XLR8 1st Gear February 20, 2005 Share February 20, 2005 From what I understand, volt stabs, grounding etc works better on old cars or if you're a deep I.C.E fanatic. If you're looking for fuel savings or performance improvement, then this aint gonna help. A fren of mine installed this cyclone thingy on his lancer MX and threw it away after awhile. Dont mind me but I think the improvement is very very minimal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
En0203 2nd Gear February 20, 2005 Share February 20, 2005 (edited) cyclone 2 is not going to do much help in fuel saving. the best way to get good FC is to control ur right foot try to stay within 2k rpm and accelerate gradually for better FC voltage stabilizer is not going to help on FC either like what bro relak has mentioned ur 323 is 1.3L one or 1.6L one? we have plenty of 323 drivers here, expect them to come in anytime to help u Edited February 20, 2005 by En0203 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Normal_aspirated Clutched February 20, 2005 Share February 20, 2005 (edited) yr 3 yr old 323 should get FC ard 12.5 to 15Km/L depending on yer right foot. u need at least 3 pcs of cyclone2 to work, $110 x 3 = $330.00, very exp., leh. u wanna try almost free "beerclone", only cost u a can of beer or 3 cans for that matter. check out this website: http://zerospeed.curvedspaces.com Voltage stab and grounding cables, go for it. Fuel savings for new cars nowadays, will be cancelled out by the ECU. Some minor horsey gained is a bonus.....

Ecaf Neutral Newbie February 20, 2005 Share February 20, 2005 hallo fellow 323er! like wat the other brudders have mentioned, the best fuel-saving method is to control ur right foot. so far my right foot has given me avg of 12km/l for my auto 323 protege others include regularly checking ur tyre pressure, and don't switch on aircon too cold i believe all these will save u some cents on petrol, and hey, they all do not cost anything as well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ecaf Neutral Newbie February 20, 2005 Share February 20, 2005 the funny thing about the advertisements on most of these products is that all of them claim "improve fuel consumption". u name it.. air chargers, volt stabs, capsules.. the only reason i wanna install volt stab and grounding is to get colder aircon and better audio. it's getting hot these days..

Normal_aspirated Clutched February 20, 2005 Share February 20, 2005 (edited) voltage stab & grounding oso makes our ride engine quieter, better throttle response.....quieter ambience in the cabin, plus cooler aircon (dun forget Buddyclub aircon additives).....
