just read thru old posts, dam tiring.
anyway, seems that if i put works air filter and denso spark plug, i will get better performance, right? is it advisable to install it in new car? last time i browse some website about full acceleration for new motorcycle so that the pistons will be smoothed better and engine will last longer. is it applicable to new car too? |

as far as i can understand, usually new car (first time get it from shop) the sales person will advise u to drive slowly so that the engine will not get rev up drastically, and let the piston slowly smoothed out.
but what the article i posted advise the opposite. the break-in technique need us to rev up the engine with loads (means driving the car on road) and push it hard on 2nd gear before enter 3rd gear, and so forth. |

QUOTE(ZenGTMM @ Mar 10 2011, 02:55 PM) Yeah tried it for my PE.. What i can say is it feels much more powerful compared to other PE that went through the standard break in process lah.. So far no side effects.. But as what xandras has tested my car in our first TT.. My car felt the most powerful..  paindieme.. I buy last year was 4.00%  Its when u get ur car in the start.. U drive it hard.. So force the piston rings into the cylinder wall so that it takes the shape of the cylinder wall.. THen u have to change ur engine oil earlier cos the oil willbe full of those shards.. so if u continue to use u will actually scratch the wall lah.. I dyno run my car when i jsut got it and also went for some full speed test on the highway.  See above for explanation. Yeah the break in technique will only work when on road or when there is load and stress on the engine.. I nvr did it for 4th gear lah.. i did it till gear 3 and rev until 5k rpm only.. Nvr try maximum.. I sayang my beloved PE as well..  Poison me.. No money lah.. .Wuwuwuwuwu...  btw, for the works air filter and denso spark plug, anyone can pm me the price? thanks. |
