dont do engine mods lohh... be patients and know more about your car till ur waranty is over... many people dont know their cars capability 100% and keeps complaining it is slow... try make full use of ur car and adapt the most suitable driving way... by this, u can get the best out of ur current stock setting...

hehe...throw unwanted items out from the car.....carpets, upholstery, back seat etc can weight quite a bit. They throw out the spare tyre. This can help a bit in pick up and maybe improve FC oso....kekekeke. Eh, that wouldn't improve poower, but that would give better power/weight ratio lor...

Then slap on some MMC stickers, sure feel fast-fast one.......
OK, Ok just kidding nia.......:shocked:

yealer.... proton after service do sucks sometimes... but since they offer free service, why not make use of it... modding cars isnt a bad thing... knowing how to control ur car 100% is the main thing...

i think you better wait....normally new cars dont reach their peak performance yet....you have to wait & put on more mileage before you realise the full potential of your engine & then maybe you can start modding as per yr needs....if yours is the Saga aeroback LMST type then i think it can easily reach a top speed of 160km/h on open roads...& slightly more with downhill assistance !!! hmmm...tak cukup ke :)

well, you can get some power by removing the filter i guess, i mean run without air filter, and when go service put the filter back :D then they dunno nothing about it.

and for your 6 second dream:
remove engine hood, remove rear trunk lid, stripped the interior, throw away even the dashboard, you only need 1 seat, a gearnobe, some gauges, and a steering anyway. remove all window and windshield. remove aircond, power steering, and even the alternator (run on battery alone, charge when run flat). loose a few kg yourself. run engine on kick ass big carburator with holley's nos. maybe you can get 6 second like that..
