Forced Fed is a US Company. They offer a range of kit and also act as an engine package installer for US Noble owners.

The noise is combination of wastegate chatter and DV woosh - sounds strange as the mic is only picking out certain frequencies of it due to the background noise.

IMHO not too much power, just a lack of refinement in the way it is delivered.

hmm I dont think theres such a thing as too much power as such but I can tell you 100% he's ruined his elise there lol not the best car to have all that power in. When would you use it? it wont make that much difference on track and would probably be positivley dangerous on the road.

IMO cars like the elise should be about fun. I've had my little 150 bhp vx sideways and spinning out etc on a track event today and had a lot of fun. That elise looked a very srious car to drive and I think that spoils the car TBH. You need a longer wheelbase to have proper fun in the corners with that much power.
