ho to all forte members...i'm intrested in getting the 2.0 forte but need some practical information from existing owner

-hows the ride?
-any prob?
-how about the FC (2.0)
-any problem encountered?
-where 2 service? Klang

It looks like you're just letting excess air in after the throttle body, which probably means this extra air is bypassing the O2 sensors. IIRC, your ECU among many other things, adjusts the amount of fuel injected based on how much O2 it senses coming in, so in effect, you do get a better burn because you have a bigger air to petrol ratio, however, I seriously doubt this is good for the engine, as air intakes have filters for a reason. Secondly, like pointed out by others, eventually your ECU will probably detect this anomaly and adjust back to normal (injecting more petrol to keep up with the excess air), which then, you wll probably lose all benefit, if there is any real benefit in the long term.

I really don't suggest you guys use these products. I'm not disputing it's effectiveness, I'm sure it works... but at a cost. Looking at the device, I can already deduce how it works. Nothing special about it at all. Just a simple cylinder with bores along the sidewalls so that air can be sucked in due to the negative pressure of the intake manifold. Turning the "ADJUSTER" just simply rotates another cylindrical object inside to close or open more of the bore holes. You might as well cut a hole in your intake manifold.

N1....better not mod it...i still prefer using VS+GC better....

Added on October 30, 2010, 1:53 pmand the best way to change to 1800CC are :
1st. Change bigger piston
2nd. make the piston hole wider(suitable 2 fit 1.8L Piston) from engine block
3rd. Change crankshaft to a better quality+abit longer 1....

do this...if u wanna change from 1.6 to 1.8 using N/A mode....
or else, plant in soft turbo...

but if wanna do these....make sure warranty period over(either after 2 yrs or 5 yrs-EWP)

not to mention......u r trying 2 kill the engine itself/weaken the engine lifespan....am i rite?? RahXeph0n ...

-hows the ride?  > Speechless..
-any prob? > Nope..just a minor rattling sound on the backseat & dashboard
-how about the FC (2.0) > FC (City)= averagely 9-11L/100km & depending on your right foot also. Highway (at 110km/h) = 6.5L/100km
-any problem encountered? > Nothing
-where 2 service? Klang > Kindly surf Nazakia website..got many in Klang Valley

weyyy.. install TAB silently yaa..
same modus operandi.. KFC install HU, next day its you.
this TAB thingy, i know u already install. hahahaha.

Hahaha..exactly the same modus operandi. After reading so many good reviews + asking u some questions + some other readings, i decided to install it in complete silence    First 2.0 Forte to have this TAB installed..even the installer need some time to figure it out on where to install it & the review for the device is as what u previously said..no regret in any way More silent mods to come..watch out..hahaha

only white offers solid 2k....others are metallic...

Myvi/Saga white are juz plain Solid.
Solid 2k are brighter than plain Solid. looks much better than plain Solid which saga blm/myvi offers.
But..in term of white colors, the best for budget cars, still Alza white color, which is pearl white, wins metallic......can repaint ur car 2 that color if u wan but i guess juz kinda waste of money...

alza pearl white is kencing color white. same like myvi pearl white.

lol...why is it because it will become 'kuning-kuningan' after a while??

what is TAB?

YES YES!!
Loan approved!!
hehe.... guys, wanna ask./.. SA offer me to install ABS body kit same as NAZA offer at RM2400 with free mat and visor.
Is it worth? or can get cheaper?
Thanks

what is TAB?

Same question here, what is TAB?   Tak Ada Bini????

go read few pages back. don't want to comments further and don't want to be blame if anything happen in the future.
do your own research before commit anything in mod.
