[QUOTE="satria_95, post: 1689757, member: 1506"] -storm- For a moment there, I thought you were driving Mitsu Storm. Or I thought you were Storm from StormRider. hehehe Anyway, I've heard many stories about proton auto tranny being not fuel economical. Meaning, proton auto gear boxes consume lots of petrol. Modify it some more, and it'll become worst. I changed to K&N air filter on my satria 1.6L manual tranny. If I drive really like a good boy, RM30 takes me about 200km, and even that, the fuel is like really really low already. If I rev all the time, RM30 takes me only 130km. Believe it, dude. I'm no car professional but I think, roughly, that extractor, air filter, larger throttle body, etc. will cause you to lose that bit of fuel economy. What more with auto tranny. Maybe you could try changing to manual gear box? Yep, a bit pricey so go check out your car settings first. Maybe changing tranny could be the last resort. Or install retractable hooks under the front of your car. Put a switch at your dash board. In traffic jam, press the switch and the hook will extend out the front of your car. Then, the hook will hook to the front car. Set your car on neutral. When the front car move, it will pull your car. hahahaha [/QUOTE]
