Just curious, why many Fortezen like to mod their stock car, is it will be more expensive to do that ?
The car is worth for money, if mod here & there, the car will consider expensive. then straight away buy more expensive car. Any comment ??
*
My 2 cents

Modding and make up (accessorising) to me is 2 different thing... Most of the so called modding understood by you are merely fall under accessorising... Which is to my understanding the cost is not like a bomb...

While to those extreme modders, it is merely for self satisfaction... those poeple who buy expensive GTR still mod their car what... brows.gif brows.gif brows.gif

The harder they get, the more unstable the stock tires be... I'm so regret not to change tire when I change my rim last time... Now waiting for my bonus before I can change it... This Silverstone really unrealiable... Especially when you use a lightweight rim, you can really feel the grip is not there...

if you really research on electronics, vs is actually good which it served as a voltage stablizer to supply stable voltage suppy to our car, IMHO worth a try.

Thanks bro for the input... Yes, I've done some reading and it does make me want to try it...

PB is a throttle control... Will give you the link later... But I read somewhere in FB now they have throttle controller with auto cruise... Might consider this instead of PB...

QUOTE(vv001 @ Feb 25 2013, 06:56 PM)
if i am given to list priority on the improvement i will do

1. voltage stabilizer
2. firestorm
3. potent booster

Hi, I have the following engine mods:

1. K&N drop-in filter
2. VS
3. Firestorm

If you want to do the mods, I suggest K&N filter + Firestorm for better driveability at low revs though it is not really "quantum leap" performance but compared to stock, a little bit better.

Forget VS, you will not be able to feel any difference. Got "conned" on that but then buy already hopefully battery can last longer.

The next mod I am going to do is to change to 16" rims & new tyres because I think this will give greater effect than mods 1~3 that I have done.

Mods 1~3 is like taking some Red Bull, Vitamins or Brands Essence of Chicken - expensive for a little boost. Changing to lighter rims is like wearing a pair of lightweight running shoes compared to wearing a pair of heavy safety workboots while running.  biggrin.gif

biggrin.gif yup its a throttle controller

and there are lots of brand out there in the market, make sure to test it out before buying, or you end up paying more but minimal effect

and just to make sure NO WIRE Tapping or cutting or whatsoever during installation biggrin.gif

Thanks for the advice... Sure... Will do...
