24.8 kg-m TORQUE ON THE DYNO??? WHAT THE F***? (that's 9.8*24.8=243Nm, measured at hubs not crank!) 15% improvement at all revs too???

@Ryephile hey, you said the SC made the Elise a brilliant well rounded car...well, apparently 15% extra torque everywhere is not so hard?

This had better be a joke. More specific torque than a Ferrari 458 by far...considering several percent of that torque is disappearing through friction in the gears.
Something ain't right, and I don't know Japanese so I can't verify it. We don't know what's been done to the car but i'm going to assume the bottom number is supposed to be stock and no one's come close to ~180whp. Regardless I'd really like to know what they did to accomplish a 20% increase in power.

In other news that exhaust sounds pretty fantastic....but looks crazy expensive. However that Nameless Performance sounds really good too (thanks for the vid guys,) and I don't imagine it's as pricey
