And sa panahon ngayon ts di na usi mga 13+km/L maski nga honda city nag8km/L sa city kasi traffic eh tapos mga 18km/L sa highway brand new pa yun
Alto at prius lang makakaabot ng ganyan unless sacrifice mo sarili mo w/o aircon which is really unthinkable sa weather na ganito

May 5th, 2012 12:08 AM #13Rechipping per se won't do much wonders. It simply readies the engine for real "tuning" to let the tuner modify your fuel and ignition map according to your modifications and intended application. On most Hondas, rechipping can only adjust the VTEC engagement point on the spot or lets you have VTEC (if done after a mini-me swap).
Remember, engine makes power using air, fuel and spark (ignition). Rechipping only won't modify them. Tuning will.

That's not possible ........ I own a 2000 Vti and I'm very satisfied with my FC. I wouldn't tinker the computer box to compensate my car's performance.

I suggest you do a thorough tuneup of your engine and perhaps get a K&N filter then drive smoothly. You'd get better mileage this way, and also a few more horses in the process.

With our current fuel na mayroon ethanol, na mabilis masunog at maubos & 1.6l displacement, malabo kahit 15km/l; only a diesel engine can accomplish 20ish because of diesel slow combustion & compression system. kahit palitan or reprogram ang ECU it will still balance the fuel to air ratio to make the engine efficiency, too much or little air/fuel, totope makina mo.
the triumph of man over... man!, using the crudest of implements (by modern standards).
