2011 Mitsubishi Montero Sport [ARCHIVED]

[renn114]

talaga bang nakakareduce ng ingay ang deadening mats like dynamat and sonus?

Has anybody used these on their MS?
Any improvements on the NVH?

[renn114]

double post...

OT: May friend akong ahente ng Toyota sabi this year na lalabas ang Toyota Fortuner. Dati kasi binalitaan niya ako tungkol sa Alphard mga 3-months after lumabas nga yung Alphard.

How reliable is your source sir? Nakapagtanong din po ako sa mga Toyota SA's pero walang makapag sabi or confirm kung may lalabas ngang new Fortuner at kung kaylan? Puro speculations lang po.
Baka naman, marketing strategy lang nya yan to hold off some prospective MS buyers...

Dynamat's first and foremost use is for reducing car audio vibrations thumping at your doors at moderate-high levels. Yun reduction in road noise is merely an added extra.

However, you'll KNOW if you're in a Dynamat-treated car compared to a stock car. There's an apparent difference. However, it definitely won't turn your Monty into a Benz

Results vary though. Most luxury vehicles have enough NVH insulation that it makes padding them with Dynomat kinda a waste. However, if you're going to pad... let's say, a Toyota Revo.. ibang usapan na yun :D very apparent na yun difference.

As for the Monty, I think the noise deadening is good enough. I kinda liken it to the Fiesta's deadening. Not too much (Camry), not too little (Mazda2). It's somewhere near the middle-little region. Personally, I wouldn't Dynomat it unless you're an audiophile where there is an immediate difference in sound reproduction.

OT: As for my Sonata's that's arriving this week, would I Dynomat it? Most probably yes even though the deadening is good. Actually, it simply depends whether the doors will rattle at a medium-high volumes. Like I said, if you're going to do a sound setup, results are immediately apparent.

'Would certainly agree sir that " it definitely won't turn your Monty into a Benz" .
IMO, there's still no substitute for better car design and materials used by Benz.

Anyhow, i guess the more appropriate question would be; is it worth the pesoses spent for installing the dynamat on the MS?

Have the chip modified to increase power of the 3.2 engine. The 2011 GT-V has 5 speed automatic transmission though, it might be more fuel efficient.

sir, would using such an upgrade cause premature wear on the engine? I have been thinking about that kind of modifications for awhile now.

[Expatio]

Hmm, possible but I doubt it. Possible since maliit lang physical structure difference ng D4BH sa 4D56 but I doubt that they'll use the same VGT now that Hyundai is one step ahead with their eVGT technology.

The difference between eVGT and VGT makes no difference to engine power as explained back in this thread. They are both controlled by the ECU. eVGT is cheaper to produce but expensive when problems occur as oftentimes the whole turbo has to be replaced.

There are several reasons why the 2.2 Hyundai is more powerful than the 2.5 Mitsubishi, then main one being that the 4d56 has been around for years in one form or another and was originally designed before common rail, ecu management etc. It even had VGT in the pajero sport some 9 or 10 years ago. It had only 98hp back in the late 80s/early 90s to 178hp now (or over 200hp with CR box). It was built with robustness in mind.

The Hyundai/Kia engines are fairly new in comparison to the 4D56, and were first designed and built in the age of more powerful common rail and ECU management. But they were no means first with either VGT or crdi.

But to say Mitsubishi are a step behind Hyundai/Kia is an untruth. Because they continue to use an engine originally developed over 20 years ago is a testament to it's design in the first place. Sure it will be replaced in the next five years as countries require more stringent rules on emmissions.

Mitsubishi also have a more modern super clean engine as used in the ASX and Lancer (not here in The PH). It is only a mere 1.8L and produces 150hp and 300Nm (The 4N13). There is also a 2.2 with 177PS and 380NM (The 4N14)

I still think there is too much sulphur in our diesel for these super clean engines.

Kanya kanyang hilig lang yan, The owner is aware of the consequences of having a BIG DUBS.. Its more on the aesthetics side rather than serving its purpose.. zix 888 also has a pajero fieldmaster sittin on DUBS " 26 , I think they have a group known as " size matters "

Had a 145kph at 3,500rpm today on a stock GLS-V.... ahh.... such a nice feeling.

What's your top speed mga sirs?

That's great! Sir Pogy; kumusta naman po handling at that speed?
Tapos na po ba kayo sa break-in period nyo (1st 1000 kms)?
Okay lang ba i-hataw ng ganyan kabilis even during the break-in period palang ng MS?

[gti277]

I had mine too at 150kph pero sandali lang...Every start up, the 1000km PMS reminder shows on the LCD screen. Nasa 800kms pa lang naman. So I called SA and he told me na pwede na raw pa PMS sa 800kms. I might bring it this week to Citimotors, sabay na installation of rear fogs.

[a-2]

ako 180kph at sctex yesterday pero sandali lang hehe. 2010 gls sedona red owner here.

Mostly due to lens distortion. If wide angle lens (or zoom setting) was not used and the photo was taken on a level plane standing up, it would not look so disproportionate

Oh. Ok. Not into photography.

As long as it is set up properly by a professional, there won't be problems.

wala pa. i'm still at 550kms. dats why up to 3,500rpm lang ako pag humataw! i can not wait to reach it at 4,000rpm after 1,000kms. Handling feels like a Car. 2 thumbs up!
Pag first 500kms ko below 3,000rpm lang ako. Tama ba mga bros yung pag break in ko?

[SiRbossR]

If i may ask, I've seen few Montero Sports non-VGT having rear disc breaks, what model are these? Are they still available?

4x4s have rear discs

Hi Pogy_uy. Am glad you like it. Safe driving imong amigo.
No sign of mine yet. Could be this week though
