Hi guys, I just bought a 2nd hand Proton Saga (2001 make). I would like to ask,
1) is it possible to change the carburetors to fuel injection? I'm just asking whether it is possible because as far as I know fuel injection is better than carburetor and can improve a lot on FC.  2)anyone have done sound insulation and can share something on this? I'm thinking to do some sound insulation but I have no idea at all. Thanks.   This post has been edited by shahiryusoff: Jul 18 2011, 04:10 PM |

QUOTE(the_catacombs @ Jul 18 2011, 07:44 PM) 1. yes it is possible... no fuel injection does not improve alot on FC... 2. superlone... bitumen... dynamat... etc... if want good FC, go fit NGV...  Is it better to put stabilizer bar? Do you know any shop (in Klang valley maybe) which can do sound insulation as you mention the brands? Sorry for asking noob questions but I'm still new.  |

Can I know is it possible to maybe tune the carburetor to save more fuel?
Anyone using any product to reduce FC? Mind sharing? |

QUOTE(Kamina_1992 @ Jul 22 2011, 02:16 PM) impossible without turbo.......if you wan install blow off valve you must BOT(bolt on turbo) to your engine.........roughly you must change into injection fuel system.than can install turbo....price i dunnow ask pros here.....TS know because he use turbo.... Oh. Okay. Do you know how much does it cost to install the blow off wisel that you mention? Roughly maybe?or transplant engine that already have turbo like 4G61T...... or if wanna sound effect like blow off valve....you can install somthing call blow off wisel at muffler.... QUOTE(Notoriez @ Jul 22 2011, 03:38 PM) Best device is your right foot... And by reducing fuel mixture (lean) MIGHT cause damage to the engine in the long run if you like to high rev. not to mention lost of power as well... Suggestion is to get your AFR to STOICH and control your right foot  |

Guys, I want to ask, Is it possible to like somehow "IKAT" the throttle paddle so that the speed will be limited to say 100KM/H only even if the paddle is fully pressed?
Or is there any equipment that can do this if it's possible? Thank you. |

QUOTE(the_catacombs @ Jul 28 2011, 12:50 AM) yes... loosen the throttle cable at ur carburetor spindle... allow far more free play before it tension up and turns ur throttle spindle... in that case, full throttle at ur pedal only equals to half throttle on carburetor... but driving style needs to get use to it... coz the first 50% throttle u apply on ur pedal is empty...  |

QUOTE(Notoriez @ Sep 8 2011, 11:29 PM) Your first bar should be room bar and it's cheap too. Not much effect on handling but safety yes (side impact) Thank you for the info. Which bar would you recommend to install? Do you know any shop in KL maybe which can install this with reasonable price?2nd bar should be side bar. Abit expensive but will help your car stable on fast speeds (feels like driving conti car) * depends on your absorbers + springs + tyres as well but what ever it is, you can immediately feel the effect  3rd bar should be either rear upper or fender bar (malas to explain) 4th bar should be rear ARB (for Saga Iswara only) as there is no custom front ARB for our chassis 5th bar should be 4 point middle lower bar (malas to explain) Useless bar Front strut bar (chassis too weak, cant feel the difference) **Disclaimer - This is only applicable for Saga Iswara..but generally the bars above will have the same effect on all types of car.. Thank you. |

QUOTE(Notoriez @ Sep 9 2011, 02:27 AM) With installation all together should be EA Sorry but where is EA? Do you have the address?If you ask around, the price maybe cheaper but not with installation. If you go UR HQ for installation, minimum charge is RM50. If you can find any other workshop that can offer cheap installation fee also would be nice provided the bar is cheap as well Another sifu here also can help to install if u r driving Saga/Iswara.. Sinister_Sid Btw,I'm driving a Proton Iswara. |

Guys, want to ask regarding my car as the picture below.
(Driver Side)
(Passenger Side)Does anyone/sifu know why is the passenger side tyre is like more offset or "terkeluar" ? You can really see that the passenger side tyre is more coming out. It is very obvious. This is the front passenger side tyre. Rear both tyres are okay. I think that the driver side tyre is okay but there's like some problem with the passenger side tyre. Anyone has had this problem or know why is it like this? Is it the CHASSIS bengkok ? The salesman who sold this car told me that this car has never been in an accident before so I guess it's not the chassis. HELP please. And, has anyone tried this thing before? Any positive result? Save fuel? More power? http://www.mudah.my/Vortex+Cyclone+Fuel+Sa...NGV-3421602.htm I think it is quite cheap but don't know whether has effect or not. |

Waiting for other sifu to reply. vortex cyclone? yeah. its big bang for the buck with increased 5% mentally horsepower. omg that was the worst design than surbo. lol 5% mentally horsepower? How about fuel saving? Does it help to save fuel? |
