L5 4 cyl have this stock standard.... [/LIST] As per L5, there are 2 different type... one is the 3cylinder but with a twin cam head (easy to say its an L2 wif twin cam head) and the other is the 4cylinder one... so far i've nver heard problem plaguing L2 happened to L5, especially the 4cylinder ones... from experience and from frens.... maybe because its a relatively newer design than L2.... the 4cyl version oso are quieter than L2.....even in exhaust note.... try swapping same exhaust setup from L2 to L5 4cyl.... you'd be suprised how quieter the exhaust note is.. and the aircon are very2 cold hehe the problem i heard from L5 engines are [LIST=1] [*]Sparepart not easy to find.... but since lotsa ppl using it, the parts are fast becoming easy to find.. before this, finding the air filter replacement might cost nearing rm100... nowadays can get as low as rm70 (ori daihatsu) [*]Bodykits from L5 need to mod before can fit into kancil [/LIST] Whichever u choose depends on your needs.... [LIST=1] [*]Want top performance, better go for L2 since this engine most kei car tuner are familiar with... and easy to upgrade engine cc hehe... you can be the king of the traffic light drag [*]Want a stable, quiet high speed cruising.... go L5... you can cruise constant 130kmh above from KL to Alor Star without any overheat problems.. TESTED! [/LIST] I'm an owner of L5 JB-JL engine (the 4 cyl version) manual tranny + LSD since Feb 2009 (mileage 12x,xxxkm)... and I've never have any problem yet, even after upping my boost level to 1bar using stock turbo.... my runner cum foremen oso use this engine but wif auto trany wif bigger turbo since 2006.... just before puasa have to change engine....his old L5 engine leaks because boosting 1.5bar :stupid:... now his using the same engine but came from L6 since its have lower mileage on it as per suspensions..... its relative to the driver...as for me, already satisfied wif OEM L502 springs and abs.... but may ppl sez, get KAYABA New SR abs + RSR 2000 springs.... happy converting! :driver: [/QUOTE]
