super widebody Lotus Exige labeled “KING KONG”.
Discussion
a widebody Lotus Exige with the stock supercharger and a turbo. Combined effect is around 500 horsepower
[quote]KING KONG – widebody Exige
Lotus Exige is one of the sexiest sports car out there that has the looks of a super exotic but with a sticker price of decent euro family sedan. Lotus enthusiasts have tweaked this compact rocket to squeeze more power, go wider and plainly just to go buck wild with it.
Take for example this crazy looking, super widebody Lotus Exige labeled “KING KONG”. This beast is owned by Frank aka Ronin built by Specialty Car Craft, Inc based in Los Angeles, CA.
From the front shot, it’s hard to see how wide this thing is.
The engine puts down some serious power – over 500hp serious power on this lightweight chassis. This was attained by TWIN-CHARGING- yes, it has a Turbo and a Supercharger.

I'm only on PH and GT40s.com (only a member for now) and our dutch DF forum so I accidentally came across this one while looking for a Lotus Exige/Elise with V8 
thought I drop it also here, i wonder what they changed in the internals of the yota...seems they kept using the standard SC so the story says.

Don't see you on here often these days Rene? Hope life's being good to you
Indeed, I'm not that often anymore on PH because my head is not working that well sadly...even English became more difficult so I use les words and the more simple words...So thats why, but I still love cars I take it more easy...I have too sadly.But thanks life is still "good" but my brains getting slower/tired (my car not though) so its a bit more intensive on English forums...I love the language but its a bit heavier in the years.
hope you guys do oke too
I'm a bit more again on Lotus because I'm interested in a Lotus Elise/Exige V8 sort of car
so I look around maybe next year or so.cheers
René
