V-Power has just gone up by 13sen per litre a few days back. I don't know where this is heading, but coupled with the soon to be implemented fuel subsidy by vehicle cc, things don't look bright and shiny at the other end of the tunnel nervous.gif

Economy is not too bad... but the gov is broke bcoz petronas income has plunged meanwhile our gov is bigger than ever
Twister
Petronas money half goes to F1, the other half into pocketsssssssssssssss... where got balance ??
If the petrol subsidy is based on car capacity.... 2.0 ltr cars will get hit the 1st coz 99% of Mal boleh cars all below 2.0 !! mage.gif

blush.gif Yes King is right..Petronas income has plunged as fuel prices is not has high as last time...BUT when Petronas income goes up due to fuel hike our petrol prices too goes up. Man on the stree suffers. But if the country's Income is not good..Other taxes come to play. It's the devil and the deep blue sea.

So far, is there any EvoX owner here running on non-VPower?
What will happen if lower RON (lower than V-Power) is used for the car?

from wat i last heard and understand from bro Tango d minimum EVOX can run on is V-Power....nothing less than that....
I think it's stated for at least RON98 (even V-Power only RON97+).... sleep.gif

Not a problem...we just need to detune the ECU to run on RON97. Obviously the end result would be a slight reduction in the bhp figures but torque remain unchanged and that's what most important to me thumbsup.gif Or if you want to translate this into numbers...0kmh-100kmh acceleration remain unchanged at 4.1 seconds but top speed would be reduced from 300+kmh to about 280kmh. Therefore, the joys of overtaking and attacking corners remain unchanged. As far as my highway cruising is concerned, I don't go more than 100kmh...so the reduction in top speed ability is not an issue with me. Nevertheless, top speed ability is a very very subjective matter among SD's at LGTC 2410_batting_eyelashes.gif

A big no no would be to continuously use RON97 without detuning. Immediate result would be loss of power and torque. Long term result...valve seats are going to give way, piston seals and even eventually cracked pistons...an X owner's worst nightmare sad.gif

It's ok to use RON97 on an emergent basis but one has to resort to V-Power as soon as is practicable. By the way, V-Power in Malaysia is RON99 (Gasoline/Benzin RON98 and above is blue in colour unlike Gasoline/Benzin RON97 and below varies from yellow to light green). It is stated RON97+ for economic reason. End result is us consumers are the biggest beneficiary from this underdeclaration.
