Better redo it bro, unless u going for stainless steel pipe mod.
Cable ties are to hold the shape from expansion, just dun over tighten it will do. wink.gif

The increase in performance is really noticeable. Just worry that there was leakage between hose and the clamp, so u get even worse performance.

Thanks. I reckon so but now too much time in forum and mod car already. Work getting busy and my missus is raising her eyebrows already.

Also noted that putting the hoses back have to be careful to follow position at the turbine, intercooler and intake as twisting a little will change the shape of the hose.

I have done the engine mounting mod also and it does improve as well. People's expectations need to be managed though. Some might think complete NVH elimination.

I also get the same sign before engine start in Preve, in my Kelisa, wira,...nothing to be worried....

If 2 slopes, think you can add some oil already....
*
All warning lights come on is good before or during startup as ECU is calibrating and you know the light is working.

Any warning light don't go off after startup or come on when driving is shit already.

If engine cold or at least 15 minutes off then you take oil reading and it is low, need to top up but then really need to find out why is there an oil loss in the first place.

Oil leak easy fix at SC. Burning oil, all the best at SC, we shall be with you there in spirit and mind.

maybe, but not with the CVT

So easy to get power from FI as compared to NA. CVT rated up to 22kgs only right?

If on wheel not so bad, if on engine, sob sob. All the power no use if GB fail unless change GB.

Thank you very much for the valuable information. Anyway I will make an appointment with the SC to solve the problems. Hopefully the SC will entertain and solve the problems. I don't whether it helps if I call Proton I Care 03-8026999!

Sorry man if I confuse you with long winding story. Old man here.

Perhaps you want to take video while driving and show the Service Advisor.

:-), for track, yes with 6 speed manual, but on the road, too many carbon that will hurt the environment :-),it will be banned. But who knows in the future for s2000, but need atleast 5 years homogolation rules, by then, i think, there will a newer engine. R3 is more focusing on na racing development than turbo charged one. Until now, r3 s2000 supercharge replica been put on halt. I dunno whether drb will release it or just scap it. Pity the r3 team.
*
The S2000 is using Renault engine same as Waja 1.8 but race tuned. Same as in BTCC last time. NA with 280whp right?

For track and real driving always better NA.

That's the thing. My driveway dont have any oil spot. Mileage only 4.5k since last service. Using SemiSyn btw.
Should i be worried? or should i wait for net service?

I think no issue with early service. Answered my Q already. hahaha.

Enjoy it bro.

I have done several mods below to improve NVH of the vehicle.

1. Engine Mounting Mod
2. Soundproof (Roof, Floor, 4 doors, front bonnet)

This should serve me for many years to come, and perhaps change the tyre to something more quiet soon. wink.gif

Esc is enabled by default n no light. When u off the traction control by a long press, u actually disable it.

On normal circumstances, the light will only on when esc being activated

MC5 serves me well. Have done 5K on it. Initial run in of 500km noisy and worrysome. After that it is good in the dry and does not feather when pushed. Or is it the TC? Wanted V12 but the only place that had it then in the size gave me a ridiculous low trade in for my 1K Bax2. Good aquaplan resistance but it ain't no PS3 in the wet corners and that yellow light on the meter panel will flicker without really pushing.
