Dyno Killers

This asshole almost blow up my dyno machine sia! I can still watch in my mental projector that dirty smirk on his face. basket, almost grinning, almost laughing, that look is like nevana on earth.

Car spools so hard that you cant see the meters. car went waaaarrp, waarrpp... 0~100 in less than 5s. OMG, the best part? Its just a Vios.

I'm starting to compile my list of banned Dyno user, you assholes belong to the Dyno Killer club. My daqplus 22 dyno is rated at 800 WHP x 4.

Yes, this ride produces so much torque, if not for the extremely light 950kg chassis, the clutch would definately be a problem. Its a good thing I used good gearbox oil for this ride......

Anyway, chill, we all had load and load of fun and laughter.... btw, sean you're also on my banned list. kekekeke.... fark you all....



cheers my ass....

Stock Lancer 1.5 EX Tuned




Here's a completely stock Lancer EX with Unichip tuning:)

Lancer CS3 with VF24 Balls Bearing Tuibo

After lotsa of retification and hardwork, we finally got the job done, boosting modestly, the turbo kicks on around 4000 rpm, thats to the owner's request to have the normal 0~4000 rpm driving as per usual, except when on high rpm around 4000 he wants the turbo to kick in.

Not a problem!

Balls bearing turbo are famed for quick spools and selection of turbo to match the entire setup is crucial to the success of the setup. 175 Wheel horsepower is approximately 201 bhp on engine, you basically add another 10~15% more horses to get this number.

Boosting way below its limits, ensures Durex safe settings with extra loads of spermicides for that safe orgamic feeling without any unwanted issues. VF24 Ball bearing turbo,... quite rare and quite fun to have.

Owner is someone who wants the job done neat and clean. Making sure every amount is well spent.

Overall, I must admit, the Lancer GLX has still lots of potential on the stock internals, and hitting a 200 bhp on engine is a real cause for celebration.

Stay tuned as I follow up with a couple of more fun cars, meanwhile, stay fun and safe sexing.

Adrain's 2.0 WRX


For starters, the interior looks fabulous. Not the seats damn it, the audio system. Because I know nuts about audio, the only question I asked, "er... this one very expensive ah?" lolz...

"Yah..."... was the answer


Lame hor...


Dunno what type of system la, but got one vacuum tube inside, 2 meter like wipers moving to the tone of the music, damn shiok... only thing was it was tuned bad.


anyway,... there are still things to be done on this 360 WHP 2 Litre WRX. Ah fah thinks its damn shiok to drive it, to rev till 8000 rpm is something worth masturbating about.


Well, heres the chart, as mentioned, there are still some hardware which needs to be sorted out, but that, we can do it when we all feel its time to do it.... easy does it man...


overall, its real cool to had increase a good 90~100 WHP from the previous tune.... :)


enjoysss..... Like what my dear fren say, "Shiok!" lolz...

From James....

With permission from the writer.... heres an email which I really felt had flare and very well written... I you guys would enjoy it as much as I do man... lolz...

Hi Joseph,

After reading your blog, i was amaze by you giving so much more punch to the machine. i was wondering whats went wrong to my set up with emanage blue tuned! I have been asking/ searching / reading / about modding which is better and true gain for my Honda Stream RN6. So had decided to have a light setup for my ride before get tune,

Open pod gave me bad impression for my previous ride so i stay stock with drop in K & N filters No C.A.I. using aftermarket header with high flow cat & approve Fuji's exhaust. D1 throttle controller and R.S.M that's all.. my friend intro me to "XXXXXXX" tuner my first thought was wahh... XXXXXXX lei! should no issue to him since the product is made in Jipun! decided made an appointment with the tuner. The day had come i was so excited how my ride would be over the week-end sure have lots of fun with it!


Operation had started, watching them installing.. THEN.. XXXXXXX catches my eyes, he seem like 1st timer doing it man looking at the manual book and searching tapping the wire makes me start to worry!! to let myself not to think too much i went for kopi and back in an hour time, just nice they had done up the wiring and preparing for tuning.


Its fun time!! My Stream start yelling covering my ear and watching them doing, praying hard for improvement on torque & some bhp increased and "Vtec" controlled! Saw the tuner keep pressing the keyboard very fast and hard!! after every each hard ram, his head keep shaking! it seem like they are facing some problem! didn't see using his laptop for tuning keep looking at the monitor and shake head... the process was about 8min nia and stop!.. he walk towards me and told me the gain was "0"%! wat the ..... dammm... my mine total empty! ask him what is the problem how come no gain at all??? the only answer he gave was "Honda" cars is like that wan, if you lucky can gain 0 - 3% max to 5%bhp! My mind start telling me knn ecu is like "tikam" ahh, if lucky to get this ecu i can get gain not lucky no gain ahh! Lucky draw ahh! request to check and re-tune, replay with checked and tuned to the best already!

Sooo sad... after waiting for hours money spent and nothing further can be done the best part is 0 gain!! cry all way home for shower keep thinking there sure something wrong, if nothing wrong must be giving me short cut service! Impossible with these light mod & emanage blue tuned was 0% gain.


Give my ride a test, floor board all the way feel like pumping very hard liao but butt not moving every gear change pull up very slowly seem like very heavy loaded only the exhaust sound louder nia hear the sound like monster machine but slow like turtle, try a week later with higher octane petrol, same same... start to search about emanage and understand more about this piggy nothing much in return. very disappointed with the result and some how feel like giving up
coz come to concept still a auto car cannot expect too much on it.

Yesterday night nothing to do, search again lor and somehow link into your blog, after reading some article and get to search on stream, Oh Yes there were some reviews on stream! i had read all of them. I like you wrote:
"we felt the car can do better with a more personalized mapping. I felt the mapping is very much across the board kind of tuning, which works for most cars, but in my opinion, if we can do a more personalized mapping, we can maximize the full potential of this ride."

"We guessed that if honda is going to put in a mapping like our, many would have felt that the honda stream is a little too aggressive for grandpa."

"Stream is quite detuned with it comes out from the factory. Expect a more 'vtec' like car after tuning with minor stage 2 modifications." and many more.. Sorry for the copy and paste without your notice. This had make my ride alive again! if possible would like to have some technical advise and appreciate is there any time slot for me to drive down for you guys to do a check on the wiring connection and advise from you guys why with this light mod with tune is a 0 gain?!?


Thank You.
Steady bom pi pi writer...

Lancer CS5 boost up

Heres a very stock lancer CS5. Car came stock with original turbo, everything inside is basically stock, so, what we wanna do here is to retain everything as is, except, increase the horsepower a little... :)

We wanna retain the original look and feel of the car, nothing spectacular, just a normal day-to-day ride, except, with more horses under the bonnet to have so quick thrill with...

Heres the Dyno chart. Tuned using Unichip Q. We added a good 35 more wheel horsepower to this ride! Thats roughly another 50 bhp on engine... good enough for a stock ride I must say...



The lowest line is actually with the boost controller offed, that about 0.5 bars of boost. The middle line is low boost, the top line is nevana boost, but still on the safe side, no worries :)

07 Forester re-tuned with faulty vf22 turbo

Heres the chart



And yes, the turbo is faulty.... the fella who tuned this car is so horribly done, I almost fainted. The tune was so bad, it wasnt possible to do a before-after run... shocking how bad the tune was.... for one, its not even possible to rev past 4k rpm!

anyway... after hours of redoing the entire map, the car is completed. However, it would be better if he had a newer turbo on board during the tune...

Boost is at modest levels due to the turbo's performance. untill next time....

Auto WRX with bigger turbo



Little did I know that this ride was previously tuned by another famous tuner. Well, I was initially informed to do a before and after run.

Red Line indicates before re-tuning, the green line is after 1 hours of tuning, the final run shows a delta of 78 bhp increase.

Boost level remains the same before and after. Except now, during test drives, at 3000 rpm, the car already felt very very light and mind you, there is no DBW to bullshit around, its the old school cable type that requires accurate tuning and that ah pek theories on pushing the car.... this ride's turbo now spools very much earlier, max torque and power is now 800 rpm earlier. With this, every gear pulls hard and pulls all the way to 8000 rpm.

Auto tranny make the drive so simple and after test driving around, I got damn addicted to the power.

Pure clean power.

Ride came with maps from famous tuner, branded big mama top-mount intercooler, intercooler pisser, I forgot what filter he using, I also forgot to take photo.... hiaz...

anyway, more to cum....

Sean's Monster

Like frankenstien, Sean's GC8 is coming alive!!!

Last night, it all came alive, each of us like little children took turns to play on this marvelous ride. At low boost, your eyes are glued to the front, no time to looks at meters really!

well, for now, I'll keep the specs a secret, we're trying to get it done in time to Mettle race this year end.

excitements brewing...... oh, sneak peek on this ride? 1000 bhp!

Honda EK4 with Hondata

I initially wanted to put the title as Honda EK4 on rampage, but I thought it would sound so lame I might change my blog to Shower Express instead. Yeah, thats what Ah fah told my suppliers, Shower Express sia lolz..... the supplier almost fainted, we laughed till shit came out man....

Anyway, heres the Dyno Charts for before and after.


What happened previously was the car drove like a frog. It literally hopped from place to place, I mean, it was so damn bad, the tune was literally a punishment. Tuning Hondata standalone ECU is a joy. Mainly because it is simple to tune and to make the car run like the wind, thats simple.

Owner SMS me yesterday, man, I tuned his car last week and only yesterday he sms me that he revved till 9k and the car felt no lag, just kept going!

Nice! No DBW to bluff people man, this old man's car still runs on cable and to make the ride sprint is like asking grandpa to fark again in his 90s. lolz... aww... just kidding...

ok, stay tuned, more to come... :)

almost forgot... the main reason why this ride can pull so hard, well.... when the bloody vtec kicks in, it has another 4000 RPM worth of solid Vtec to keep your bloodshot eyes wide like the full moon!

Real coolz ride....

Kia Picanto Turbo!!

Heres when it first arrived. It was tuned by someone else, the tune was so good, it felt so good, it felt like stock. The turbo was spooling a good amount of high boost but the pulls was so fantastic, it seriously felt totally stock. I dunno about you but, to be able to tune the ride till stock is damn power lor... lolz...

Heres how the dyno chart looks like...



Ok, owner was sadden by many hiccups during this horrific period that agony and anguish beyond tears, beyond words. He loved his ride man, I mean seriously, someone who enjoys what he does and with care built this ride to something wonderful. But, the tune was something which saddens him tremendously. It wasnt like that before.......

When we went on the dyno, all we wanted was a smoother ride. I didnt have much of a choice since the hardware was equally wonderful, there is nothing less but a proper tune to make the best of the hardware.

From 68 bhp, we touch a good 88bhp. As I looked at the dyno graphs, it wasnt even close to optimal. However, the owner was already all smiles! Damn stress lor... at 88, the ride is already above the 50% margin on base 50 bhp, and looking at the hardware begging to go beyond, short changing the ride would mean a ride that drives like a camel.

The moment we hit the 108bhp figures on a turbo charged picanto, my guys scream!! "Huat ah!!" Meng zhai bellowed!! hand punching in the air, I too joined in the wonder! The whole workshop was filled with cheers and laughter! OMG, 108bhp on a turbo charged picanto, it is beyond expectations.

Power band is now extremely smooth, with G forces at work from 3000 rpm to 4800 rpm! When the owner was testing the ride, he zoomed past my workshop and I chanced a glance at his all smiling countenance!

As he was telling me how happy he was, I could feel inside him, he was extremely satisfied.

Here we have a nicely done up Kia Picanto Turbo. Truely Small and Mighty.

"Can Fly!!" was the sms I got after the owner went home that evening.... :)
