QUOTE(kelvink78 @ Mar 5 2013, 08:43 AM) Comparing the cc for both Exora Bold CFE and Exora CPS, why CFE only has 1561cc but CPS has higher 1600cc? Can anyone enlighten me? Quoted from motor trader.QUOTE added that CFE uses the forced induction technology which provides maximum power at lower rpm. The increase in power output is 8% to 138 bhp while torque is raised by about 37% to 205 Nm, available between 2000 and 4000 rpm. While the CFE engine runs on the same 10:1 compression ratio as the CPS engine without forced induction, it has a stroke of 86 mm, 2 mm less than the CPS engine. The bore remains the same for both engines but it is not known if the stroke length is due to using a shorter con-rod or a different piston. The resulting displacement is 1561 cc instead of 1597 cc. The top speed with the CFE engine is claimed to be 185 km/h. http://www.motortrader.com.my/news/proton-...prime-and-bold/ |

QUOTE(calmshot @ Mar 5 2013, 09:29 AM) your info seems to be wrong... as i know the compression ratio of CFE is 8.9:1 read here belowOne fundamental change was a reduction in stroke from 88 mm to 86 mm. With the retained 76 mm bore, the swept volume reduced from 1,597 cc to 1,561 cc. This was brought about by the very compact height of the existing iron cylinder block which did not provide enough space to increase the required piston strength or lower the piston crown to achieve the desired compression ratio. |

I can see that u are one of the enthusiastic dude here about cars & had done many test.. Would like to ask, if u know our CFE Bold able to map to the steering paddle gear shift just like the preve' have?? |

QUOTE(akchang @ Mar 10 2013, 05:00 PM) Bro, initially, I thought of that, replacing the stock absorber too, but somehow, went for autofoam to get the feel of rigidity first, coz wanted to getrid of engine & irritating CVT noise. I scared if too rigid feel, then it will not be comfort.. bcoz I'd changed to 17" rim mated with 17/50/215 tyre. BTW, may I know what brand ur using now? How much improvement felt on the body roll now (doing fast cornering)?? This post has been edited by Turbocrazy: Mar 10 2013, 10:14 PM |

How much improvement felt on the body roll now (doing fast cornering)?? I always drive/test the exora cornering from Damansara tol (heading towards north) there is a long curve. I'll say the handling did improve tremendously from what i felt previously. Also when the car hits those yellow lines on the road it has less vibrations. Now sounded like more solid thumping sound. |

Agree, I still enjoying the autofoam till now, after installation a year ago. Engine noise seem further away from the cabin & the rigid ride feel.. Can't wait to do the second round. The only negative point is the body roll feel which still need to improve. Are u still using stock rim & did u change the spring also??I always drive/test the exora cornering from Damansara tol (heading towards north) there is a long curve.
