QUOTE(ianho @ Feb 18 2009, 02:29 AM) Most important thing is NOT to change exhaust. Auto cars with loud exhaust r horrible. Make the car sound like a motor boat! reading this makes me laugh.. bro, changing exhaust doesn't mean it has to be loud.. it juz gives better flow.. and, for an auto tranny, u'll be using the "S-Flow" type muffler, which in return already reduces the noise.. there's a lot of aftermarket exhaust out there that are silent.. don't go for the "RM130 Semua Siap Pasang" package la..what i'm using for my Gen-2, changed R3 header (removed the CAT), bullet, and Speedworks muffler, no noise at all inside cabin.. outside, when u pull, it sounds like a turbo engine when the internal wastegate routes the gas through the exhaust, which is sweet for me.. it's silent if the throttle is depressed <50%.. dyno tested it, before and after gave me an extra 9HP at the wheels.. that is without the K&N, and with, adds up another 2HP.. not to say it cannot tahan mods, it can.. but our proton gearboxes only can withstand to a certain HP increase before it fails, which is not much btw.. that's why American or European gearboxes have horsepower ratings, i.e, till 550HP etc.. p/s: i destroyed 7 auto gearboxes in my 1st car, which is a 1990 Proton Saga 1.5i (4G15) [personal R&D purposes], before i finally swapped to VR4-RS (4G63T) engine..

lol
best still is no exhaust after extractor. that is proven to be the best or straight piping to the rear without any bullets or midboxes - they ruin power at high revs if your car is setup for high power at high revs. |

intake, exhaust, ignition, fuel management
drop in air filter will help a lot due to higher flow of air exhaust, if u wan to b silent, add more mid box, use s-flow muffler to gain more back pressure for yr auto gearbox since u;re n/a engine change a set of iridium plugs is more than enough fuel management, emanage n also, take out everything unnecessary such as spare tyres if u always travel short distance This post has been edited by RCrex: Feb 18 2009, 09:00 PM |

I'm using manual... Is there any other alternatives for straight flow? cuz straight flow is reli noisy and 'suck fuel'... i think...
Air filter.. drop in? how about open pod? Which is better? Cat-con filters the air right? Is it legal to remove it? |
