Lotus with a compound charger setup on Mulholland

[seanek9]

turbo + supercharger = compound.............. er no twincharge more like, not unless your turbo is mechanically connected to your drive train or crank, still an awsome car though!

[adotwhite]

next car when im done paying off my evo

[nccrawford]

That's Karate Kid Elise aka @roninexige

Ugliest wheels ever.

[roninexige]

@nccrawford Yeah they are, the car is Ferrari primer grey and the car is so slow too...

But it's mine not yours so who gives a shit what you think...?

[nccrawford]

@roninexige Apparently you. I'd have never known who you are if you hadn't told me to fuck myself for asking about the dyno. You understand that my words were, "isn't it customary to show the car on the dyno?" That's not a knock. You'd have to admit that the choice of orange and lime green wheel is going to be off putting to most people, right? I'm a Lotus enthusiast and I'd even say that. I thought they looked great in the off-white.

[jamesprankerd]

looks my lotus of need for speed

[RamyIsAwesome]

i liked the prius

[AndrewCBR]

Yeah, Prius on Mulholland! :)

[RiceKiller191]

Not sure how efficient Compound Boosting is on 4cyl's...

[roninexige]

@RiceKiller191 It made Lancia world champ in Group B rally but don't tell anyone...it really doesn't work and is a totally stupid idea....lol

[RiceKiller191]

@roninexige I know it's done on 03-04 Cobras a bit but I never seen a 4cyl with it lol. I guess it's so they can say "Yeah I'm running compound boost, Supercharger AND Turbo. Yeah, I'm badass" It's stupid with the parasitic effect of the supercharger. Why not get a 76mm single and call it kosher?

[roninexige]

@RiceKiller191 becaus I know more than you do about building an engine for the twisties and you know nothing about compound charging.... Bring your 1.8 ltr engine with a 76mm up for a drive and lets see what happens when it hits boost in the twisties...lol

[RiceKiller191]

@roninexige Glad to see your not a tool at all...

[claymore2k1]

@RiceKiller191 Very very efficient, it's also good on 5 cylinders :)

[Legotruck82]

@RiceKiller191 Probably the best thing for a 4 pot as it almost eliminates low down lack of torque.

[officialLINKSIS]

such a sick car!

[otacon451]

wouldnt a shotgun mike help you capture the distant sound better?

[roninexige]

Compound charging is a pice of cake if you know what you're doin...

If you don't like yellow wheels I've got grey/silver, orange and beige....Money buys wheels.... If you think you can buy wheels to give the perception of class it is you without any class....lol

[TJDeadkid]

uhh i thought putting a supercharger and turbos was possible but impossible to calibrate them together?

[xExRxIxCxKx]

@TJDeadkid nope just really complicated and not worth it unless ur ballin enough lololz

[seattle0002]

Yellow rims. Money doesn't buy class.

[DUDElookAtDatChick]

Prius </3 hahaha

[FmxAlexBmx]

A new flavor of "Rice"

[kkingss4]

does anyone know how much a lotus cost in the us?

[tagerung90]

@kkingss4 I don't know about the U.S, but in Vancouver an elise is in the 50 grand range

[JAYFROMHARLEM]

Damn that thing looks sexy

WRX Owner

[roninexige]

The yellow wheels have been redone body color and light grey..

Now running 34 psi. 680 whp.

[ChibiMaou]

@ohai2u Sequential twin turbo systems are VERY expensive to get right if the car did not come with it to begin with. Anti-lag can(does) damage the turbo. these are not problems on race cars as they do not have to be streetable and get rebuilt fairly often. compound charging is good because the super charger is predictable at any rpm range. It's like tuning a single turbo car.

supercharger adds low rpm torque and builds boost faster on the turbo. sounds like a good deal to me. :)

[Wei55Adler]

yellow rims...  first silver original, next wide white... orange.. and yellow .. VVEEERY NICE

[roninexige]

They didn't even give me a copy of the fuckin magazine...

[SpotterGijs]

That is one hell of a Lotus!

[roninexige]

Hey guys I just found this.....Those wheels are monkey piss yellow and I think they make my toy look like a fuckin toy not some wanna be "supercar" poser.....

I was just puttin a few breakin miles on my new high rpm engine and gettin use to my new short shifter....check out the video I did yesterday from the inside on my chanel roninexige.

Thanks for posting this I think it's fuckin cool to see the car where it belongs, not on some Mag cover that won't even give me a photo for my time.....

[KuostA]

@roninexige Interesting to see it from youre perspective. i like your mentality. its a weekend TOY, not a supercar, so you mod respectively to show so. the mags that ive seen your car on didnt reimburse you or give you photos for shooting your car at all???? insight would be nice!

[umbertino6]

It's Ronin's Exige!

[F1GHTERS]

you can hear that turbo and super goo NICE

[abdulharvey]

i saw this car in a magazine ..nice

[medelucki1]

Very nice

[KuostA]

[socalspeedzone]

@KuostA not many cars when I was up there.

[KuostA]

Thank you for finallly posting up this video it made my penis' day

[TheFerrarichannel]

This car was featured in an issue of ''Modified'' sweet car!

[mobsterbillyjoe]

different colors. it made that biker turn his head. had a sexy sound, btw. lol at the prius

[boy31]

saw this car today... TRUE BEAST!

[TurboLag23]

Which widebody is that? Looks sort of like a Kobayashi kit....

Not liking the rim color; would have been better in gunmetal, or gunmetal rim & gold spokes.

NICE sound though! That thing must be a load of fun to drive!

[socalspeedzone]

@TurboLag23 last time I saw it the wheels were orange.

[TurboLag23]

@socalspeedzone yeah, I looked it up; found it was a Ronin or something like that. But yeah, still... orange? haha a bit creative for me... but orange did work better than green.

[socalspeedzone]

@TurboLag23 when I got a ride they were white.

[MustangnfsQc]

what's with the ugly snot color rims?

[subaruwrxfan]

Wow, that thing looks sweet!

[dondonmofo99]

Also known as the Ronin Exige....

[socalspeedzone]

@dondonmofo99 I have some in car footage from a ride I got that I will post.

[ori599gtb]

It remembers me the Lancia Stratos in a certain way

[Fuzion180]

looks pretty funky, sounds great! oh wow a turbo and supercharger, cool :O

[Bumblebee7113]
