I got the IMPROVE lowered spring from EA Autoworks.. Drex and his team spent 3 hours correcting and rectifying the absorbers.. Dedicated bunch I must say... My ride is lowered by an estimated 2 inch already...

Do share your experience with the bars and the Digital Engine Optimizer. Interested to know.

I can't describe exactly because if I were to describe it in here, it's going to be very cliche.. Extremely Satisfied with the Ultra Racing bars.. solid cornering, and responsive. I brought my friend there and he wanted to change his HU, but after persuading him to change the front strut (he drives a forte also) he straight away was impressed.. And after I got my Rear Anti Roll Bar Fixed.. he was at the back sit while i was test driving my forte, when we went back to EA Autoworks after a round of test drive, he straight away grabbed the Rear Anti Roll Bar also..

Action is louder than words to be exact.. Really worth it..

For the Digital Engine Optimizer, Super smooth transmission when on ECO mode.. Awesome driving sensation. My friend also getting the DEO next wink.gif

Damage was RM8XX, (Have to contact EA Autoworks for the price thou), Smooth and better acceleration is noticeable indeed. Gonna try power mode next time when i have the chance.

do you mean electronic throttle controller ?

user posted image

So its confirmed both 1.6 & 2.0 also driven by cable then  thumbup.gif  thumbup.gif  thumbup.gif  thumbup.gif
Well, its not a ETC, ETC just gives you the "sensation" of the throttle. While DEO manipulates the data and changes the amount of air intake etc.. its a half piggyback back as well.. If you want the REAL thing, get a DEO.... ETC later tongue.gif

1.6 6 Speed is Drive by wire I think, while the 4 speed is by cable.. (need to double check on this)

Hi Guys, just want to give a review for Mr Edwin Loh ( Lyn ID : Motorman), my sales agent which did a marvelous job for me. I just got my car yesterday ( Forte 1.6SX White ). Edwin has been a great support to me, his patience is really a virtue as he helped me from the day that I enquired ( I asked from many sellers including KS LOH lol ) and since his package was the best and KS LOH was outstation that time, I chose Edwin to be my SA. He is able to get an approval on my case, though it took slightly longer but since my case is special ( Just started working with parents retired and siblings working out of states ), he managed to get my dad as guarantor with me as hirer. He answers all my question and enquiries ( I ask alot ), and for those who needs a SA like that, he is the go to guy. Now I am enjoying my forte, so far so good. My parents are very happy we are able to get the car. And of course, I am a very happy man as well. Again, thumbs up for Edwin. My highest gratitude to you. And this is my essay for you smile.gif I hope you did not miss this. LOL!

Congrats! Now its time to mod your car ;P laugh.gif
