My frens mivec seems doesnt perform well. When rpm reach 5-6k , top speed can be reach only 140-150kmh..

normally when 3000rpm, normal car will reach 100kmh-110 based on my experience in driving .. but his car rpm must be >4k in order to reach that...

is it a ecu problem? or exhaust tuning or maybe some other problems happen here..

No, not his car problem. This because mivec engine come with close ratio gearbox.

xin, wat r u talking abt...
mivec engage point ard 5.5k... n lsd gearbox doesn't affect the torque curve... n stock mivec max torque is at 7k rpm....

like boyzone said, mivec running on close ratio gearbox, its meant for pick n keep mivec point engage whenever u drag n shift at 8k rpm....

mivec gearbox shoul dgive you 5th gear 3k rpm ard 85km/h.
5th gear 110km/h is ard 3.9k rpm....

its not his mivec got prob, is the gear ratio design~!

[When rpm reach 5-6k , top speed can be reach only 140-150kmh..]
dun worry abt this... normal proton 6k red line, mivec 8krpm red line...

my 1.6 mivec 4th gear 8k rpm 205km/h
5th gear 7.4k rpm 223km/h....

so dun worry, mivec is not normal proton engine,
u guys drive max 6k rpm....

mivec engine 6k rpm onli start screaming... until 8k rpm...

my car rechipped, max rev 8.9k rpm... i done 0-100km/h on 2nd gear 8.6k rpm....

Zthian,

wanted to find out any workshop near KL/PJ/Shah ALam/Subang that good in flushing gearbox? Though of flushing my gearbox and pour in Motul.
Anyone have any idea how much it usually cost? Do not want to be water fish (because CNY is near), get bad workmanship (or shit) and worst still spoiled my gearbox. :angry:

Thanks in advance.
