dear ppl,
currently driving sgti,
planning to upgrade to 1.8 mivec,
any sifu knows which+ where workshop recommend? price?
cause heard hard to get the mivec top itself, been searching
like hell...
thanx
I don't understand why u want to change to mivec 1.8. Your GTi engine can also achieve the same (if not better) WHP. I' driving a GTi with minor mods (cams, CAI & exhaust only - no oversize piston ir what so ever) . :rolleyes:
Spent about 4K and I got 135WHP at DMT dyno machine. No safc or stand alone ecu. A similar moded mivec 1.8 will give around 130WHP at DMT dyno machine. The mivec's 0-100km/j is 7.2 sec, mine is 6.7 sec ( that is ITR territory). :lol:
With another 2.5K( u have to search around for a good and low budget workshop - not like in Sunway - potong kepala) I will add another 25 - 35WHP. Think again men. Oh by the way, slightly moded mivec 1.6 or B16A all senang kena tapau by my GTi. Sorry to say but it's true. Highly moded lain cerita. Just want to share my experience. ok :P [/b][/quote]
Putera,
U r using mild 268 or hot 272 cams? My long ago dyno at DMT.. some mods with no cams already getting 130 atw.
Done a coupla dynos with Mivec 1.8, in "stock 1.8Mivec" form already getting at least 150atw. Mine and a friend's already doing 160++ and my other friend's already pushing 170+ and that is achieved without Jun or Toda cams...
