hindi pala! 60-70kph on the metro, 80 on highways. hehe

for some reason, i don't like pushing my engine too much. I usually shift when it hits 3000 rpm or kung nagoovertake, 3500.

i have a 2.5 tdic 4d56, at 3000 rpm in fifth gear, nasa 85 to 90 kmh lang ako and that is usually my limit. does the rpm and speed seem right?

anong ride mo? would you believe, sa dmax, 1500 lang rpm shift na agad ako? pag overtake, 2000 rpm. take advantage ko kasi yung max. torque, kaya matipid ako sa krudo. when cruising normally 80km/h * 2000 rpm lang. again, take advantage ko yung max. torque. bakit? kasi pag lampas ko ng 2000 rpm wala nang torque yun, puro horsepower na lang. saka wala pang maluwag na daan kaya sayang lang kung hindi ko maitutuloy-tuloy ang speed. =>

i have the pajero 2.5 tdic. the turbo of the pajero kicks in at 2000 rpm ata

i checked again kanina, mga 85 to 87 kmh, at 3000 rpm. i think that is where the bigger engine of the dmax has the advantage, same speed, lower rpm. 2.5 lang ang pajero ko vs the 3.0 oc the dmax. not to mention the 7 year difference in age of the engine

gusto ko sana ng dmax pero di kaya ng pitaka

medyo mahal nga dmax. pero worth it pare. oo mga 2000 rpm lang sipa na ang turbo. para ngang kotse, pag di nilubayan ang silinydor, bibirit. kaya lang hanggang ngayon pati pagda-drive ko para pa ring sa kotse, ingat sa lubak lagi. hehehe

bad trip pa kasi nagpaquote ako sa dmax 4x2, nasa 940,000 wala pang freight to Gen. Santos, so dagdag pa ng around 12 to 15 grand. maganda nga sya pero di talaga ma stretch ang budget. maybe in two years.

Sir Olive, an intercooler by itself will not increase fuel consumption. It just lowers the intake air temperature.

Of course, pag nag-enjoy ka sa added power ng intercooler equipped engine, lalakas ka talaga sa konsumo.
