Ecotec Expertise

Our partnership with Secant now affords us real expertise with the Ecotec powertrain. We will be looking at solutions for the 2.4 & 2.0 Ecotecs found in the Solstice/Sky.

Anyone can bolt on a bigger turbo or other mechanical bits. What our friends at Secant can do is deliver a properly tuned solution. Engine calibration and mechanical integration at OEM levels is what these guys do daily. Since our guys understand these motors AND how to tune them safely, we expect to have some great power solutions sorted.

We are interested in your feedback on what type of performance you are interested in with your Sky/Solstice. Give us a call or shoot us an email with your thoughts. We intend to continue to sort solutions for these cars and hope to get a clear idea of the items you would like.

Ecotec in a Lotus!

One of the products from our partnership with Secant Engineering is a full powertrain swap for the Elise/Exige + power ehancement for the Atom2. The Secant boys have done an exceptionally nice job in integrating the Ecotec powertrain into their Exige. Their OEM-like approach is evident when you see how clean the engine bay looks.

Secant has already commercialized their Stage 1 kit. It produces 280hp & 241ft-lbs of torque. The power of this kit is impressive BUT so is how docile the car is around town and in day to day use.

The engine shown above was built for us by GM Racing. We will be plugging it into Secant's Exige. We're undertaking this minor surgery at our shop this weekend. This motor is fully built to withstand the added power that will be generated thx to the new TVS supercharger that we are bolting to it. This is the same blower on the new ZR1. It is very efficient and can move massive amounts of air. We'll also raise the rev limiter to 7,500rpm.

We are shooting for approx 325hp. Our ultimate goal is to offer SAFE and RELIABLE power upgrades. We're confident that our aero, brake & suspension solutions are ready for this level of power. Delivering a balanced solution is high on our list.

If you have some free time this Saturday, feel to stop by between the hours of 10-2pm.

monkeyBAR update!

We've been running our monkeyBAR in our R56 for almost two months now and love it! There's something about being strapped into a sporty car that inspires confidence. Our R56 harness bar solution helps us focus on enjoying the MINI and not trying to stay in the seat!

We recently installed the final production black powder coated monkeyBAR in a costumer's R56. It looks great with the blue Schroth PROFI II harness and blue leather inserts on the seats.
