So its ok to use straight flow type muffler but have to retain other part stock??

I want to changed mine coz already sound "kosong"...

 

[wfhan]

mine also sound 'kosong'... haiz... hi hi hi hi-power silent.....

 

[Greytezza]

mine also sound 'kosong'... haiz... hi hi hi hi-power silent.....

Hahaha..so much to do Mike...but the freaking prices of all the aftermarket muffler is too freaking high these days...Hi-Power Silent is around 2.6K (1-2 months) and TRD is ard 3-3.3K (1-2months)...

I am looking at the possibility of getting a local shop to do a muffler system for my car...save $$$ for other worth while mods...

Hi,

Generally .....High Fuel consumption.

 

[wfhan]

plug in diagnostic computer, u'll get ot retrieve the err code (if o2 failed)
e-Throttle means is "drive-by-wire" thingy (perhaps a DBW module?!? or is built-in ECU??!)

Modification :

- If your into modifying the engine then buy a 6MT. More parts and cheaper than 5AT.
- 5AT has less upgrade parts and quite expensive.
- 6Mt can use standalone ECU like Apexi Power FC. Plug & play in the original ECU box.
- 5AT can use Apexi Power FC from Brash Boy only. Run as a piggy back cos need to retain original ECU to run the gearbox.
- 5AT can only use HKS SLD Type II to remove speedcut.
- 6MT can most of the aftermarket speedcut remover.
- 5AT can only use panel air filter. Open pod not recommended. Power loss and can damage throttle body.
- 6MT can use open pod filters.
- 5AT & 6MT Most owners will upgrade the suspension and anti roll bar cos original is quite soft.



5AT Upgrade do and dont's

- Auto : never use open pod filter as will lose power and possibly damage the Electronic Throttle Body.
- Auto : Retain the orignal air box and use panel filter like K&N etc.
- Auto : Used HKS SLD Type II to remove speed cut. Other brand some work some does not work.
- Auto : E manage does not work cos original ECU will try to gain control of engine and transmission parameters.
- Auto : Apexi Power FC tuned by Brash Boy is more suitable as a piggyback computer.
- Auto : Dynojet Powercommander III works well.
- Auto : Never remove the catalic convertor. You will lose low end torque. Unless have a after market computer to adjust the AFR and ignition timing.


Hi Ae111,

the Dynojet Powercommander III i search online is for motorbike. it is because our engine is Yamaha, so also can use? what is its function? fuel control only?

what you mean by brash boy in above? is a workshop?
