š„ We Build Champions
At BOE Fabrication, we donāt just build fast Lotus carsāwe build monsters that win. Whether itās a fire-breathing Exige on slicks or a perfectly tuned Emira for street and canyon carving, our team has deep experience in both racing and high-performance street builds.
Youāll find BOE-powered Lotus cars winning in SCCA Solo, SCCA Road Racing, NASA Pro Racing, HSR, Lotus Cup, and other competitive series. From engine development to ECU calibration, we offer the complete package for drivers looking to go Beyond Original Equipment.
We were the first to bring nickel-silicon plating and alternate rod ratios to the 2ZZ-GE platform. We helped pioneer solid rocker conversions, and we remain the only provider of a fully integrated tuning suite for the Lotus factory ECU. When it comes to innovation, high-end builds, and winning results, BOE is one of the most respected names in the Lotus world.

Meet the BOE Crew
Our crew is small, sharp, and unapologetically obsessed with performance. You never know who you'll find on the floor any given dayābut here are a few key players youāre likely to run into:
š§ Andrew āBudā ā The Boss
Engineer, tuner, project manager, and one of the minds behind BOE. Bud is hands-on with everythingāfrom tuning ECUs to managing race builds. If youāve got a tough tech question, wait until after his morning coffee. Then, ask away. Every serious build that leaves BOE has Budās fingerprints on it.
šŖ Josh āBig Joshā ā Chief Parts Breaker
Shipping, receiving, garage muscle, and professional bolt destroyer. Josh is the reason your packages go out on time and the guy we trust to remove parts (never install themāheās too strong). If you want to win him over, show up with a 6-pack.
šļø Phil ā The Track Rat
ECU whisperer, racer, and track-day junkie. If Philās not at the shop, heās probably at the track. He brings a deep understanding of chassis dynamics, data analysis, and electronic wizardry to the teamāplus, heās fast behind the wheel.
š¦ Susy ā The Backbone
Orders? Shipped. Inventory? Managed. Chaos? Contained. Susy makes the shop run and keeps customers happy. Be niceāshe knows where everything is and how to get things done faster than you can ask, āWhereās my tracking number?ā
