[QUOTE="ravingill, post: 1063530078, member: 30261"] hey bro , i am a satria 1.3gli user myself , i belief ur car is a manual too, well first ur high fuel consumption is due to your exhaust setup , i have played with numerous mods for my exhaust and have finally settled for a 1.6 inch piping , straight flow center bullet and s-flow muffler. This setup now gives me nice sound (not too loud but has a grawl) and i get 250km for every RM50 of ron95 petrol added. That means i average 9.6 km per liter of fuel which is ok i feel , it was much worse with my earlier straight flow exhaust , i only used to get max 210km for Rm50 of fuel which is 8km per liter. I am a spirited driver by d way always giving the car some speed , and i usually drive at 120km/h -140km/h on daily basis. So my current setup has power for my driving and enough torque through out the rpm range. Straight flow setup only gives high end power which is usually after 3000 to 4000 rpm, before that car feels sluggish. I dont have that problem now as my power band has dropped , i get nice flow of power from as low as 2000rpm. Another problem i can assume is engine condition , my car is currently at 160 000km and this are my results if yours is lower or higher it may vary depending on engine condition , also try and use semi synthetic oil for your engine , im using castrol magnatec 10w-40 and it keeps my car engine feeling light and responsive. I also added a drop in k&N air filter for better flow of air. [/QUOTE]
