    starter and drive plate...seems sub standard yung galing hailand kaya yung new sets galing na sa japan though not all experience this pero medyo marami na ang may complain. usually pag na experience mo ang screeching / grinding / cranking sound mag start na sya sa second try. pero since pinalitan naman ng casa better papalitan mo na din kasi ako after napalitan nasa 2k kms na wala na ako na experience ng unusual sound sa starter.

    ya most often than not the engine starts on the 2nd attempt after failing thats why i didnt press them about it due to the intermittent nature of the problem

    so how long do we have to wait to have those parts replaced?

    it depends on your casa / dealer. if they have the parts they can replace it at your convenience. when I complained about the weird hard starting experience, my casa immediately schedule to replace the parts since they got a stock. I encountered the un usual sound on my car below 500 kms odo reading it was replaced before it reaches 600 kms not on its 2k+ reading so far so good.

    This thinking irks me so much.
    well, it's being corrected right now. if it irks you, go get another car.

    I'm surprised that they got such good gains from the combo. When we were testing prototypes for the intake, there was a gain of 2-3 hp, but a big dip in torque. Seems they've sorted it out, or the header cancels out the dip.
