I have 2500 mileage already. it will be slightly better only. Forte is Fuel sucker. The only thing I dont like is the FC. Many peoples did a lot of thing including change the RIMS, add K&N filter to improve the FC.

The SA told me you only will see the significant improvement after 5K mileage.

I am from Penang too, mine currently hit about 9.5-10Litre / 100KM. Drive with very light foot already... Like ah pondan...

What is your average speed from your meter?

Mine is 27 or 28 km per hour.

Change exhaust? Can u please explain more? Out of curiosity,how much did u spend for all the mods to your car?

that burned one is 1.6...
he bought another one..this time 2.0...

yes, try shell; i have good experience with shell as well. mine 1.6sx (10K mileage now) is doing around 1.65 - 1.7; 50 HW, 50 City. full tank gives me around 550KM

I'm using it now 10w-30 semi...

bold fonts maybe will help for your fuel save.

Mythelogy Lightened Crank Pulley - this sounds cool although I donno what is it. 

I am thinking to get original KIA logo. This one is not original one.. Make the car no class.

Since your car void warranty .. no problem. 

But in case you want to fix something critical, better go back to KIA SC. But make sure good SC.

I have the experience with Perodua, I sent to outside workshop just want to save money, but they install cheap spare part for me make my car like a shit. Later sent to lousy Perodua SC. He told me is my car is like that..
At last I sent back to good SC, quite far and it fixed my problem forever.

Can you give me your boss contact number? I will ask him get for me with stuff price. can or not?

Yeah lah .. That's the problem. We need the authorized stamp. But I really admire you. You have modified your car a lot and you can maintain your car by yourself.

Just wondering if your car still under warranty since you have modified so many thing? If warranty void, dont care about stamp chop already.

Long time ago when I drove Satria, I sent to SC for the 1st free 3 service.
After that I bring the booklet to stamp chop shop and ask the shop to create 1 rubber stamp exactly like the SC chop.
Since then, I service outside & chop myself until I sold my car.
Even no major warranty claimed but the new buyer was so excited when he saw my booklet if fully service by SC.
But now dunno can do or not coz their system online each others.
Also during my study, my friend duplicate the clinic rubber stamp & used it on receipt (own printing) to get MC.
Very useful & been used by a lot of us.

2.0? If u worry about tired of 2.0 so soon later on, find a 2.4 half cut instead..lolz..i bet u will own the most powerfull Forte in Malaysia 

Just sent to car to pasang mud guard to reduce wheel water splash. The boss explained many thing to me and looks like many things need to be fixed to make the car perfect.

Also notice this round full tank fuel consumption is higher. Around 9.8L/100km compare to last tank 9.5L/100km - Driver speed average 27km/h (stucked everywhere).. This is expected because I vroom when necessary.

Also, I just pump Caltex ron95 and want to see how it perform.
I felt like the car is quite heavy, so I pumped 230 psi for front wheel and 220 psi for rear wheel. And feel like very light now I hope this is correct and no harm to my car. Please advice.

back from 10k service, about an hour. RM170++ saja with 20% discount.
SK SC very good, help me to adjust my handbrake even without told them to do so (but I should tell them earlier as the handbrake is not tight enough from the first day). besides that help me clean engine although i told them no need car wash.

Where u saw me  

Your car is almost perfect already. I am not dare to suggest anything. you are master guru here.
One of the thing he suggest to me is set up Qmax LV Voltage Stabilizer. Do you know is this good for Forte?

where you go it fix ? Plug and play or need drill hole to the body ? How much izzi ? Can share some picture ?

i think need to have TT soon   

i dont think it will be that cheap, coz the only sticker I know that gives off a brushed metal effect is 3M Scotchprint Metal series sticker. That sticker itself cost around RM25-35 psf.
