Oic..is that a R3 exhaust system shown in the pictures? hmm.gif

Must get one already... drool.gif  *poison*..*poison*.. laugh.gif

Yeaps that's the full system rm700++ will get you, why not? cap ayam extractor 150-300, mid box also 150++, muffler 200++ plus workmanship, close to 700+, and further don't forget buying separate means you have welding joint all over the place, this is factory welded and assembled

If they stopped it is becuase it doesn't work, why put something that doesn't give good power and FC, doesn't make much sense

I think 1000 should be able to cover the cost, assuming one panel is 200+ which i think is already quite expensive

WOW! My Gen2 is also first batch. Do you have a heavy foot or whut? Anyway, my fuel consumption is about... how to explain... RM50 = 310km (give or take 10km).

From what I heard the ECU setting will make acceleration slightly better. But if you have a heavy foot, nothing in the world can help you save fuel. Question, do you sent your car for regular servicing?

Also, to anyone who knows - is it possible to 'upgrade' the CamPro engine to include the CPS?
*
Yes possible but too expensive.

Annoying or not really depends on you and what you perceive as annoying, to me it's acceptable but to you it may be too loud already.

bro...

the header doesnt really contribute much to this noisy sound...

use any header with a midbox and an s-flow n u wont get any noise but good pickup n good top end...

use any header with straight flow n suffer from the loud noise but better pickup but u lose ur top end...

use any header with a bullet instead of a midbox n u get good pickup, good top end but slightly noisy sound...

rajin2 turun tt teamcampro or gen2club n there u could see the difference...

if u want opinion well u've got my testimony above as i've used almost all setup mentioned...
*
Actually i have to disagree, the headers/extractors do contribute a lot to the noise. You can hear my extractors first before the muffler when hard revving.

that is bcos when u ditch the cat con the flow is better thus increase abit the sound....prefer the revving than the noise of empty midbox/muffler.... tongue.gif

take jenal's tips into consideration....if u want no noise dont change the exhaust system.....smile.gif

Also the original extractor is made of heavy cast iron plus the cat con, dampens sound a lot.

berapa kena bayar is crank shaft patah?

Crankshaft alone with bearings i think is RM2700++, then crank position wheel and crank sensor gurantee smashed to bits. And if the crankshaft completely broke off like in nex car, pistons were also damaged, from the metal bits, conrod bearings also damaged. All in all i think prepare minimum 5K if only crankshaft crack, if broke off maybe 6-7K?

and did proton deny this that it has nothing to do with them?

they should explain on this matter..shouldn't they?

this is very serious here due to alot of member ady kena
*
I think none of the owners are interested yet to bring this to proton at the moment, since it will take a lot of patience and also money to fight them with this. Just run the numbers through your head how many campro powered cars would be affected, all gen2, waja campro, neo, BLM, basically any car with a campro engine on it. They sure as hell are not going to let them win at all.

I agree that certain modding should not void the warranty on the engine

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


But at the least, I also believe that the owner of the affected Gen2 should "list" the modification that they've added to their Gen2  tongue.gif .

Some mods could've been the root cause, like a poorly tuned adj. cam or perhaps the extractor installed by some technician's apparentice?  laugh.gif

Or worst case scenario ... Proton themselves doesnt know of this problem ...  shocking.gif  shocking.gif  shocking.gif

None of the mods involved internal modifications, all of which are just add-ons, if the engine can't even handle that it's a real piece of sh1t. EVen if their cars have been to the track and used for spirited driving, a crankshaft doesn't crack at where it did and all at the same bloody place. At most the power of the engines would be 110hp which is according to proton spec is standard.

Does this means that the engine is being built using below-par material in an effort to cut-down cost?  sweat.gif 

or

Proton's failed QC as usual?  tongue.gif
Either way, there's no way to verify our engine externally; just have to take a wait-and-pray approach  cry.gif  cry.gif
*
What caused the failures is anyone's guess, Proton given the benefit of the doubt might not know of it themselves or they might we don't know. Either way modded or not the crank should be stronger since we have to rev high to get power out of the engine. The best thing of course is for them to do a trace of the affected ones and replace them with ones that have been tested to required specs.
