Naah it's about the same. I seldom clean my Simotas too, mostly just knock them a few times to get rid off the dust every 10k km oil change and put them back! My cleaning kit still has plenty left in the bottle. Works fine for me all these years. :biggrin:
i never cleaned my works filters with the cleaner since i bought it. hahaha. always just use air gun when i go to workshop for oil change and stuff.

I don't allow workshop to touch my filter. Don't these filters depend on being oil soaked for their filtration?

Haha... Blow it kaw kaw as clean as you can. Then drop it into a bucket of detergent water for 5-10 minutes. You can see how clean it is. You need to leave overnight to dry though. Inadvisable to dry with hair dryer

It's the little dust particles that we cant see, that goes into the engine

I put a layer of aircond filter on my drop in k&n. This is the one u can buy from Daiso.
I just swap that layer of filter when it gets too dirty, no specific mileage.

If i rajin, i just wash the filter with water.Mine is not paper cartridge type but i think its nylon with steel mesh.

The Works i have on my BLM oso i just spray with water.Before raya i just cleaned it after dunno how long.can feel the improvement after clean..

why u poison him go tebo? lol. inspira actually can get 4b11T ori half cut and swap right? i think gonna cost around the same as what u quoted there.
The difference with customizing his current engine is he knows what he's getting and possibly it might be stronger than a 4B11T if gone all out with forged everything and a large turbo. Plus you won't have the hassle of engine endorsement and puspakom.

Hey, arent we supposed to clean Simoltas every 5K? That's what it says in instruction pamphlet from the cleaning kit
"Should" isn't always "could". Hehehe.. I think generally the mentality is like this - for the first 10,000km you will diligently wash and clean. After 15,000 you'll get lazy and complacent. At 20,000 you'll think "It works.. .why bother". At 40,000 you'll forget you had a simota.

and it's "Simota" la... "Simolta" is probably a china copy of a china product

Yeah I was referring to the drop-in type. I heard its filtration is not as good as the stock one. Power increased at the cost of engine's longevity, no?
Search for ralliart intake for the lancer. It’s a ralliart funnel that’s bigger and more optimized for the intake. Connects to the same stock airbox.

I’ve got a brand new one lying around somewhere if you want.

Don't give up so easily. First things first, set a budget and then talk to an expert with a shop that'd be willing to do the mods for you and see if your budget matches his price. If it doesn't then save up until you do have enough. Then take a deep dive and join the dark side..... and whack that Mark X next time you see it. :biggrin:

Incidentally I think prices would be 15k-20k for a hardcore full-on turbo setup (pistons, conrods, ecu, turbo, workmanship, exhaust, tuning). But there are ways to get this much lower in price.
My budget is actually around RM10K. I thought it should be cheaper since I got the 4B11 engine. Only the labor cost of swapping incurred. I don't think I'd go for turbo. Dunno how to maintain.

Mark X should be out of question here unless my car can hit 250km/h mark. Lol..

He’s not buying it. His father’s car inspira is 4b11 auto. But yeah, the money needed for the swap and all just for a very very small gain can be better spend on doing up the 4b10.
Yeah. My father drives a 2.0 Inspira. Very small gain only?? I thought should have at least 10% gain in the overall performance...

What exactly is funnel? Is it muffler/exhaust? Does it pull in more air?

What if ts swap to carbon body panel,will that help top speed?
Or tinker with the gb ratio?

Last time i did saw a covering panel for underside of a car.not sure if the conpany is still around as i doubt there are many customer for that product.It improve airflow underneath the car.

Have u tried waxing your car kaw2 until so slippery that it gain extra 5kmh top speed....heheh.
What did you mean by "waxing until so slippery"? 205km/h is like max already. Downhill plus a bit of slip stream. Usually until 200km/h only.

To sum it all up, ways to increase NA engine's power are Drop In Filter, ECU re-flash and Exhaust Manifold. Any more suggestion??

Those Simota funnel are available also for my SSS but got reports of it making the engine running too lean causing the check engine light on, and loosing a bit of low end torque. Some say it doesn't make much power anyway but more just intake noise. That's why I didn't install and just opt for simple drop-in.

The term ‘little car, big engine’ has never rung truer with this ultimate sleeper 1980 Toyota Corolla TE71 that has ditched its puny single cam four-banger for some pure American muscle that could rip the chassis apart.



Sitting in the engine bay is a 7.4-liter big block Chevy V8 lump that sends power to the rear wheels...
