I think this is a more tasteful mod



I read one article a few days ago showing how it's practically impossible for a 12 volt system to drive a fan which can act as a turbo/supercharger due to the massive power requirements of such a device, with actual calculations such as the power generated by the device (a proper turbo/supercharger) and the limitations of the car electric system. It's an excellent read but I can't find that page in my history Never mind, I found an alternative but it's not as clear. So simply put, a 12v computer fan is not gonna make any difference to the air pressure in your intake manifold.

oh. crap. err. what that suppose to mean?

As far as I know, the Surbo is not even a spinning fan. It is suppose to be an array of fins that "spins" the air as it enters the throttle body, supposedly creating a "vortex" that will increase powah.

These reading mana accurate. These are tested under room temperature mah.
I'm no scientist but when burn inside engine got different temperature & pressure.
Actual reading could be vary.

Hey there guys. Dad just booked an FLX SE 1.6CVT for Mum, will be getting it by this week I think. I'll probably be taking over her old Merdeka promo Saga and use it for a couple of months before I change it next year to something I like.
Will have to go home next week to teach her how to drive an auto! Hahahaha
She's so used to manual, she never wanted anything but a stick shift! Forced her to take the auto since she does daily driving to and from work and frequently runs errands, plus she's past her 50's.
Oh, and nice to meet u guys!

You might need to learn to drive a CVT yourself too

I find auto tranny soooo complicated to drive The only letters I recognise are R and N. What does P, D, L and the rest do?

Didn't read carefully earlier. And I found this. Really, really sceptical. If it's so good the inventor can patent it and make $$$, and it would be standard feature on every car.

P = POWER

D = DONUTS

L = LAUSAI

Hahaha, trust me when I say that's the least of my problems.
Was reading your blog earlier. That's some really good honest insight I must say.
Anyway, we have auto cars at home, its just that she's really stubborn. We've been trying to force her to learn how to drive an auto, but she'll keep giving excuses. This time no chance, if she wants to be mobile, she's gotta learn!

So fast. 1 week! What color?

The red one, Fire Red, or something like that right?. Oh from Johor Bahru by the way, which is probably why. The car is already there, its just a matter of settling the payment. Made the booking a week back or something like that, plus, no loan application or anything, which is probably why we got it fast. Well that's the best reason I can think of at least.

waa?? mine no sound liao...my dad also lazy to ask also..oni bank call me last fri ago...

I see. I just book ytd. They said not sure can get when. Maybe a month or more.

Oh yeah, if you guys don't mind me asking, what do you think I should ask for as a free gift? I mean, steering lock and umbrellas are probably standard, plus the car is already tinted in stock condition right? Is it any good though, or would any of you recommend replacing it? She'll be the one driving the car, and her hospital has a shaded car park anyway.

walk into showrrom
see car, molest here and there. go for a test drive.
SA promise ini itu sana sini
submit everything for loan
loan approve, sign papers
wait a week, call SA. SA say minus ini if wan get faster.
wait another week, call SA, SA say minus itu if wan get faster
car arrive and get only sana sini at the end.

typical scenario in a proton showroom. lol

Yup, BEST reason!!
CASH is KING!!! As alwaz...

Can check here for standard gift. click me .

Oo. Crap. Im screwed.

for a dealer/seller, there's only one reason to give that discount/freebies but they can create a thousand reasons to take back the discount/freebies.

I also can do that but those are just unethical practice. I willing to earn less, as long as my conscience is clear.

Hey thanks for that man

Added on June 19, 2012, 10:41 pmYeah, well my Mum's SA just told her to list what she wants. He did mention that window tint was free, so don't need to ask for that, which is why I just needed clarification earlier. I think the smart tag would be a good thing though.
