80whp to 110whp requires some effort on NA. At least yours is a manual, my lousy AT with only 70% power transfer efficiency, wait long long for NA mods to reach 110whp. Hence I'm actually quite impressed with firestorm, the regular firestorm is very value for money, super sized ones pushes it over the border.
Mileage is now 14800KM.
Changing to iridium is noticeable for me. Revs are very smooth all the way up. When there's chance, I'll get another 0-100kph reading from my car with Iridium spark plugs.
nope. mine is auto. same as you. well, it is just a matter of target. 110whp is very very sufficient for me. if can I don't mind increasing all my torque without increasing my hp. let's say I am now at 70hp, i might need to do some mods to get to 90hp. just like what hammie did, his persona is 108hp IINM. stock is 90hp for manual. so i suppose his gain is around 18hp. I personally think that the correct way of tuning and modding will give the correct power/torque increase. not like any modding products in the market also throw in. For example, during last nite TT the so called mini turbo which is a waste of money proven. So, do consider before buying from the mini turbo product from "aisketul".
speaking about iridium, yesterday, SiuYi mentioned about the usage of platinum and iridium plug compatibality with NGV. u better clarify with him as detonation will cause your engine to blow one day.

but can the campro engine internal stand the turbo for long distance driving? lata drive from johor to penang thn on the way explode
unless you are full throttling at the highway, somehow is ok. cruising on highway somehow have less damage than driving in city IMO. Due to wacking from standstill to high speed all the time, the engine become even hotter, while cruising on highway u have constant amount of wind cooling the engine also. if worry about long term, it is best to upgrade everthing to forged one. as proton did in their CFE.

Speedworks said Campro can withstand up to 0.7 bar boost on stock internals even if whacked all the way from KL to Penang. If long distance reliability is not a concern, the internals can take 0.8-0.9 bar of boost.
if u don't intend to use the car for long, high boosting also no problem. but then, camproturbo.com actually have been TC for many years edi. he actually teaches how to drive properly to ensure your car to be undamaged.
