What is a Lotus Elise turbo kit?

I just got a Lotus Elise. My brother is telling me I should get a turbo kit, but I’m not sure what that is. What is a Lotus Elise turbo kit?

Congrats on the new car! A Lotus Elise turbo kit is a way to get more power out of your engine.
A turbo kit is an exhaust-driven air compressor. It forces extra air into the engine at a higher pressure, increasing the amount of power your engine can generate.
Turbo kits are not specific to any one brand, and you should be able to use any turbo kit that is compatible with your Lotus Elise’s engine.
However, know that installing a turbo kit can be a complicated process—we are talking about the engine, after all. Consider hiring a professional to help you get your engine turbocharged.
While you’re waiting for your turbo kit to be installed, why not improve your
