2.0 ah.. but up to cameron.. impressive FC.
i think if going uphill 2.0 will always have upper advantage compared to 1.6 due to extra power to lift up the body. rclxms.gif

I joined the second group buy of the sharkfin organised by one of the KiaForteMalaysia.com's member last time. It cost me around RM260 all-in. Few weeks ago got someone in FB also organizing group buy for the VG sharkfin..not sure still open for listing or not.

dunno....when i asked last time abt save fuel thing...i think in previous versions....
they said the air fuel ratio pressure to big, and might damage the engine....am i rite? read it somewhere, forget where d...
yes, do save FC, and slowly damage the engine as well....
that's y i asked some forummers, fixing microcompressor does it help improve FC......that's wat they told me....

i think i wanna try this

lol. no offence bro. do you think sticker can do wonders?
i've read on that for long time ago and no single +ve feedback from buyers. it's clearly scam.
but up to you if wanna try. just my opinion.

as for the air fuel ratio.. it might damage engine in the long run.. the question is.. how long is long? instantly? 1 month? 5 years? 10 years?

From my understanding, the TAB got nothing to do with the air pressure. It simply suck in more air (no compression whatsoever) for a lean air to fuel mixture thus providing more complete combustion. But too lean also not good for the engine..so need to adjust the TAB (try & error) until u get the best setting that gives more power with hopefully good FC.

Long enough until i sell the car of is good enough for me..say 7 years time..lol. I believe our engine is not that prone to the damage unless we set the air to fuel ratio too lean until your engine knocking (pinging). If no pinging (especially during heavy load or hill climbing), i can safely assume it is safe enough. I consider it worth the risk (if any) for the extra 'kick' that i got..is it true Taipan? hehe..
