2014 Mazda 3

[justdiy]

The FC is the bonus after 8hrs of pure joy, I'm guessin'.

Nice FC sir Charlie. Not exceptional but nice.

If you really want to save fuel, run slow but steady.. I experienced 18-20 km/l when I ran 80kph consistently.

Wow nice 6.7 is good bro (I'm guessing it could do better, I bet you went ape **** from time to time �� hard not to) , I did 7-8 liters / 100 km , but driving like I stole the car . 7/8 is not bad considering I was shifting at 7k and leaving everyone behind . I love our Mazda 3 it's got looks and efficiency And now I have extra power (much more than a stock 2.0) . Enjoy the drive brothers ,just drive safe always

14.9 km/L is great for Manila-Bicol. [emoji1303]

Last time I went there I got 13.09 km/L with a Vios 1.3. My convoy, an Accent CRDi, got 17.5 km/L. Not so quick driving.

Previously with my Ranger 2.2, my best was 14 km/L with tame driving, 12 km/L with my normal driving.

Damn, 7-8 is awesome - and with the extra power? DAMMMMMMNNNN!!!!

SO nice that an international brand - and based from research, a very trusted one - has finally gotten a local arm here.

Not yet , but I don't expect much , have a heavy sound system , sound deadening, 19s. But even though I'm plagued by these mods the power is still impressive (can be felt so expecting .ore than 10 ......hopefully) I'll dyno when everything is over and update,I'm going on my 4th already

Do you still have your gen1 Three, jut sir? OVT has been tuning Mazdas long before the Skyactivs. Any interest in checking em out? FC & power can very well improve.

Waiting for dyno numbers (before and after tuning).

OVT never hurries w/ fuel trims & logs. Mat takes every tune w/ meticulous detail & care. It can take multiple logs & files til he sees perfection. What's amazing is that those who are in their initial tunes have expressed so much satisfaction that any progress on succeeding ones are considered bonus.
Like you, yatta sir, I'm awaiting numbers for the 1.5s...plenty done & proven 2.0s....but being far away from the capital, I have to seek something I'm not gifted w/....patience.
Any OVT plans, sir? It's reversible, affordable & the best bang for buck mod out there.

Done with Tune 2. Better throttle response and definitely an improvement from stock tune and Tune 1. But damn, i drove 1.5 engine on tune 5, it was waaaaayy better than my current tune! Felt like the car was very light and like it's almost close if not better than 2.0! Dyno will surely be available within the next few days since the one i drove on Tune 5 already got his final tune this week.

Glad to know that patience need not be sought, Geo brah. Thanks for the 1st hand reviews. I'm not very particular w/ top-end power, this car isn't seeing any track. I'd love to have better & more instant pull delivery down low...just for practical daily drive appreciation. Should FC improve, too...that'll be a welcome bonus.

Couldn't say that it was a review, Travs brah. It's more of a feedback from what I've had with my Tune 2. Couldn't comment though on FC as I've yet to put some miles with that tune. Honestly, I couldn't wait for my succeeding tunes. This mod really pays for itself. 🖒

Yup I still have it, but I don't have plans of tuning it right now. The 4AT is a poor fit for the engine - I have a hard time going past 180-190 kph because of the long gearing of the 4th gear. 3rd gear tops out at around 170 kph but since 4th gear is too long, I'm not at peak power when it shifts. [emoji29]

I also prefer modifying the driver rather than the car. I've got a long way to go before I can say that I've squeezed out every last second and maximized the cornering speed of any of my cars. [emoji28]

On point, sir! I agree that what needs to modified first is the driver then the car not the other way around. 😊

This wisdom, I don't disagree. Just glad that an option at refinement/enhancement for better driving & ownership experience from a known & trusted tuner is here, a text or call away....thing w/ those great guys behind OVTph...they're enthusiasts & Mown3rs 1st. Undeniably, a passion driven endeavor.
