Common guys... MAKE TIME...!!! Lets do it!!

Alan,
still a long way..cannot promise la..


Guys,

side track..did any of us is brave enough to do the ecu remap..I found this webpages..claim can increased our THP to 180HP and 285MN torque..

then can start cucuk Alan GT tongue.gif , (alan, jangan marah..ur GT is always a benckmark to beat rolleyes.gif btw..is THP brake system same as GT?? or did GT use some fancy brake like brembo or spoon?? If same, can do this ecu thingy without compromising the safety.

I am pretty sure the engine can take it (jcw cooper s is tuned to more Hp and torque)..just wonder if the gear box can take it.. for me this have to wait untill warantty period is finish

For those intrested.They hv branch in Msia..

FEMlab bro, I've checked it out months ago....
The website says too many things... but they still cannot do it yet.... Already been to their workshop in Glenmarie to borak borak... They say that the Austrians talk alot... but they have not reached the level yet... everything say can but in actual fact.. cannot.. I am happy with my power... MORE power will not mean anything really, on Malaysian roads... Will keep mine stock standard for now...

ROTI CANAI SATUUUuuuu!!
Its not what you have...... its how you use it!!

guys... lets do a MY308club teh tarik... then we can all go to NZ galaxy during a weekend...

I would suggest the following:-
Date:27th June (Saturday),
Time: 1030am - 1pm
Location: Meet at Armada hotel car park (Asia Jaya)between 1015am to 1030am.
Leave carpark at 1030am in convoy to NZ Galaxy.
Go for lunch together at 1200noon.

Apamacam? Any better suggestions? Who can make it?

Not keen to fit the bodykit although I fitted the rear spoilers. I am really keen to change the front bumpers to the GT type, looks even more sleek....will check out if Auto France in SG can do it for the THP.

GT bumper is at sharper angle and sleeker compared to THP which is more rounded and has a bigger grille section. I personally prefer the GT over THP.
