update on TCP with the iswara:

knocking fully resolved, may consider to advance back my ignition timing lol
no significant improvement in response/power though (maybe still on the retarded ignition timing)

lol didn't stock up, only bought 4, and i guess it's going to be 1 for each car. maybe i'll buy more soon ish, depending on how the iswara goes. atm it isn't doing much of a miracle for me:


update again on the TCP for iswara:

re-advanced the ignition, while the knocking only happens around 6-7k rpm (no reason to push more if it's already knocking), it's still knocking nonetheless so i had to retard the ignition again.

to be fair, it's only less than 10km or something after i filled the tank with TCP, maybe it'll take a while for the cleaning action to work it's way through.

and i guess it is working when the knocking already happens regardless of rpm so long you floor the throttle and can happen as early as 3k rpm or so.
so in the end it is still a minor improvement, just not solving it completely (yet, anyways) as i hoped it to be

what previous posters said, and y es i posted regarding oversea pricing as well lol

thats more than RM50, we got it easy then

i believe kaki motor carries it, iinm seen it before at kaki motor mid valley lol

why is it dangerous? if you're afraid, you can pour in at half tank or before the fuel warning blinks.

if you're still skeptical, just use caltex fuel only.

Correct

no RON value booster i believe (or it's too little to be noticeable), the redline one should have though since they claim as such.

well if the injectors/combustion chambers aren't clogged, supposedly there would be better fuel delivery and better combustion.

but of course it could be all placebo anyways
personally as per my 2 feedback, not much difference.

but hey, smoothness aside, most people are using it for the peace of mind (keeping the fuel system clean) anyways

you know, i wonder what's the fuss with vpower, when i can just load up 97 petronas/bhp and a couple more bottles of octane boosters and then maximum ignition advance

sadly i can't quite do that *yet* with my inspira lol... else it'd be pretty damn fun

the label says can use for carburetor, i used on my iswara carb.

so care to explain why it is not recommended?

ok 3/4 bottles used, may consider stocking up... why?

butt dyno on the inspira seems better acceleration despite being a 9k km 6 month old car... (well technically it's born in 2012 lol...)

hmm only drove some less than 5km from station to my house, so hard to judge yet, but the throttle seems lighter...
again, butt dyno so take it with a pinch of salt.

iswara/sentra not much difference at all even on butt dyno.

so last bottle still pending the kancil which still got a week of usage to go (damn that low fc car )

i'm going with placebo because my old cars no difference while my new inspira got

come to think of it, after half way down the tank with TCP, whatever butt dyno feel also seems to be gone.

in fact, 300v gave me a whole lot better butt dyno feel than TCP

awesome test video bro!

keeping a bore scope in my wishlist

=edit=
oh ya help fix vid link
