QUOTE(brotan @ Jun 22 2012, 11:05 AM) the 2000rpm when turbo kicks in? haha Turbo boost comes in around 1500 rpm and that's why you get good pickup from stationary. Maximum torque comes in at 2000 rpm.haven't got a chance to try becuz short distance ride so far. will try tomorrow going back my mum place (PJ -> Cheras)  |

Maximum torque comes in at 2000 rpm. wow, that's nice (i mean the kicking in of turbo early)i must admit. After a few seconds i press the pedal, i feel like taking space shuttle and zooming into outer space. rofl need to adjust myself so that i don't bump the front car. hehe This post has been edited by brotan: Jun 22 2012, 11:11 AM |

QUOTE(klate @ Jun 22 2012, 06:41 AM) Thanks for invitation but I'm not interested to lock in debate at this moment.... I would rather be in discussion, sharing and collaboration.... cheers. Like many people, you are getting mixed up on 2 things. BASE oil and ENGINE oil. They are not the same.May be a little bit of conclusion from me related to Syn Vs Mineral.... but I try to be nutral since I'm not the expert so I won't make any stand for others to follow. Even the expert admitted that the argument about which is better is ........ so who am I to debate this matters with you. To take the best and be on the save side (but of course an expensive proposal), use fully synt and change it every 5k km  .All expert agrees Synthetic Base Oil is generally superior to Mineral Base Oil. Enough people had already posted about it. But you have to remember, nobody put pure Base Oil inside their car engine. Doing so will 100% void your warranty. |

QUOTE(Optiplex330 @ Jun 22 2012, 10:55 AM) No jerking. Just reluctant to move for 1/2 or 1 second or so then everything OK. Even if you step on the pedal. Oic, always skeptic with cars that behaves like this, good to know its not serious |

Just went back to the sa for something else and mention to him about the lagHe said this is safety feature because some people not used to the high power of exora But he said the response time can be adjusted to be instant power if you wish to, meaning no lag This post has been edited by brotan: Jun 22 2012, 02:20 PM |
