QUOTE(BartS @ Aug 9 2012, 12:47 PM) Ya lor. With manual, there's more control over the corners. By first roundabout, car cannot be seen anymore  Reminds me of few days ago when on a rainy day, I encountered Evolution on the way up Genting. Saw him come in the rear view mirror. Move over to let him pass. After that, dunno go where already.  preve got manual mode or not?

D mode is for economy. Pedal to the floor but RPM is reluctant to rise.
Pro: Low RPM, wide throttle opening therefore less pumping loss but good fuel economy. Cons: Pickup a bit slow, less responsive to sudden acceleration.
Mode S, pedal to the metal not many cars can even keep up. Cons: S mode means "Suck Fuel but Syiok" hehe

Want to discuss about Preve's torque curve. After 4K rpm the torque should dip down but the other day when I was playing with paddle shift, when I reach 5K rpm, the car suddenly had tremendous amount of pull (torque). Very much more than when it was at 4K. Had to downshift quickly as the revs were climbing too fast. Has anyone else experienced the same?

Try rev to 5K again, see if the torque increase still occur This post has been edited by dares: Aug 9 2012, 01:03 PM

Am thinking maybe my car isn't tuned correctly as max torque does not appear to be where it's supposed to be. Anyway, I hope we'll be getting a remap after this month's end.
