    for Turbo diesel peeps i have a new way to increase boost on turbos without using washers, manual boost control for less than hundred bucks. this was revealed to me by a race car driver.

    will compose it first hirap i explain.

    Without any of those turbo upgrade....I would suggest a free-flowing air-filter like k&n.... a CAI set-up or a snorkel set-up para mas malakas at mas malamig hangin sa engine.
    What do you mean free-flowing air filter? Eto ba ung simota cone air filter type?

    1. Palitan ng gas engine
    2. Taasan ang wall ng bahay
    3. Bigyan ng Beats by Dr. Dre ang lahat ng kapitbahay.

    It's pretty hard to bring down NVH levels on a practical scale. Best to keep your engine well maintained (alaga sa change oil, mounts are in good condition, etc.) and just minimize revving or idling your vehicle at home.

    every 5k naman ako nagcha-change oil and filter..

    tanung ko na din, meron ako 2004 kia pregio. ok lang kaya na wala yung front pipe combined with pre-silencer. see nyo po yung pics

    eto yung nasa manual


    eto yung sa kia pregio ko...wala yung no.2

    If you have a turbo diesel, Lots.

    I like to think of my Elgrand as the Fastest van in the Philippines 0-100 in about 8.3 seconds with tire loosing traction at 80kpm at the up shift

    our trucks use coco methyl ester... 1%...
    tried it on my ride.. nagulat ako sa result..
    less smoke... more power... nawala yung nginig???

    yes magtataka din kayo diba? may effect ba talaga 1% lang.. and our diesels are advertised naman with biodiesel na... 1 or 2% yata...
    baka masyado konti nilalagay nila.. at hindi totoo yung nakalagay...

    i am not a believer.. but nag request driver ng elf namin... kapitbahay daw kasi namin gumagamit and wala usok mga truck nila.. and malakas makina... mataas po kasi ramp ng warehouse namin.. pag umaakyat truck minsan bwelo sila.. nahirapan daw umakyat yung kapitbahay namin... pag umaakyat bali wala...

    nung ginamit nila... masaya naman sila.. and positive response naman.. kaya i tried it on my gen2 pajero... una ko naramdaman.. pag start.... nabawag vibration... then.. more power nga.. pag tingin ko rearview... nabawas usok kahit humataw..

    im not a seller of biodiesel... just a positive review:D


    btw... dagdag po kayo k&n filter... pag k&n sakin kayo bumili.. yan seller ako niyan.. hehe
    pros:
    pwede paulit ulit gagamitin itong filter kaya less gastos
    less restriction = more power and less usok (pag barado na kasi filter.. try niyo.. maitim usok ng sasakyan)
    suck noise.. hehe ok ito sakin.. kayalang baka hindi gusto ng ibang tao.. hehe
    cons:
    cost(dagdag gastos)
    no replacement but kailangan parin linisin... and hindi ito tangal.. tapon kabit bago. (lilinisin.. patutuyuin at lalagyan ng langis) kaya may waiting time and + cost ng cleaning kit (pero maraming gamitan naman ang cleaning kit) hehe

    You may want to check out BMC Air Filters

    Why replace your original air filter with a BMC air filter?

    Long life: can be cleaned and reused, no replacement needed;
    Wider filtering surface;
    Maximum air permeability;
    Greater retention and screening;
    Better "Pressure Drop" ratio;
    International test approval;

    Dayumn, man. 8.3 seconds means about 200, 250 hp minimum? Now I want to see your van.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    Yeah it's close to 200 might be more since I cranked up the boost to 23psi, That video was on 15psi of boost. Plus the van weighs over 4000lbs.

    We'll hopefully I will be back in mid to late march. Finally got something I can use to add more fuel over the MAF sensor curve and tuning software that will work though the consult data port on my Elgrand, I'm getting both just in case the software has issues sticking in the ECU. Since the Elgrands injection pump is controlled by the MAF it's the only way to add fuel. I use 7gph of water injection and DIY LPG fumigation set up I have been installing for 15 plus years.

    FYI same guy makes our DVC water injection controllers.

    This supports Hertz and voltage.
    https://www.easyperformance.com/prod...p?cookietest=1

    He has multiple color options.


    Our new AFC 3 module essentially allows the user to program in a custom
    recalibration profile for the MAF sensor. For voltage based MAF sensors, you
    can adjust the output voltage to be what you need for any air flow rate
    measured by the sensor. It divides the voltage scale (0.5 volts to 4.5
    volts) into 14 segments that can the correction value individually adjusted.


    The tuner kit I found.
    This just monitors
    ECUTalk - Consult Cables

    This one tunes uses the same cable.
    NismoTronic

    These are for Nissan only,

    Actually, vibration is one of the main culprits of added noise created by diesel engines so it's a good place to start (checking your exhaust and adding more flexi pipes or resonator). Try to run it up on a lifter and observe as well.

    What tires are you running on now? Crazy 1st-2nd gear wheel spin there.

    Those JDM vans are quite fast buggers when i encounter them on NLEX. They can run real hard all the way to around 160kph (i guess after that the drag and vehicle height comes into play more).

    Well I don't know how fast my van goes, I need to use the GPS on my phone next time, I can bury the needle at 180kph and it's still going faster. Had Yokahamas on there, 3 had side wall blow outs during my 2 month trip, will never buy them again there were only 1.5 years old. I got goodyear now.

    It is fun to drive, My in-laws get terrified when I hammer on it lol.

    Man, I gotta go see your rig next time you're here. Wish the Crosswind had that much potential... perhaps with a 3.2 swap...

    *Vinj madaming salamat for the feedback/comment..kung may budget na eh padagdagan ko ng resonator ...same ba yun sa pre-silencer?

    You can direct the exhaust pipe of the Crosswind to the two rear tires and fake the tire smoke any time. :D

    dvldoc, if you get premium rubbers (of course this may affect load weight) and lightweight rims on, your Elgrand will be able to tame the wheelspin and give more acceleration at the low end.

    Should be the same. It comes in different sizes so you just have to match it with your exhaust at the shop.

    I am getting new rims when I get back since I now have two that are all scuffed up.


    Best easy mods for a diesel is a proper tune, You would be amazed how much power you can get by adjusting the fueling and adding a little boost.

    2nd. None restrictive air filtration system. (Simota works great for me) They can be washed but god after I saw how much black stuff came off mine after a year of use I just threw it out and got a new one they are only around 1200P.

    If you can aford to do so, A 2.5" or 3" down pipe depending on your vehicles power output.

    I have not really seen the big need to go with more than a 2.5" exhaust on most diesels there. If you look at a dyno 2.5" vs 3' exhaust they are almost the same.

    2T oil in your fuel makes a big difference in the older diesels.

    Manual boost controller if you have a turbo makes a world of difference. I have found oem turbo actuators to be lacking in making linear boost they are all over the place when you put them on a dyno especially the new VGT versions.

    If you have a non-common rail electromechanical injection pump like mine you really can't adjust your fueling without the items I posted earlier which allow you to change your fuel curve electronically, This would work well on the 1zkte engine, non-common rail ZD30 engines, the QD32ETI motor or any other non common rail that uses a MAF sensor. You won't get as much power as say a chipit, or Dchip but for us those are not a option.

    Not considering marketing the air-fuel controller? There might be a market for that here, however small.

    I could if I wanted to, Jim does make our Devilsown controllers that's until we switch fully over to the new ones. So I can get them at cost, Anyone interested in one (got to have a MAF sensor) A engine like the 1KZTE, ZD30 and of course the Elgrand, the older Kia carnaval vans ect can use this to make extra power. I should be back there in March for about 2 1/2 months or so. I will be at Speedlab for a downpipe then Berrima for a dyno tune.

    Feel free to PM.

    Doc you may want to ship BD28 filters when you go here.
