wah...50k on saga turbo....ganas nyer...must be monster kaw kaw

poc roc,

most will not believe but when you add up all your bills from the day you start converting till today, it adds up to the same amount. i've trashed up 3 engines, had a spare engine in my workshop, enough spare parts to build another engine and by the time i realise i've gone out of hand, your mechanic named you as the biggest contributor of his new outlet.

you can ask your sifoo jin...i think he still is going the same route that all of us uncles do last time.

Regret spend my money on:

1.Pivot voltage stabilizer=voltage up a bit and feel good(c thru RSM)but later voltage back to normal.
2.Replica tial wastegate=Got fierce sound but boost leak.
3.Cusco 4cm 2 point carbon fiber front strut bar=change my ori steel 1 to tis,look damn cool in engine bay but feel car's front part more bumping and a bit hard to drive when low speed.

from wat i remember i spent around 8k to mod/make up my car for the past 6 years. the thing i regret the most was when i bought 'cap ayam' adjustable suspension from Brothers, it cost damn RM800 and it doesn't feel good at all! less than 1 year i changed to GAB short-stroke absorber and i quite like the ride height and handling of the car.

i've been using it for more than 2 years now...:wavey:
