Comments on McWell's Light Tune Package, anyone??

[Gary84]

I visited the webby liao...it's not tat lehz...thou i tink same function lor...The Monster i mmentioned works exactly the same as Capsule...If u know what im saying...

[Dwoon]

Then dunno liao.... heard that capsule thinggy works for some, not for others. But if you ask me personally, I fail to see how this thing can add horses.

 

Maybe throttle response but that is slightly different. The power curve is probably altered to reach max power earlier/faster? but overall HP is not increased.

Bro, the ATF Cooler is to prevent your Auto Tranmission Fluid from overheating hence resulting severe damages to your gearbox. It does not give you extra BHP I suggest you do up your exhaust and put on a piggy back like Bro Dwoon has said.

Any recommendation on which workshops to do the exhaust thingy?? And hw's the price like huh? U mean once the exhaust system is changed, car will haf more bhp??

[Gary84]

What the salesman told me was that their MV ATF Cooler selling at $258 has proven to be effective frm all his customers...And he gave me the assurance that once installed CONFIRM pickup gt improve....i abit suspicious sia....

[Mzrmazda3]

For exhaust thingy, you can check with Mann Exhaust. Heard many postive comments on him from my fellow Mazda drivers as compared to the other reputable workshops. Never hear before that installing an ATF Cooler will improve the pickup or maybe i'm Sua Gu Take note that Mcwell's prices are slightly on the high side

[Dwoon]

Wah lau eh....... this would be my 1st time hearing that ATF cooler can improve pickup...... (Lucky never claim to improve horses)

 

Well, perhaps from a different perspective. Unless your auto tranny is slipping because it cannot lock on well due to too much power at the crank..... then perhaps an ATF cooler would help in that sense, better/faster lockup and prevention of slip. But then again, its not proven and I'm just guessing. You don't have that issue, so its not gonna help in your pickup.

 

It'll help keep your ATF cool though to prolong its life and extend ATF change interval.

[Gary84]

thx man!

[Mzrmazda3]

No problem Bro

Hello Gary84

 

Please put your money in better options. The listed stuff are pretty useless especially if your car is AT. There were accidents history caused by E68 installation. Pivot is nothing compared to Hot Inazma or better known as HVS. probably items 1 and 4 can last you longer but why don't you spend less for stock filter and copper plugs and probably one change of items 1 and 4 can last you a lifetime of changing to stock for your ride.

Fong Kim is another popular workshop.

Wad kinda air intake?? I tinking of adding a Monster Air Charger in as well...U guys tink it's suitable?? And oso the salesman of McWell intro me into installing their Maximum Velocity ATF Cooler. He said proven to be very effective for auto cars..dunoe hw true issit...any bros can verify??

 

ATF Cooler is mainly for keeping your ATF temperatue low. Keeping it low so that the ATF works well without loosing its slippery effect. because oils will oxidise over time results in poor protection. I don't think is will give performance improvement.

hey bro.. i think for the time being..

So some research n ask around before jumping n doing yur car without knwing u spent too much.

No offence bro...

 

But y u get a automatic in the first place...

[Supra]

This thing doesn't give good horses and torque for ur car. Instead, it eat more fuel. Well, good tuning, sure eat fuel. But this McWell doesn't let u go anywhere. The E68 do help, for some. For me, rather then E68, I rather change to CAI which will let ur engine have more air and response up. Volt Stab is a must. If ur cabin light is blinking when driving, it's time to get one. Fuel charger ? Frankly speaking, this fuel charger, it needs 3 - 4 to have the effect. 1 isn't enough.

[Gary84]

Bro, wwads CAI huh? Thats y im tinking to add in Monster Air Charger...

[Phochem]

get a 2nd hand SAFC to fine tune ur A/F ratio. No pt takin out wat u've put in, treat in as decors for the engine bay. Before tat, an air filter and/or a legal muffler chg.

[Gary84]

changing an entire exhaust system cause alot rite?....Which do u recommend??

[Aleka]

the stabilizer n grounding are good for all stock cars. - can change

K & N filter is known to be good for air intake. - can change

E68 is not necessary if using K&N filter.- no need lah.

Spark plugs. Any new plugs w platinum or iridium will be better than stock ones, Of course can change to boost sparking power n durability.

Fuel charger. - can do without lah. get fuel regulator to tune your fuel intake.

 

your damage will be reduce.
