dexter...it all depends on ur rim choice...if u use a deep dish ones with a 'bibir' of cos it will look small...even for 15" u can make it look big by choosing a proper rims...let say advanti like R3 used will make it look big...my 16" last time some ppl oso think its a 17"...




for me if using a 17" with thick tyre oso no point...buruk jugak...x cukup garang

dovienya...the tick2 sound???hmmmm sometimes i heard sometime i dont so i dunno XD... as for the magnet, its an accessory from proton...u could hang ur staff ID there or anything that could stick to a magnet

mine now 15"...same pattern..

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...

yes if u dowan any noise, stick to ur ori cat con...

whatever header u use will produce those steel like noise when revving the engine...

still prefer it to be quieter? send it for wrap...it suppress the sounds a bit...

dexter - i didnt go to tc tt for a while...busy wor...

define performance...

u want pickup or top end?

aftermarket header + long bullet + everco s-flow

but make sure ur wallet is thick enuff to support ur power hunger

hotbits header u mean???

change to s flow muffler u get better top end...

the concept is like this ( i dunno how to explain in proper term so i just use my term...hahahahahahhahahah XD )

if u use a straight flow with a bullet, u've got better pickup because u have no restriction on ur exhaust back pressure something like that and the power burst is sudden but after certain RPM u started to feel the power loss earlier and u didnt get a good top end

if u use an s-flow with a bullet, u've got some restriction on ur exhaust backpressure...therefore the power burst is not that sudden and u still have some power reserved in the muffler box...so the power is being released constantly and you don't lose ur torque at an early RPM...so that's when u get ur top end...

anyway my suggestion is to try it urself...each car behaves differently than the others...it took me quite a while before finally satisfied with my current setup...

and you dont have to get a 1m bullet if u cant find it...a normal long bullet should be fine

all rims i bought at Hock Li shop in Kapar, Klang...

the shop is next to the famous Kedai Papan

definitely go there eat nasik ayam madu with limau ais...if going there with fren definitely order 2 nasik ayam...hahahahhahahahahh...

everco s-flow...

go to sunway tuners area, there's an everco 'house' there...ask for everco s-flow...on top of the muffler box there is a TopCat marking...price is RM250...if they ask higher u told them my friend from Gen2Club says its oni 250...

if u got friend in banting go there...cheaper...someone even get it for RM180...

GSR 1.8...

timing belt putus dgn crankshaft patah/crack is 2 different case le XD

poorly tuned acp(if u advance too much or pinking too much) and caused a pinking can lead to a piston crack...this is according to proton rnd people la...

some users of ACP has been using it for 2-3 years still no crankshaft putus...so no ACP didnt caused ur crankshaft to snap...

timing belt putus? use until 150000km can putus la...XD
