Guys.. i think its time for me to change my piping ...
my putra is in STOCK .. and been running for 330k km ... Overhauled a year ago. I wanted to keep it STOCK as possible, but i do think there is a lot carbon deposit after such a long run.

What is the original piping size ?
and what is the recommended piping size to upgrade ??
planning to keep the muffler ori also
*
upgrade to 2', original maybe 1.5.. same with wira 1.6 maybe.. yup i done wht u r planning bro.. its quite ok setup if ur engine a bit high flow (not like turbos haha)

high flow NA engine izzit need to use big oval muffler s-flow(like oem wira muffler) or straight flow muffler (also oval n big type, almost same size with wira oem muffler) ?
if turbo engine sure need straight flow right? if NA with high flow engine how?
my car currently use 2' piping use ori route with oem rear muffler (no mid-bullet)..

Not flames, "sparks". If misfiring, sure got loud sound. And the sparks came after the car slowing down to idle.

spark like how? i've seen a muffler sound like "pongg2" which its not a flame, its more like small xplosion at the muffler tip.. c it at toyota celica mechanical version (which come in 1.8 vvti if not mistaken) while following it..

Bro, i'm currently driving honda city 2009. I been using the K&N drop-in air filter for my. I'm planning to change the intake system to Open pod type. What i'm afraid now is is open pod filter suitbale for auto tranny car like mine? Afraid that instead of improvement, it lose powerusing it.

Note that there is no other modification of exhaust system done on this car so far.

Please advice. TQ
*
open pod will make ur engine noisier then before, why wanna change to open pod? i think K&N filter replacement is better enough.. summore auto tranny, scared u will lose a bit torque bro..

to use open pod u must combine with suitable extractor, piping, n muffler system.. if not there's no use in using open pod.. intake n exhaust need to synchronised, then u have better setup compare standard..

Hi all sifus out there, I currently got wira 1.6 auto efi, how can I mod the exhaust system to gain better pickup and save fuel?? Currently is stock system wif 4-2-1 output. My location is Johor bahru, any reputable workshop I can visit??
*
try add another mid-bullet to increase back-pressure inside ur piping.. for NA engine, back-pressure is important especially NA with auto tranny.. wanna save fuel just control ur right foot bro..

Is it possible that I just change the extractor and add in bullet only? I dun wanne change my muffler coz I dun wan it to be noisy and attract the authorities.
*
can why not.. last time i did change piping to 2' size with standard muffler n 1 spiral bullet at mid.. extractor stock coz wanna keep the normal response for daily use.. usually change extractor can increase exhaust flow which benefit for mid to high rpm, but sacrifice a bit at low end torque..

Guys..sorry if this might be out of topic..

Whenever i accelerate my pedal to floor..there is extreme loud sound coming from below front left passenger side..It is extremely loud.
This is not engine noise i can confirm because the RPM are not that high..

Is this normal due to pedal to floor or some signs of exhaust leaks?
If yes,which part of it?
*
can u describe the sound?

Hi sifu2 sekalian. I'm planning to do exhaust upgrade. Got 1 question to ask though.

Is it of any use to add midbox / bullet? Because my pomen suggested cam-pro engine better add 1 mid box. Better have restriction.

4-2-1 Supercircuit header ---> Oval midbox ---> Straight flow muffler

Overall piping 2"
*
I think 2' quite big for ur engine, last time even using 4G63 NA singlecam 2' piping is adequate, more then that would make it lost power..

Hi guys..

I have a perodua axia, im suffering from poor low end torque.. Accelerating 0-40 quite troublesome sometimes. Viva has better acceleration

I am currently using works drop in filter. Really help alot in acceleration but i feel much more can be done.

Im planning to remove the airbox and run an air duct from the front grill to the filter.. I also plan to wrap the extractors with thermal wrap because the air duct might be very close to the extractor, i dont want it to be heating up the air. My car really runs very smooth n nice during morning n late evenings. Or any weather that has temp below 30 degrees..

Currently running on stock rims... Maybe one day upgrade to 15" light Weight one.

For exhaust. I have zero knowledge... But i might wanna mod it soon as well. I dont mind a little bit of bassy sound, but not those really loud like racing cars, my neighbors will rape me.

Do you guys have other ideas that i can do to increase acceleration?

Thanks all sifu
*
in comparing axia accelerate with viva of course viva is better, smaller n lighter with responsive engine compare with EEV engine which tuned to get good FC.. hence to improve ur car acceleration u need bigger torque..
to increase torque there's only 2 method that efficient,
- forced induction (turbocharged or supercharged)
- bigger capacity engine
other then that is rather difficult.. correct me if i'm wrong here notworthy.gif

Its waste of money in my opinion, ecu are adapted to save fuel. No matter how hard play with intake and exhaust, ecu will just re-learn. What u will feel is just placebo effect or maybe 1-2% increments
*
of course with engine tuning.. if not u will not get the benefit from the modification..
eg e-manage?
