Guys, guys. I just had the biggest LOL ever.

I picked up my friend from UK at the airport. "Nice car. Is that a Dodge?

for me....i notice that 120KM/H is more silent than 90-100KM/H
i think it's becuz the power comes from 100KM/H...making the engine work lesser
so my car's 120KM/H is more silent than 90KM/H but of course i cannot always use 120KM/H in my place
uneven roads, potholes and speed limit is 90 as well

totally agree with you bro when i rev 2-3k and top speed 90-100,save alot mileage almost same as yours

hahahaha,guess i can't overcome completely anyway it should be fine cause i don't go above 120 daily driving.

Way 2go, bro! Upgrade yr music enjoyment AND "kill" the road/engine noise at same time!!

yea bro actually wanted to soundproof but too expensive and some cheap basic soundproofing i doubt will satisfy me much so decided to go for this setup since it's cheap and satisfies my music craze.i realized i tend to drive more relax nowadays enjoying my music

how much is sound proofing? where did u went for survey?

went to brothers they quote around 800-900 for the floor,4 doors and if got remainder add to the car trunk.
ask one of the lyners he quote Rm880 and that material just OEM not the STP.Besides that i found the autofoam they use a different method of soundproofing and guranteed good insulation but the price super expensive but it is overall the car i just did an estimation according to their price and it came up to 2.9k.

Just got my saga FL last friday. After emptied the tank i pump mobil ron97 to test. Pick up smoother and test it on kesas highway between 80-120 the engine sound lower than using ron95. I was told by others ron95 or 97 makes no different. Is this true or just my imagination ?

hmm..i got think of going to EA for them to test drive for quoting on bonnet & fender & floor insulation,firewall i dont think i will do it since dismantling dashboard will void proton warranty.

not sure how much it will cost for EA to install STP. Most crucial part is the bonnet.

ok bro do let me know the price,btw the bonnet is crucial but lately when installed amp in my car so they removed the floor mat which is attached to the body and it was so thin so i suspect quite alot of sound coming from there as well.Just my opinion i think for our car we need a good sound proof and not some oem type cause our stock insulation is bad so we won't feel that satisfied.

got...got difference
who tell u 95 and 97 got no difference is idiot
it makes a big difference
RON97 gives u more mileage ...the engine sounds like kitten rather like a monster
it's better in everyway
but RON97 isn't really worth using right now cuz difference price is RM0.90/L
mean doesn't matter how good the FC is for RON97 still cannot compensate the price gap which is too big
if difference is just RM0.10-0.20 thn it's worthed

should i raise the issue about my aircon condenser?

on a larger CC car, the 97 and 95 even with rm0.90 does make a difference. i used on my old accord 2.0 last time, lasted me 20-30 km more with full tank..

now with the SE, makes no difference, wasted my money pumping 97 only....
and my tyres are stock goodyear ducaro, i take corners in karak highway at 110kph no prob. of coz not in the wet la.. so far, top speed i hit while going downhill along karak is 171kph according to my GPS tracker.

at least we know that it doesnt copy anything

From which part it looks like Dodge??

GPS usually lower than actual speed
actual speed i think is around 175KPH or more
really?...but the price difference is like every 2L free 1L...such a big difference

Really?? Then i need to google it 1st.

Feel there shld b some difference. My old ride got better & smoother acceleration plus better FC.
However, with higher price per Litre, it kinda cancels out the FC gain!! Haha!

Should b tis model
