larger bore high comp pistons, skim head, oversize valves, korek throttle body, ported head, 4-2-1 good quality SS extractor into 2.3" SS piping out into a good straight flow muffler. and get Unichip to fine tune it.

Is it VDO can function well with unichip Q+?

should work.

what improvement will the car get from lightweigh wheels? Any other tuning after changing the wheels?

try go from 7kg wheels to 4kg wheels for 15 inch. Tuning the feel what i can say. Better acceleration, handling, braking...etc.
Cons i can see is price and thieves for ori lightweight wheels.
Above of all invest in good tires you can afford.

Better handling, less rebound weight, but less comfort also....

Less comfort? I thought comfort may improve

Engine stock. Only things I did is 4-2-1 extractor, 1.7 inch exhaust piping with a bullet/resonator and twin tip muffler from Wira 1.8. Also I had my ignition timing advanced which is adjusted at the distributor. That's it. Engine oil is on fully synthetic 5W-40 and this is important too for engine performance.

I don't plan to do as much as you write like standalone ECU or turbo kit. Just minor cheap upgrade and try to keep most things OEM or stock. Wanted the car to be balanced, an all rounder. If I want to go for heavy performance mod, I will definitely choose to buy another car to do it, not my current Wira.

Planning to do the same. Keep the extractor and change to 1.7" exhaust piping with resonator and change a 1.8 muffler. Can advice what is the estimated price?

If I am not mistaken, the extractor cost me RM265 and the piping RM220. Those two are not stainless steel, just normal mild steel. The muffler was given to me by Parakey from ZTH here. Can never thank him enough for that.

OK... OK... that's mean your extractor is a new one. Cos I think only Wira SE version came with 4-2-1 already. That extractor will be cast iron? I don't think that I'm that lucky to find a good condition muffler and no bocor... will try...

Thanks.

 

[vr2turbo]

If not mistaken, original Wira exhaust already 4-2-1, only aftermarket ones the length differs being longer......

not cast iron. mild steel.
mind if i ask, what's your target? u can try those mild steel extractor or get performance stainless steel extractor like this one from mudah: https://www.mudah.my/Extractor+Wira+Satria+1+3+1+5+Injection+4x2x1+4g15-72623684.htm

then just use 2" piping with high flow resonator/mid-box and route to a good flowing straight flow muffler.

Maybe you remember wrongly. I think it's less than 200.

Just to want to have a slightly improve performance. I read from others than it also improve the flow and smoother drive. Not going for those loud screaming pranggg... prangg... exhaust :-) too old for that.

Yes, I bought mine new for the extractor and piping.

Only the original short 4-1 type is cast iron I think. The Wira SE 4-2-1 is not.

The original 4-2-1 is for the early batches of Wira SE. I can't be too sure for those found in Wira 1.6 and 1.8 though. However, I do notice certain carb 1.3 and 1.5 came with short 4-2-1 extractor.

Nope, definitely over RM200. Yesterday I checked my old records for it. It is RM265.

My revs are indeed smoother after I did the piping. My setup won't sound like pranggg pranggg but the sound is definitely a bit louder than stock when I hear it from outside. One more thing is, I noticed the low frequency bass-like humming noise is louder at certain mid range RPM like between 3-4k rpm when I release the throttle. Might be due to the resonator / bullet thing that I replaced my cat con with.
