Does a Carb neeb to be retuned after
1. Air Filter Upgrade
2 Spark plug / Plug Cables upgrade
3. Pumping Fuel With aditives? (eg: Vpower)

Read around If u dont retune the carb, there will not be any diffrence.  sweat.gif

On another case,
I tried filling my car with V-power the last 3-4 fills.
I noticed, The Engine knocks More, and I get Very bad mileage (like 40km less). As a lot of people used it and they said its very good and gives em extra mileage..
Im wondering if The engine needs to be re-tuned to accomodate the fuel?

Now im back to normal Esso/mobil.. Engine Knock is not that much.  sweat.gif

Im quite confuse? You want extra power on your engine or you want your car to be fuel effiecient?

Definetly, you cant get both of that~~! icon_rolleyes.gif
You can only choose one,perfomance or FC?

Nono..just a curious question.
Cause after putting in V-power (which everyone claimed it gived better mileage) My FC went up considerably high..

So i was thinking maybe the carb needs to be re-tuned to accept Fuels with additives like these?

Definetely need to be re-tune. Most of sports aif filter let more air into your car.Thus,your current air-fuel ratios is not efficient anymore.
