not really effective because wave/sound is not absorb directly. preferred aaron's sound proof method. just like the one perodua stick on the front bonnet. but now, they dont do liddat anymore.

then you put the insulflex to cover the big hole. sure the outcome will be more significant.

You cannot go wrong with either Black or White. It is classic. That's the reason classic black and white film still evergreen. Other color than that will make you "gayer" over time.

Mine is black too. Satu minggu dua kali cuci. Kereta masih baru. Sayang. Tunggu satu tahun lagi, mesti sudah malas.

Added on September 28, 2012, 9:16 amReport : Day 2 with Edge VS.

Balik from kerja terus ajak bini keluar. Actually want to whack her car la. Love the smell of new car. .

1. Light no more dimming/flickered when aircond compressor kicks in.
2. RPM maintain at 3k when climbing hills at low speed/gear engage at D.

Significant change is the RPM status. Car so sluggish when going up a small hill due to rpm low at higher gear. Now different oledy. The car maintain it at 3rd gear at higher RPM.

lets see what are other result in coming days.

Regarding Automatic Transmission Gear Box, i was advised by my brother, that i should always shift the gear from low to D, everytime driving first time in the morning.

He told me that a lot of gearbox for automatic car has problem because driver hardly rev at low gear on a straight road. most of the driver engage D when driving, unless naik bukit.

This is to maintain the gearbox. He has experienced it with Govt Proton perdana before. That's the reason s'gor govt scrap perdana for its high maintenance and bought toyota camry.

ok. I be gentle with gear box. only rev up to 3k saja. i did not floor the pedal at all. The EDGE VS is doing it.

when u start the aircond, light will flicker for first time when compressor kick. Observe during car idling, when aircond compressor kicks in/out. No flickering. Could be my MF battery?

Added on September 28, 2012, 2:55 pmBro, how is your car now? you are very unlucky. That's what every mechanic say about our local car. Depend on luck.

I oso feel the gegar on pedal when switching on my wiper. i assume the chassis very thin one. vibrate the whole body.

Added on September 28, 2012, 3:04 pmBetter do sound proofing first. At least add in insulflex or sticky pad on your door panel. Later ur boom box will make the side door / tin milo go piak piak.

unless you listen to mozart/bethoven .. light and easy FM.

two ways in front, three ways at rear. No no for a bass box on a untreated sound proof car. Later jadi macam ah beng in kancil. Lagu boom boom boom. Doors and windows piak piak.

Window rolled down. Look at you with one kind. Kesian them.

Ahhh.. i miss my youth..

if u add this EDGE VS, better get a strut bar. Installed on Thursday.

Instantly, the rev is much more better. Tekan skit ada response.

Now my wife can drive like a madman.

report day 3

wife came back from evening shift just now. terus pinjam keta bawa jalan jalan.

no significant changes today. same like yesterday. better rev/rpm. one thing i notice, when going downhill, rpm maintain tho i did not press pedal. engine revving and it's cruising. very funny.

i do suspect the aircond compressor cause the car to sluggish. try going uphill n the compressor kick in. engine macam kena asthma attack. that's y i believe u all should invest on a good VS.

Added on September 29, 2012, 12:31 amcongratulations. neeway, just found out im expecting no 2. that's it. game over for me. final mod gonna be KN Filter.

soundproof/tires hafta wait. pakai sampai botak.

haha. wife is not production factory.

Day ?? with Edge VS.. i lost count..

Last nite, foot was really heavy. Rev up to 5k. Reach 110km less than 15 sec.

Oh yes, before u add in the VS, crank up your bass / treble. Listen carefully to notice the differences later.

Now the bass start to sound better. Notice a solid thumping sound when i played Niki Minaj "Pound the Alarm" cd.. used to be long boooomm.. Wife does not like treble so didnt really inspect.

Light still flickered when starting the car/switching the aircond. Notice light becomes a bit brighter.

Other than that, i bought two huge plastic container from Giant. Put behind bonnet. Arrange wife's messy file/belonging/notebook. Now look really neat and "tersembunyi" . Also, when you buy fish, at least car will not smell like market.

ok bro. But the bass feels good at 3+ .

Have not install GC yet. Hope will improve better once the GC is in later stage. Tunggu 3rd service dulu.

Dont leave us bro. We need check and balance. Light and Darkness. You are our dark Jedi.

sudah pasang kah?

belum lagi bro. got no time with the car. wife always use.

i notice the clarity of sound since last week but could not be bother. Enjoy revving the engine. Fuel saving as well. You can see the rpm drop to 1.5 - 2k when cruising in highest gear.

at 110km. the car goes into 5th gear
rpm drop to 1.5 to 2k.

bro, u sudah pasang? test drive oledy?

felt like in 5th gear. rpm very low wen cruising at 110km. mine auto mah.

u abuse i pay monthly.. mati la. if wife abuse wat to do. else sleep at couch every nite.

No problem. Will try again this weekend.

hey guys, finally got the chance to whack wife's car. confirm 2.5k rpm on 110km on cruising mode. guess i was drunk when reading the rpm before. hick.
