I choose Cold Air intake. Remain stock filter. Stock filter will flow more than enough air for your engine. Besides that, a full exhaust system revamp.

Any introduction of external air will be compensated by the ECU. More air, more fuel.

Besides Myvi is quite nimble during acceleration, what more can you do? A 1.3l will still have the same power, no matter what you do.

when i drive alone, the car pick up is good while moving up to higher road. if got 4 people in the car including me then the car need to rev harder to hike.

if i install the k&n air filter, would it help ?

my goal is no need to rev very harder to move when have 4 people in the car

IMHO, never go for LCP. I've heard more sob stories from Myvi owners after changing to LCP.

Change to a better grade engine oil, and ATF oil.

Basic maintainance is usually the best way to go. And honestly, you can't expect much from a 1.3 litre engine. Unless you turbocharge it for low boost.

What is LCP stand for?
