LCP...I recommend LCP as first mod. IMO, this plug and play mod is an essential requirement to minimize the major weakness of PE.

Coz changing the engine is not worth it.....LCP only remedy part of the engine weakness, it does not "strengthen" the low end torque to "powerful" level, just pushing it up to "acceptable" level. Even then my City still beat the hell up of it in the low end torque without even trying hard.

So Timbuktu it goes... (again on second note, my well taken care of PE still deemed ok for its price, not much major problem.....YET (this keyword is the reason why KKW switching vehicle only at 3 years). It does not generate confidence on the long term "problem free" since lots of parts they used are pretty cheapskate feel...again at this price.

Oh....I'm still sceptical abt ALL other mods, even drop in filter. Only LCP.......but then again that is the only mod I install.....besides the stiff ring.

Nope. Won't improve FC. Engine vibration? Depends whether your buttdyno is sensitive enough or not. brows.gif

Vibration is increased, engine noise also especially acceleration. If you're driving an auto tranny, the low end torque improvement coupled with much faster gear change increased the low end torque to tolerable level (meaning gaga and turtle won't be able to jumped your queue anymore if you accelerate to close the gap). Massive increased satisfaction level. Reach destination faster to boot... tongue.gif

Auto M-line? Without rear disc brakes and 1.6 brake pump, your brakes are gonna suck anyway. Change brake pads, that's the cheapest solution to a bit more bite from your brakes. Otherwise you can go the expensive way, splurge 5-6k on a full set front & back disc brake (halfcut), or up to 10k for a set of Wilwood front & rear oversized disc brakes. whistling.gif

Here for more info if you have the moolah:

Click Me. Wilwood matafakaaaaa

Come to think of it it's quite cheap for anyone who need a boost in braking. 3 pairs of brake pads with conversion front brakes to 4 pots and oversized disc. Worth it. hmm.gif

Brake pads for wilwood/high performance around RM 250 per pair = RM 750. Brake rotor already RM 600 minimum for a pair.
