i just thought of this question, let's say i cant get EB fixed in any SC. after endless hopeless ding-dong here and there from SC to SC again, so i send it to repair in workshop outside. then how would proton voids the warranty? it would be void if ONLY THEY KNOW right?

the air filter, how much is it? void warranty?

complain to COSE sure they look into it more closely

Just replace air filter with Redline, brand writing & rubber frame look low quality compare with previous K&N & HKS material & finishing(at previous car). Still not feeling any major improvement.

I'd ordered redline as well..see wat happens

be prepare to service your Throttle body often.. metal mesh filter only use for performance, or track.. the filterration is worst than simota..new one ofcoz feel power, but for long term?.. think wisely..

wah, is it? thanks for telling rclxms.gif then i would need clean the throttle body interval lo

since its turbocharge so when the engine inhales a dirt it will effect the compressor fin unit first.

if the dirt  is smaller it have more access to affect your intercooler-> TB ->and later on your engine. so,better watch out your turbine condition. a single crack or patah of the compressor fin(affected by gross dirt or bendasing) can lead to unbalanced propelling so the effect is ...disaster

thanks for the very much info...once i get the racechip installed in near future i can monitor the boost bar and other components smile.gif

but seriously, i get better FC with the mesh air cleaner, town driving only (pj-kl) i hit 430km (once every weekend morning i tekan to 180km/h frm kota to damansara tol)

So far what have you upgraded?
How about cosmetic wise? If got share picture here la smile.gif
I want to mod but at the same time thinking about warranty sad.gif
Did  Eb came with rear anti roll bar?

Edit: alignment and balancing no void warranty
*
the only 1 thing that i'd upgraded is the air filter/cleaner to metal mesh kind of type..it wont increase any HP/Torque but it cuts off the power lag which i think most of us EB owners had experienced..frm my experience.

cosmetic wise not really knee to it, all standard. maybe just maybe next 2 years i'll change the rims/tyre. smile.gif

Not sure whether the EB came with anti roll bar, unless some ppl here had installed Ultra Racing products?

If you plan to get extra from your EB take a look here! Plug and Play RaceChip => https://www.facebook.com/racechipchiptuningMY?flyingspaghettimonster=ts&fref=ts

problem 1 solved..the other I think I haf to live wit it. there are lots of issue but haf to be consistent to make report/complain to proton. thts the only way.

below rm100k exora is the best option. but sometimes I think of it we dun haf a choice. I wont elaborate on it thts another topic. but yeah exora its the best mpv for me rite now.

I tried a few still the same

I thought maybe it is due to the channel that we choose?

Put some grounding cable for your batt and car engine. Think this is worth a try or cheapest way to try or unless you had already done so? No harm either way putting the grounding cables.

Check the tube head whether it is tighten properly or else change to a metal tube head.

Do not over tighten the tube head as it will also result of leakage.

how much ? how about the power? fuel consmptin?.. smile.gif planngi to install one later

Power definitely can feel it is smoother and better performance. Tested can reach 190kmh can go somemore but dun dare la. Also tested to Genting, was using D all the way from Genting Tol to Gotong Jaya effortless climb. From Gotong Jaya to peak using L can fly. All this climb i contrl the RPM at 3000rpm. Did not exceed more the 3k rpm.

Fuel Consumption is better in terms of you driving normally (no heavy feet) around town area compare the last time. I got an extra 25km since i had installed the racechip.

Well, i don't really get the numbers as advertise on the paper for CFE.

Highest peak i can get is 160nm and 110hp on the road. Use ODBII + TorqueNm apps for the diagnostic not sure how accurate are the readings.

Anyone with the similar setup?
