I managed to clocked almost 180 kmh (habis meter) with my Espri Deto 1.6 Auto on OD mode.

But later, immidaitely slow down. Found very2 fast in a small car.

Helo...greeting everyone...
i'm using a aura 1.6auto deto (standard) jpj aproved :)
so the outlook no special to detect its moded...hehe...i still using the 13" tired with proton wheel cap :P

i did manage to get 180 also on my auto...buy i dont feel any lack of power...

there is an old forum on charade cars...which most of the pandan indah charade workshop guys use to hang out and they say someone manage to get a max of 220 on high way... (the old forum closed due to no $ to pay the server)

about the deto 1.6 deto gearbox...
do u guys have any problem with it?...example like lack of power...some times it jerk very hard on low gear speed up on the 'power' mode ..

My Manual Deto on an Aura also clocked 180km/h on the NS Highway. The stock Deto has a speed limiter lar, Confirmed already. You think 1.6 can go only 180 nia meh... Need RSM to bypass (or manual if u know the stuff).
The deto has surprisingly great power when you rev to 4k-6k rpm, there's a guy in Sunway he talks about removing the rev limiter too because the end power can still be harvested if you know how.

Guys,

For a such small car like Espri Deto, i think max 180 kmh just enough la, even though it quite stable with standard 14" Deto rims/tyre/suspension.

Remember arr. Small car. !

p/s : Recently if my Deto at N, the rpm is like 2k idling. Why so high one aar?. Can anyone help. (other than refer to DreamM or C&C)

There is an idling screw on your throttle body which allows you to control the idling level. Another factor might be your aircond idle control. Check this two. Or visit GT Auto in Sunway.

1st of all, Deto engine cant be tune for the rpm...it will automatically set by its OWN!!!
try drive around for 1-2 days....take it for a run on the hiway ..try to play around with 100 to 140 for a short while.....this work for me after everytime i service my car which disturb my timing setting..

my piece of advice is don't ever touch the aircond idling screw if u don't know how to tune it..u will just make thing worst...if uw anted to give a try..remember how many turns u make on the screw...

the next trick is to knock ur distributor clockwise or anti- clockwise to reduce the rpm...(but this is the last resource if all other thing fails to clear the problem)

i'm using auto gear....which i manage to get 180 on it...
but auto-gear power is reduce by 30% from the manual gearbox right?
now i wonder does my engine limit being removed?
i'm still using the stock air-filter...normal ekzos....in short= no sports or racing mod in my car...not even the rim.

One more thing i need help is about the deto 1.6 automatic gearbox.
my gearbox jerk very hard when i press the gas hard from 20km/h..it seems to JUMP into anotehr gear to speed up.....my gearbox oil is fine and clean(just check it) and sometimes it roar till 6k rpm in one go before it change to another gear...
so i have to play the the pedal to control good pick-up timing to prevent it to roar so much with no power diliver tot he wheel.....any advice on this?

btw..which workshoop in sunway knows about this deto engine tuning and where is the shoplocated?izit beside sunway college there? what is the shop name?

what u mean by knocking the dist.? u should'nt knock ur dist.
or mean rotating it?

rotating the dist. wont solve the problem coz its for adjusting firing timing..
u will get other problem if not done (timing) properly.

i think there should be idling adjuster screw on the TB (try looking in manual book). adjust the screw for proper idle.
