My first post in this thread after an agonizing 18 pages... haha

First of all, THE Campro DOES NOT HAVE CPS AND VIM... like everybody in this world knows EXCEPT NAVIGATOR  blink.gif

I would also like to point out, if the campro engine can achive 160+hp during testing, then tell me why the R3 guys didnt utilise this during their recent rally project car which produce ard 140-150hp?

Abt the throttle body thingy, the Campro engine is controlled by a "Drive By Wire" throttle. that means that the accelerator padal and the throttle body is conected by a wire (through a computer box (EMS)) and not a cable.

About the flat throttle curve. Yes, it is possible, but not through tuning only. it can be done through proper calculations on the camshaft profiling (like the one done on the R3 car). Didnt think they would be crazy enuf to use the stock torque curve would you?

Abt hijauan, I have known a few ppl who has tuned this car there. What i wanna say may offend but... DEAL WITH IT!
Ask any layman after they change engine oil, gear oil, coolant, new tuning (will go into that later), and of course some services, how will the car feel?
The answer.... of course more powerful.
With the added help of X1R which is a friction reducer, i am sure the engine will be more willing to rev. So pls be the judge on this tuning method.

And speaking of tuning, the PDT2000 is a tuning gadget for the EMS system for the Campro engine. But being able to use one before, i would like to point out that other than recalibrating the throttle position, the idle timing, security codes, airbags
function and abs.(apart from fault codes)... the gadget can only display relavent parameters about the engine... so i still dunno how hijauan can TUNE the EMS. The EMS can only be tuned if u have a developers unit from siemens.

Being a Gen2 owner myself. i would like to say this engine is nothing fantastic. Yes, it is powerful (mine is moded of couse but i will not talk about it here), responsive.... but only in the higher range (3500-6500). yes it can go 210km/h... but not fairly easily. 4th gear can make 190 though.

About the car (nothing to be proud of,interior quality sucks)
Why i bough the car.... the handling rocks... thumbup.gif

So plsssss. don bash me ok sweat.gif
