Last night im driving my car from Perlis to Penang, suddenly i heard the tapet sound from 4g93 n/a turn too noisy than usual and the engine power also lost. Feel heavy and cant go to 140km/h. Continue drive slowly until reach the Penang Bridge, when i press the clutch the engine dead, also heard the high humming sound from tappet before that. Then engine cannot start, like battery low. Try to jumped the the battery also cannot. Then towed the car by Peronda Plus to nearby workshop. What exacly happen to the car? Still waiting the Pomen to solve.

Made the following mods on my ATR....

- Apexi N1 Evolution exhaust (gives a nice rumble).
- Defi boost gauge
- SARD fuel regulator

This coming Saturday, I will be installing the Blitz i-color boost controller.

Ok, having installed the N1 I believe I have lost a bit of low end making city driving a bit more difficult as I have lost some back pressure which the auto does not seem to like....I'm hoping the boost controller will help with this as it will allow me to set boost...
