Cause on Hyundai's case when they upgraded their units to R-eVGT owners didn't experience this kind of ... " problems "

Hyundai didn't only upgrade their turbo charger from VGT to eVGT but also the fuel injector from a normal solenoid to piezo injector and at the same time they used different control chips for the new eVGT engines.

hehehe... trust me, the decal and bumpers depicted are probably not-so-liked by MMPC product planners... and neither do I.

personally i still have to see a VGTarian Strada myself and observe if it is smokey!

Sana nga wala. I really like the Strada, lalo na yung TOTL. Kaya medyo nakakadisappoint IF maguusok siya.

Pero yung Montero kasi,.. hehe, di ko trip eh. Sorry sir TC ! :hiya:

*ian : Sana nga bro ! Sana nga. :pope:

Old style yung rear bumper pero mas matibay yan. Mabigat nga lang. Personally, hindi bumagay, mas ok yung dati. :0

Pero ganda nung decals niya ah, interesting to see what ther color combination they would do for the different car color.

**renzo_d10** · April 30th, 2011 06:54 PM

yun nga eh. old style kaya di bumagay. mas maganda pa yung rear bumpers na kinakabit ng TACP. hehehehe. yung itim na steel.

Got a non-VGT Montero and a VGT Strada.

Mas mausok pa Montero namen, and no, hindi siya mausok even at full throttle.
Then again, 1K+ kms palang yung unit.

Actually, they almost perfected it already. They have already fixed up the flaw that was seen on the previous 2.5L D4D units. Kaya they think that this is already okay.

Frankly, for me I support them. Cause some other brands, namely the Mitsubishi Montero, yes they upgraded to the new VGT technology already but what are you seeing on their TOTL variants ? Smoke. Smoke. Smoke. Heck, even at idle it releases so much smoke.

If ever Toyota will take on the next step and upgrade to VGT and will have the same outcome then by all means I`d still go to their old engine which is more " green " ....

I`m just hoping though that the VGT strada won't be the same.

Hey, Montero owners. Don't be mad at me. What I'm saying is the TRUTH. If Mitsubishi will just " tweak " their technology to be as green and as fast as the R-eVGT Sta. Fe's & Tucson then .. it will be much closer to perfection. ;)

Sir was just wondering... been reading the thread from quite sometime now. are you an engr working for toyota or hyundai? feels like you know alot about their line up specially their technology. if ever what do you think is the reason why the new montero spew out white smoke? also what made you said its not green? i guess all of this vehicles passed the emission test with fly colors even if they do spew white smoke. also if im not mistaken the only thing they change was the turbo. the whole platform is still the same from the previous models.

was just skeptical on how you base your assumptions regarding the "being GREEN" are these came from personal experience with the sta fe/tucson/hilux/fortuner/montero/strada? i mean whats the basis sir?

thank you.
