Open pod on Automatic car

[yewly1990]

Aisay man. Lay off his case la. The fella wants to spend his money on a car he likes, that's his perogative mah. I've spent a small fortune on my Wira only to end up with less than 90whp currently (sigh). Probably would have spent the money better transplanting my engine.

We mod our cars for self satisfaction. Not to go faster than other cars mah

Yes, U get what I mean, just for self satisfaction, I`m not mod my car to go faster than others.

Yea, I know you going to Speedworks. Did you ask them about their BOT (Bolt on Turbo system)

I know what you mean. Done that before until I got my VR as like you your Perdana 6A12TT...

No, i`m not planning to do either superchargers or turbo, they not recommended to do so, turbo and superchargers project I will test on other cars.

in that case ok will support TS, but y not trying octane booster as well?

Currently using the octane from X-1R, but heard theres some octane booster which is better. Haven't try on this yet.

Moving the battery to the boot is always a good step, especially in a FWD car.

Maybe you should do that first and let Speedworks see the space that they can work with and go from there?

Good suggestion, I will try and ask this

In that case probably they don't have the unit yet for Almera since they don't recommend, as they have for Vios, CT, Myvi and even the Swift....

Probably might have later cause usually they make stuff for popular cars.

Facepalm. I suggested damn long ago in this thread.

If you can make your wira to yield 90 whp, I would say there is more saticfaction in that compared to transplanting a more powerful engine.

Sigh. Before I got my car rebuilt the 2nd time, my old cylinder head setup was giving me 90whp.. on my auto. Now when I change to manual the head warped and gone was my 90whp. Sigh sigh sigh.

Haha its okay. Basically, the body is a ground sooo, boot technically has a ground too.
Even Impul has nothing for Almera other than visual mods?

Well Bro if you really insisted to do open pod... Actually i have some idea on it.. Do something about your battery location..You can either turn the battery location to 90degrees or change to a smaller battery But powerful ones like the ODYSSEY brand... Last resort is to shift your whole battery to the car boot if you really that extreme.. But that would void your warranty i guess...

Well, they are OEM afterall. Must comply with this and that.
Play it safe so they don't have to do so much with warranty haha.

Thx for the suggest I had settle with the open pod method, speedwork say they could done it and make sure of performance gain

Relocate battery may be a good idea. But do not save money on this. Spend more on expensive, thick copper cables. You can take a peep at BMWs to bee how thick should a cable be if the battery is at the back. It is at least 3 times the thickness than the cable of a front battery. Having to travel a far distance, the resistance will be quite high putting extra load on the battery and reduce charging efficiency substantially. I've seen some experienced short battery life or problems to crank the engine due to not done properly. But if done properly, I think there would be no problem.
