Opinions on improving performance for lancer

rockysham000 SG

Hi All,

Hope you guys are doing good. I have a few things to ask if any1 is familiar with it.

Basically I would like to enhance the performance of the lancer glx 1.6M 2005

I have in mind first is to change the air filter to hurricane open pod air filter, as after much reading abt it .. understand that installing it will give more Power, smoother, acceleration and best of all, that loud rev engine sound which i like Smile

what's your guys opinion in this?

Also most critical is, before having air filter changed, any piping things i need to change? I'm quite a newbie on this part, heard abt the short piping need to be change so the underbonnet heat hot intake air will not undo the potential benefits of my open pod filter. something like heatshield etc ... any1 familiar with these and care to share with me your advice ???

Secondly, i thot of changing the spark plug .... to NGK Iridium IX spark plug .. as understand it gives betta acceleration, better fuel consumption, faster starting and smoother running .... any opinion you guys will like to share ?

Also, how much cost will it involve? Besides that, any economical price for other modifications you think i should do? put aside those turbo charge etc ...

Thanks and hope to hear from as many as you guys ..

Rgds.

ultimately for the 1.6 lancer, if wanna spend a bit, not gonna make much diff so might as well dun do. if wanna spend alot, then i suggest change car would be a better option.

change car

my suggestion would be:

1) get better tyres
2) get better suspension
3) learn advanced driving technique

who knows... maybe you'd be surprised how much faster you can take your car to through the corners Mr. Green

then after some time... you'd wanna change the car as well Razz
