1. K&N Drop-in Air Filter
2. Pivot Stuffs e.g Mega Raizin, Raizin VS-E, Ignition Earth, Spark Earth, etc..
3. Large Snorkel
4. Change to aftermarket complete exhaust system e.g R3, TopCat
5. Denso/NGK Iridium Spark Plugs
6. Adjustable Fuel Pressure Regulator
7. Lightened Crank Pulley
8. Adjustable Cam Pulley
9. High performance Plug Cable & Ignition Coil

Anymore? tongue.gif

K&N drop-in air filter&performance sparks&cables is definitely on d list...but those voltage stabilizers; they doesnt bring any significant changes rite...

Is there anythin can be done with d stock ECU? i find d ratios for AT campro really sucks...d torque dip... sweat.gif

since my dad seldom revv d car gao gao (or sometimes even left d car undriven 4 few days)..felt d car already like a turtle... shud i get a bottle of those d'carbonizer/etc to 'cleanse' d engine? laugh.gif

Momo + 1hp as you step harder ...lol

for crank pulley i might try this http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=828778
plan to change that next month. Is in KL , u may pm the seller also.  I bought air filter from him before brand redline RM130, recommended. biggrin.gif

extractor they all suggest use branded 1, hoho~~ muffler putus, exactly same like mine.!!...  catalyst converter changed? change to what d.. taken out d? or change another new catcon. Mine is auto, my setup is 4-2-1 hotbits to Gen2 original midbox to 1 rimus midbox(to replace catcon and maintain back pressure) then Sflow muffler.

Im going to install HPPC and Iridium and Coil this thursday. The voltage stabilizer, i was told vs has no significant different to performance, unless u play with amplifier/ headlamps those only install.

ECU as shazmn said,,,... no cure for that... cry.gif  cry.gif
the d'carbo worth a try...  whistling.gif

ya..last time d d tip putus oredi..tot y suddenly d car ekzos so loud... doh.gif
changed d spoilt stock catcon to another non-branded 1...looks slightly diff than d stock1...

ur 4-2-1 setup,etc cost u how much bro?

my average highway drive 8.3L/100km...city driving 10.9L/100km...

so anyone still wanna complain about their fc high?oh yeah...mine is manual not auto...wahahahahhaha
just do a simple mod bro...
1. extractor change to 4-2-1 wegow or r3 header oso can...wegow is rm250 with installation in seremban...if u want r3 i plan to sell mine at RM250 installation not inclusive...
2. throw ur standard midbox n change to a straight bullet...not swirl one...
3. everco s-flow muffler...
4. fuel pressure regulator do it at our place confirm 100% satisfaction guaranteed...RM480 sekali bayar n warranty 1 year...free tuned after that or if item faulty no nid to pay to take it out n fix it back for warranty claim...
5. large snorkel with drop in filter...
6. smaller piping eg 1.6"

all above cost less than RM2000...u wanna test drive a car with all mods above done? contact ahlong...he is staying in gombak n he can let u drive his car...n his car is auto...
do u know where is the cat con located? its at the engine bay...after the engine head u will see the cover right? that is where the catcon located...the muffle @ ekzos belakang is not the catcon...

lighten crank can be used...but do all basic mod i mention above first...if u still not satisfied oni then add lighten crank n adjustable cam pulley etc...dont simply waste ur money on things u'll regret later...

yeah bro, i know where's d catcon..haha..for sure d muffler/ekzos is not it...i meant mine stock muffler putus onli nod.gif

i guess i'd change to hotbit 4-2-1 setup & c how it goes 1st...btw, any1 can tell me how much i'll hav 2 fork out 4 that mod? smile.gif

Just wondering, despite all the mods u guys hav done, does d infamous torque dip still occur? sweat.gif

another Q...where to get those R3 parts? muz go back P1 SC?

Full_Throttle - how did u know the catcon spoilt? if baes on the muffler, of course a standard gen2 muffler will rust n putus if u dont throw away the catcon...this is due to the fact that its purpose is to oxidized unburnt hydrocarbons (HC) to carbon dioxide and water n minimize the pollution.

that is why a stock muffler would easily rust n fell off...so instead of replacing a catcon with a new catcon, better u change to aftermarket 4-2-1 header or else u'll have to face the problems of midbox fiber also fell off the sarang n repeated muffler tip bocor...

after basic mod like i mentioned before...a persona AT went for a dyno just recently n at the graph the torque dip is not that obvious...even if there is, it is very little

oh...okok...anyway, i'd try those mods u guys adviced on once i grab hold of d car (now my dad drivin)... sweat.gif
anyway, thanks all sifu 4 d recommendation...hope can get more pointers here thumbup.gif

just dismantle the airbox especially the 'jantung' that connects the box with ur tb, can c the tb screw...dismantle it...spray with wd40 n kilat kaw2 then pasang balik...done...if u dunno how to dismantle it just spray wd40 on a piece of cloth n 'sental' the tb...eaiser if dismantle because u need to clean the inner part as well...once it's shiny its done...no need to tune ecu etc...if u go to sc they said bla bla bla bulsh|t bla bla bla...
