boon,
to me no need to rojak unless necessary. the gb when purchased, is ready to be used without problems.why rojak when the gb is doing fine and can still deliver whp? unless wanna rojak to get a long ratio becoz of fuel consumption.

i wont touch my gb unless necessary and my gb is not a rare species gb. many is having it.

btw boon, your auto lantis is 1.6 or 1.8? my wife's 1.8 lynx 3rd gear also can go 170kmh....hey, ever thought of NGV in your lantis? i'm aiming one right now....consumption is very very very cheap....

4th gear is only cruising; never ever noticed my GB went to 4th gear in the city.
there's once a discussion on conversion to NGV.......it's already done somewhere up north...
forgot what's the thread already....

it's in our forum:

boon,
yours also auto tranny right? or manual?
there's one guy doing the NGV installation at penang...i know the name but hardly know the guy...A friend from Penang will be updating me on this thing as the guy doesn't use the tank to put in gas. u know laa...if use tank, half of the booth cannot be used anymore.

i also have contact here, the workshop is at glenmarie...he quote me rm4.4k including puspakom...i'm really going to NGVs laa...rm7=150km!
go here for more info...i got this link from VF10....

than u have to spare away half your booth for the tank..
somemore queue for like mad to get the tank filled.
Anyway, if it's for your wife and u got anuther hobby car to play around with; I guessed the decision is ok.

But mine is like oni 1 car which is my daily drive; I'm not planning to sacrifice for FC yet...kekekeke
btw, my 1.8 10yr old engine is consuming quite alot of fuel (more than normal). Maybe it's because of the chop shop ECU that was installed after the old one got fried.

Any shop recommended to re-tune or re-chip our ECU?

that's why there's a new design tank that can save more space.
i dont think can rechip the ecu for our car. try checking for the o2 sensor that might already faulty. my wife's lynx already 11 years old.currently an average of 50km per rm10.

i wanna explore possibilities for a turbo engine to be installed NGV too. there's application for turbo engines NGV above 200whp. and as always, if want more power, switch it from gas to petrol.

Hi, need opinion from everyone here.

I am looking to buy a fun hatchback to drive (budget under RM 100k). So far I have listed Jazz, Mazda 2, Polo, Peugeot 208 and Fiesta.

1. Jazz - The most practical but kinda boring.

2. Mazda 2 - Personally haven't test drive yet but based on review, seems to be a great fun car to drive.

3. Polo - So far the best car I have ever tested. Currently my first choice.

4. Peugeot 208 - Quite new to me, need opinions on this. Not sure whether it uses dry...
