IAFM and IAFM+ has the same compression ratio (10:1) and displacement. CFE has a lower compression ratio (8.9:1) and slightly lower displacement (lower stroke), not to mention strengthened internals to withstand the higher output.

You can't simply bolt on the BorgWarner turbo on the IAFM+ and call it a CFE. The engine block is the same, the internals are different.

I mean, cfe is build based on iafm+, not iafm. That is why iafm+ is different with iafm. Despite the compression ratio iafm n iafm+ is same, but it has different characteristic. Cheers. But doest matter, that is not what we cares, what we care is iafm+ should be better thn iafm. Im using cfe and I fully satisfied with the engine. My mom crv also not perform like cfe 1.6. Harap je vtec 2.0, tp lembap je.

Preve MT method is release clutch let the move forward then press oil

release clutch and press oil same time the "over smart ECU" will do engine braking (waste your oil) kononnya to ensure smooth pickup slow like siput

Everyone who intend to get Preve MT pls test drive it during working/lunchtime hours
and try some hilly slopes. If U can handle it can Buy, this Preve MT ECU profiles not the same as others Proton MT

Confirm u feel less power than MT Saga BLM on slope

never heard different car have different MT shifting... though is depend on driver skill and preferences and road condition...

there have some skill called "rev match" as throttle up the RPM according to car speed & gearing while releasing cluching...
it is good as lesser wear and tear and clutch plate too and there almost dont have "shift shock" feeling (no engine brake or no sudden-boost) if skillful with MT enough...

anyway, poor AT (such as proton savvy) will serious "shift shock" with engine brake too which supposing to sudden-boost feeling as i floored the pedal from low speed to high speed

guess u driving AT? bcos i have myvi MT 2007, still managed to get average 17km/h around Klang Valley...
about RM57 @ 30L for 450-500km...

of course la
BLM gearbox has near disctance gear ratio from each gear ma
that why at the end 12024000rpm

maybe due to throttle delay

i guess our modern ECU should have the capabilities to differentiate the car speed and RPM level while shifting, it it just same like drive a manual as Kinitos described...

but MT should have the room to reduce "shift shock" as we can play both pedals to control the car depend on road condition rather than 1 pedal only which have limited choices as controlled by ECU 100%...

anyway, definitely i will buy preve no matter how if there have CFE manual with premium spec...
i still prefer to "control" the car rather than car "control" me...

yeah
that why i looking preve manual also

IAFM+ have different camshaft and different pistons compared to IAFM, mainly to accomodate the CVT, so you're right that characteristics are different

but say no to CPS...
even current Exora standard also equipped with CFE...

why anti CPS???waja cps mt not bad leh

yup AT one.. average 17km/h speed u still can get so low FC?

DVVT + 5MT

>< AT so makan fuel... i drive savvy MT at KL normally 50 can go 300++ like tat only le.. but is stop and go traffic la..

my BLM MT in KL CITY also 11km/l+ only

typo, should be 17km/L

that why dont go for normal 4AT as it consume some petrol there... it is better go for CVT instead...

CPS old tech lo and lack of power
sure have the reasons for new exora standard equip with CFE now even though CPS previously...

later preve hatch back got CFE 6 speed manual
