No need lah, just switch to sports mode and there you go! Save the S$300.

well said!! i am one of those who had spend a bomb on mod to increase power

in the end, car is so rough that is not drivable. now my car is fully stock. learned my lesson already.

want more power get a more powerful car, pointless to mod here and there and upset the balance of the car

which the manufacturer has spend million on R & D to balance the car.

 

 

Good that u wake up early and not fell to those snake oil product. The money spent on mods is equivalent to upgrading to a new more powerful car.

 

A good example, last time my buddy spent 40k on his E60 520.... just to achieve some power increase. He could had spent the 40k to upgrade to 525 or 530. In the end, he ditch the ride and buy a turbo car... 3 yrs and no regrets.

guys,

 

how to increase perfomance to a car without any bolts ons, i have tried TB cleaning, engine flushes. seems like it will only last for a certain period of time and the effenicy decreases over time

 

No bolt ons? This means no TC/SC right?

 

Then only way is to increase RPM or displacement.

 

As others have said, there is no replacement for displacement. Unless you rev your engine till 8-9K RPM like the Hondas, nothing you do will gain you much power.

Anyone way is to reduce weight. By reducing overall weight, you boost performance.

how many kg can you remove?

unless the figure is in the hundreds, i doubt there will be much improvement

Change to new engine, new gear box & new clutch. It is like reformatting the hard drive, sure to perform at 100% for a while.
