Had my 4x4 M/T Eve for 2.5 years now. Average fc is 6.5 kms/liter city driving. Most economical was 8 kms/liter on provincian trips. Highest consumption is at 4 kms/liter on offroad treks with lots of 4-Low travel.
With just a three or four passengers and no loads, it really is bumpy at the back. That's a compromise that's necessary. (With softer springs, it would sag if you load it up). But take on 7 passengers and the ride is really comfy.
If you want to improve the ride, install adjustable Procomp 6 shocks at the rear. You get rid of the bumpiness.![]()

You can recover the cost of the exhaust in 1 1/2 - 2 years, depending on kms traveled per year, because your fuel consumption will improve. You don't have to step on the accelerator hard to attain a certain speed. Overtaking is easier.
The reason here is that with bigger exhaust, the turbo spools earlier and faster which practically removes the already minimal turbo lag and increases the boost for a higher hp.
This is true for all turbocharged engines.
BTW, don't forget to upgrade your air intake for better airflow.

Kaya naman pala familiar eh, ikaw pala si forged.. Hehehe.. Sulit talaga ang exhaust upgrade, not only will your FC get better, performance wise, it will also dramatically increase..
I'm cancelling my order of montero and buying an everest. What do you think guys? Still confused.
Thanks.
...go for where your heart beats!
