[TheSquee]

Hey there everybody , just got my car Honda Civic EG8 convert interior EG9

I have a B16A and i'm in a low budget on upgrades lets just say i wanna spend RM300 for NOW..

What would you suggest ? i have these in mind

• simota twister open pod + piping
• custom volt stabilizer and grounding cable
• spark plug cable
• lightened crank pulley

By the way my car is an AUTO , do not give me comments such as changing to Manual ( love to but no cash in hand now ) -_-

please advice sifus !

ECU auto-->manual

 

[TheSquee]

? what you mean lol

 

[arrowhead]

he meant that u change your ecu from auto to manual ecu.

among all u listed, i think the simolta twister will probably give u better response on high rpms...

the rest are... erm.... subjective....

 

[TheSquee]

benefits of actually changing to a manual ECU is ? O_o please explain sifus :D

anyways how are the standard open pod simota filters ?

 

[arturo]

i tot open pods will cause autos to have higher FC n loss of low end torque?

E-tech...manual ECU can put into auto? tranny ecu is seperate issit? btw..still waiting for yr help leh

theSquee...i drive an EG8 auto too...but mines stock standard. oni using a K&N drop in filter, grounding and a VS.

the simota twister

No need to change ECU Auto>Manual,....just chip it and retune (I think thats what E-tech really meant).

IMO, save your extra money for now, you don't really know the condition of your engine yet being just converted....problems are gonna pop after a couple of months, make everything tip top first before you spend your money on minor mods.

i think chip n retune sholud be gud enuf like aalto said,then if u got extra go for exhaust system then slowly go for others tat wut i did last time on my eg9(m)
Great Car :proud:

 

[shah5755]

for me its gonna start from intake system, than go for exhaust sytem.....others depend if got xtra money then change.......yup agree wit aalto, shud keep some xtra money for standby coz u'll be thankful u hv some cash reserved when problems start to come
problems really make u wanna go crazee

 

[arturo]

agreed...must always keep some spare for repairs...old car mah.

 

[cat77]

flushing a auto gearbox will be a good idea do......

 

[E-Tech]

Rm300....? Ecu will be your best bet...(chipped)
:-)
twister guppy will give good sound but little
ummp...
If want both also can.. Ecu can be convert to
manual at small cost then u can hv ur filter too...
U transmission shift point will go up..
Rev cut also higher...

 

[shah5755]

[caleb_5375]
