QUOTE(K5WHITE @ Mar 27 2012, 10:15 AM) less power, but 3% more fuel efficient... well i was just wondering, whether will it penetrate into malaysia market. The additional 100kg+ weight reduction sounds nice. Its average weight of 2 adults. It will help in better pickup i guess. If u were to do the same as wat u mentioned to the theta engine with the nu engine, u will get further reduction in fc too. Probably its just for china market?i think the 3% u can get from using high grade engine oil, jaga tyre pressure, or take out unnecessary weight luggage in the car...no need the nu engine...  |

i know, but less power from the Nu engine ler..... already so many debates abt the lethargic performance, wanna drop horsepower somemore ar? Added on March 27, 2012, 11:52 am Only 2-3 hp different ma. But the different in weight is huge, tht shall compensate the lower power rating which justify the 3% better fc. My 2 cents  |
