Lately been neglecting the world of blogging and I admit that I do not have the mood and time in the this blogsphere. As from the previous entry, I had made up my mind to get my Proton Wira re-furnish to optimum performance and look. Most of the time lately been spending my surfing time into forums like Wira Owners Club a.k.a WOC and ZeroToHundred (ZTH) to get more insights and ideas on car modding.
My head now is full with jargons like valves, extractor, bullet, torque and so on. I am trying to setup a new blog for my Wira Project and I hope when my project really kick off I'll try to post up all the latest update and knowledge there.
So many questions is popping up in my mind and some how I need more advice and guidance to show me the way to a better car modding. Some of the questions are listed as below:-
By the way, my car little info:-
Made: Proton
Model: Wira 1.5
Year: 1995
Engine: Magma 12V
Transmission: Automatic
*Currently all of the trim and chassis (TC) are still in stock version.
Advices and guidances from all of you will be highly appreciated.
p/s: Try to get back my blogging activities back to normal mode soon.

So many questions is popping up in my mind and some how I need more advice and guidance to show me the way to a better car modding. Some of the questions are listed as below:-
- What type of air filter should I opt for? Drop in like my original or a open pod like "mushroom head"?
- What exhaust system should I use? What extractor? 4-2-1 or 4-1 system? A new bullet or a bigger muffler? S-flow good for AT?
- What ignition wire is good? What spark plug is good?
- Should my car need a voltage stablizer like Pivot or Zaptor? How about grounding cables?
- Can my car engine use full synthetic oil?
- Do my car need extra cooler for my automatic transmission fluid (ATF)?

soli lor bro, me no mechanic leh...I oni a small company sweeper nia, kenot help you!! but hor if your car ready ledi i can test drive for you geh.
wokeh?
ace, u want to become my test driver ah... wokeh! no problem la... wakakaka..
1. Opt for the mushroom. better air intake.
2. 4-2-1- gives better drag, meaning you can drag your car in 3rd gear further. 4-1 give better pick up when you press on the pedal.
3 most car mod centers have a ignition wire tester where you can compare the power of the sparks. opt for the stronger one.
4. grounding is better.
5. if your engine is in tip top condition, synthetic oil is good.
6. i don' think so.
all this modifications will come to nought if you don't tune back your engine afterwards. So get a good experience mechanic to tune back your engine after you have done all the modifications.
If you are around KL, go and pay SpeedWorks a visit. Can't remember where they are located or even if they are still around though.
