hehehe.. as Pangyau suggested..
i did go retune my car with reflash in sunway GT auto last week..

previous owner set 1.1 bar low boost can only last 140km full tank ron97.. dynoed result is 226 with dynojet.. (with unknown flash setting.. and a power afc)
high boost 1.2 bar dyno result is 229.. lol..

now tuner done with my car.. low boost he set stock which is 0.8 for my e7.5.. dyno result is 233.. XD better than b4..

and about high boost setting which i most happy with it

1.0 bar..... dyno result 266..

(btw i ask for better mileage and worry my gearbox... so he just set 1.0 bar at high boost for me only.. )

now full tank ron97 can reach 200-300km (depends my foot)..

yay!! so damn better.. :D
and safc is edi disassembled for selling.. tuner said i dont need it.

btw.. he replaced my stock pump to walbro fuel pump ..

How much GT auto charge for reflash???

**ahlim13** · 05-06-2012, 10:26 PM

3.5k for 1st time. btw.. its my mech bring to them. I dunno how much he charges me as runner or middle guy.. as long i satisfied then i no question ask..
Reposition/rewired my greddy boost controller.. disassemble my safc nicely... eliminated some weird noise..
And check and reset my cam position.. cuz last owner replace with tomei cam pulley.. tuner said better check it as well..

So it might be cheaper go ourself.. but need wait many days.. they r busy like hell..

ahlim13,
Any noticeable noise can be heard in the cabin, with the Walbro Fuel Pump?
What type of Walbro? 255/L?

Hi bros,

Planning to get a Evo X but manual. Where can I find unregistered ones in KL? Most shops carrying SST only...

Any feedback appreciated,, thankiu...

I found few manual E10 around KL last time. Do check around Mudah website or maybe autotrader.

Yes, walbro fuel pump emits continous "teeeet" sound if the engine is running..

after deducting wiring works, set cams n ur fuel pump... izzit safe to say the tuning cost RM2000-2500??? u hav any other upgrades on ur engine (cams?? turbo??)??? 26xhp on wheel @ 1bar sounds very interesting... but tuning cost not attractive enuf...

ahlim13,
Your high boost 1.0 bar is actually a low boost for stock e7. As we already know stock e7 max boost is 1.2 bar tapering to 1.1 so your 'high boost setting' is even lower than the stock lower. Sorry if I burst your bubbles.

On another note, you're most probably using Ecutek if u flashed with GT Auto in which they normally charge close to 3k. But if they use Open Ecu and charge the same amount well that's a different story.

Pay attention to AFR, knock activity etc rather than trying to save extra mileage.

bro.. dunno u got read my previous post or not.. its e7.5.. evo gta stock is 0.8 only.. tuner n my mech said so..dunno who is right. ..but i believe its different turbo.. cam oso different

yea.. something ecutek did show on receipt..

if no believe its ok.. i dont mind at all.. i can notice here some forumer quite aggressive abt this kind of thing. but u guys r welcome find me to drink at seri kembangan.. i can bring alone my mech or my car with paper.. ^^

quite remind me one of the thread u guys bashing Evofans.. lol..

**calvin9683** · 05-08-2012, 09:10 PM

My E7 oso max boost at 0.8bar when I just got the car... Not sure if previous owner did anything la... But after install M7 EBC boost go up to 1.2bar... Even I off it still 1.2bar...

**pengyu** · 05-08-2012, 10:38 PM

bro i also stay around that area.
we always have a TT session around that area..but not an Evo-only TT. In fact, only two Evo's so far from 20++ cars. Feel free to PM me if you want to come for a TT session.
