Engine Mounting & Evo-6 Cam Set (Repair & Upgrade)

[cftiew]

i got FMIC in hand somemore so save another 1K, brother i be poison by u kaw kaw, that mean i manage to smoke back the mark-x haha.... but currently got no idea what happen to my ride lack of power & response.

In the book, it says 240hp at the crank. With aging parts became inefficient and complete stock unmodified condition, the most you get is around 155whp because auto gearbox robs power away from your engine pretty much. That means at the crank, you get only 210-220hp.

Not to forget Airtrek is darn heavy. A full spec Airtrek with sunroof was being weighed before at around 1650kgs. So imagine the 155whp lugging around that weight!

Mark X (10) is fast because of newer generation engine, still kinda new and coupe that it's NA, therefore very responsive.

Because our engines have so much potential and aftermarket parts, it's really unbearable to see those power not unleashed. Hehehe.... after you hook up your stuffs, like Kannibu said, PRICELESS, hahaha....

By the way, I raced with a Civic FD2 2.0 before (not type R). I had 2 passengers and that car was a single driver alone. 1st gear was equal and there after, I over took it. Back then, I had no modification except for K&N filter & increased boost. Everything was original.

i raced wif f10 before,althought kenot overtake it over speedometer limit n rpm around 5 at fifth gear is over 230kmh.with my current spec engine.sumore detune ron95.imagine u r not detune....

 

[cftiew]

F10??? M5? oh god !! i bought my car almost 2 years but in the past 2 years just repair not yet upgrade except exhaust system and increase boost, since currently my car without any serious problem ( touch wood ) so i decided to do some modification. as i need to travel more than 300++km to KL b4 that i collect all necessary parts then do it with one shoot .....

 

[kaninbu]

not m5 la latest f10.they got speed cut at 250kmh.if u can go above tat surely can smoke them.

 

[cftiew]

I dun hv the guts to go above 250km/h haha... By the way bro wat do u wan ur ride detune? Is it tune to compatible with Ron 95?

 

[kaninbu]

yea,detune as retard ur timing.when u got normal timing wif high compression n uses ron95,u spoilt the engine because pre ignition/detonation.
on ron95 rm50 i can go around 220km.town driving only.

Update :

Okay, fuel consumption improved. After I got the cam installed, I've been driving very agressively (syok ma...). The FC is 6.04km/L. If I drive the same without the cam, it would have been around 5.5km/L.

Refueled and will drive like mormal, see if there'll be improvement. Normal driving should be around 6.3-6.5km/L.

Additionally, I used to run on 1.3 bar ... after the E6 cam, I detuned it to 1.1 bar and yesterday, I lowered it to 0.9 bar. I'm not really racing it, it makes no differnce...

 

[kaninbu]

mid til high end torque improve rite?

 

[stutzedward]

u mean after lowering the boost?

 

[kaninbu]

after installing e6 cams

 

[stutzedward]

Torque improvement begins as low as 2000rpm all the way to red zone. The car felt much lighter and willing on city-driving pedalling. This makes me think why isn't Mitsubishi putting in such cam in the first place for Airtrek? I really don't understand what they're thinking.

 

[kaninbu]

airtrek 4g63 is way very different wit evos.evos are forged internal n higher compression.atr 4g63 is just a normal 2.0l engine.

 

[stutzedward]

So yr saying probably cost is the main reason for the difference, eh?

 

[kaninbu]

yup,if really adding parts bit by bits the cost almost add up like an real evo
