if like that thn our IAFM is sucking in hot air?...

advantage for turbocharge system... dun hav to worry about CAI or air box bcoz how hot the air coming in, there's always inter-cooler for you... hehehehehe...

noneed tebo also can pasang interculer la bro, my mech in serdang racun me with such thing.

normal price not cheap, but they owez do price cut and promotion.. like my absorber & spring, i bought it RM750 only.. hehehehe...

and they sell UR brand, which i cant find anywhere in kuching... STY also selling ayam brand...

iafm or current intake setup using CAI concept, driving air from front to the intake... but the prob is when using open pod, we cant use the same setup anymore..

oh ok. im no fan to UR, but kaki 3max. itu proride im a runner as well, so i know the differences between the price coz they needa include the shipping fee from here to kuching.

yup, can... and for campro, it do giv us better performance... if u realize, driving at nite will give u more umphhh compared to driving at hot sunny day..

btw do let me know if u come kuching, mayb u wanna do small TT for blm club later, hehhehe...

my kar i plan cap ayam only..nothing to mod liaw, just some better breathing, but not exhaust systems la..itu luar pelan aku dah.

thanks alot bro with the aid of the diagram i have a better idea now and may opt for open pod

good to hear that... may the "force" be with you...

Thanks for the info.

Um, but according to Omara's explanation above, it's the viscosity that matters, not the type of oil? Is it because thin oils like 0w30 are only / mainly available in synthetic and you're referring t those? I can understand if you say fully synthetic is a waste of a money (because semi is just as good?), but to say that it will damage the engine is quite a serious allegation when on the contrary the advantage of synthetic oil is supposed to be superior protection. So would you agree with me that thin synthetic oil like 0w30 is no good but the 15w50 provided to me by the SC is actually okay?

Mmm 1800 RPM is very high, my car, like Omara's idles at about 1000+ when cold and just below 1000 when warmed up.

You must be doing very heavy traffic driving to get 240 km on a full tank. When my car was brand new, for the first two months I'd fill exactly 25 litres (instead of filling it full) each time and I can remember even then I'd get at least 300 km out of the 25 litres. 100% Penang island traffic.

Here's how I get 400+ on one tank:

1. Switch off engine at red lights.

2. Shift gears up very quickly and keep revs low.

Depending on how fast the traffic is accelerating I'd shift up even earlier. 4th gear at 35 km/h and 5th gear at 50. This is only for flat roads, or downhill. If you're going uphill you need to drag the gear longer or else the engine will struggle.

3. Find alternative routes to avoid traffic jams. Nowadays I use a long way to go home, it adds 7 km to my journey but the traffic is free flowing all the way and there's only two major traffic lights but without long queues.

4. Coast a lot, in gear. There's no need to keep stepping on the throttle when your car has enough momentum to coast till the end of a queue at a traffic light.

I think your high FC is due to the tuning and it should be back to normal when they fix it at your 1,000 km service.

On the other hand if you're idling at 1,800 RPM it must be pretty impossible to stall the car when moving off

It doesn't really matter. I'd try to go the moment it reaches 1,000 km but there's no harm if you exceed a bit. I went at 1700+ km and the SC didn't say anything

thin syn statement i agree. what i know is full syn hurts the ride.our campro macam dun consume full syn. even my mech tolds me that. i dun ask back the mech as they are normally tired of replying such questions.

yup.. full synth damage our car... the more detail explanation is, full synth with thin viscosity rating, which is available to most brands out there...

the full-synth given by the service centre to u was Syntium 1000, has the same viscosity rating with Semi-Syth syntium 800... it's safe for our BLM...

the main point is, check the rating 1st, price, brand, semi or full or mineral, that all later...

Thanks for the clarification, guys.
