[QUOTE="140dB, post: 774928, member: 10996"] "IMO i dont think a its ridiculous for a manufacturer to choose an engine because its easy to mod.. I believe as long as proton builds a reliable, safe and affordable car thats pleasing to the eyes, that should work out in the world market.. as demand for such a car increases, performance parts would eventually flood the market" i agree wif ur point. make the engine block, head whatever as reliable as possible. just like the VR4. its reliability is legendary. partly oso cos it uses an iron block as opposed to aluminium block. see like dat means "no holds barred" design and construction..... something like dat. once the block and head can stand the pressure, , aftermarket parts to boost the power will follow as the foundation is strong and proven to be able to handle the additional power and abuse..............once the platform is reliable ppl will be more confident to mod it for more power....once u see more powerful cars(in this case gen2) on the road, the public perception towards the car will change too(fuyoo...gen2 power sial..etc etc...) i guess proton engineers knows this but cant do anything as most probably their oems supply them wif shit.oems oso have to cover cost and in protons case make an obscene profit. and if their overheads include bribing the purchaser etc etc..the end result is shittier still. welcome to the real world..err sorry..welcome to malaysia.. 140dB [/QUOTE]
