular air intakes and full width splitter give a more hard-edged and aggressive look. Overall, the Exige appears more planted and gives the illusion that both the front and rear of the car are wider than they really are, yet without losing its agile and sleek character."
The new 2010 Lotus Exige S240 is scheduled to launch in the US and Canada in the Fall of 2009. This new 2010 Lotus Exige S240 goes on sale this fall with a starting price of $65,690 and will be available in an upgraded track package with added performance benefits. The 2010 Lotus Exige S240 will hit U.S. and Canadian markets this Autumn.
