bro, cant calculate using bar, u try reset ur odo meter, den pump full tank, den when reached 1/2 tank and refuel it, den take the amount of liter den divide it with how many km u manage to drive prior the fill up.....as the bar can be misleading due to the shape of the fuel tank

Yes I did that before but never divide la...I just drive after 4 bars down, I pump back full. Then I roughly calculate example 239KM = RM45

Ya very misleading, that's why i prefer the Needle type of meter...never like digital..hard to estimate...

Managed to borrow my boss SAGA BLM (pre FL cars) for 2 weeks (1 week before and 1 week after)... and record every fillups (all full fillups) and its odo reading via FuelLog for Android I've managed to get 252km for RM45 (RON95)

Driving style is mixed... lots of town driving and balik raya to Kelantan on eve of raya (worst jam ever)

So for a full tank of fuel (40liter based on booklet) including reserve, I can safely said that 400km on average on this car...

maybe on a stock FLX auto it could go lots more... inaccurate digital fuel gauge notwithstanding hehe

KNN drop in already cost RM200..half of the open pod price already..dat's y I'm wondering which to choose also. But it won't be now la...exhaust system warranty is 1 year. So after a year I'll be changing both extractor and filter at once. Now eat gardenia and save $$ first haha
im change my extractor about 1 year 3-4 months of ownership. filter ntg to do with warranty gua..

Fuiyo.. eh take pics and post as a DIY la. If you cut the hole in the resonator did you cover it with a breather or some sort of filter? Take pics share share la.




Hahaha! Lady Gaga indeed! The result of the test by Mightycarmods was performance. Filtration testing isn't really that a big deal imho since anything that gets sucked into the combustion chamber is gonna burn into crisp and break down into either nothing or carbon. Worst case scenario is you get a lot of carbon buildup and your engine oil gets real dirty real fast.




Don't say waste la. Think of it as long term investment. Sooner or later you're gonna drop in that turbo and/or stroke and/or balancing and/or PNP and/or close ratio gearbox mah :biggrin:


i didn't cut hole for the outside air to come in...just make a bigger opening at the resonator "small hole"....so it transformed from a resonator into "surge" / collector tank of filtered air.....tomorrow i'll post some picture..... (at first i did this to give a bigger filtered air capacity to the MAF sensor because i tought my MAF sensor not getting good responds) :biggrin:


*the goodness of owning cheap car....not worry about expensive replacement if DIY mods gone wrong :rofl:

Drop in filter would not void warranty...but don't know bout open pod though.. I think even if void..whatever happens then just change back to ori and then only go claim ler...u're trying to temp me...cannot...cannot...sabar....:rofl:

I manage to do 14.5km/L on mix driving....13.8 on city drive. Traffic jam will usually be around 13-13.4km/L
