New Mitsubishi Strada [ARCHIVED]

louchua,

i don't know if it will totally eliminate the lag because the turbine geometry is still the same. Turbo lag is caused by the delay of the turbine vanes to spin fast enough to produce boost. But i think the chip will definitely improve off-boost response since it is tuned to improve the power and torque throughout the powerband. You'll still feel that kick once the boost starts to build up at 2000rpm but as I've said, there will be more power during off-boost.

Give us a feedback if you push thru with the upgrade bro....

mr thumper, im interested on how you improvised and installed the rubbermaid actionpacker. i just saw it sa true value, ang laki, 48 gals, pwedeng pwede na. medyo namamahalan ako sa utility box ng carry boy.

also, is it just me or parang i feel na mahina aircon ng strada....

TIA

welcome mabangis!

in what way mahina aircon ng glx? simula ba ng una ganyan na yan?

GLX owners,

do u have the same problem? Ang GLS kasi wala naman problem pagdating sa AC system.

hmmm... the clicking problems are found to be on the Outie in the U.S.

I think there is nothing to replace in your strada sir... There's something wrong about it in the factory which did made a confusion while installing it.

here's my take... print this and bring it to your dealer. Baka same problems found in U.S. Outie's.

Wally, Guy^,

Paki-update kami kung anong naging dipirensya sa steering system and possible cause. I would understand that rack and pinion is less sturdier than re-ciculating ball for off-roading. But in Wally's case, he's never even driven it off-road and it happened at <5k kms. I've driven mine for 17k kms on and off-road and so far, no steering issues.
