Hi Heng
Your Twin Surbo really works great on my Kia Cerato 1.6L. Good low-end torque, responsiveness and mid-range power. Seems like transforming my 1.6L to 1.8L or even 2.0L. Now I can travel easily side-by-side with those large displacement (>2.0L) cars when moving off from traffic lights without stepping too much on the gas pedal (which is $$$ considering recent fuel prices).
The Cerato is a very solid, heavy car (>1.25 tonnes) and with my new heavy 17" wheels, low-end (<3000 rpm) torque is even more critical for my car. Actually, earlier I regretted fitting the massive 17" wheels with low profile wide tyres...but now I think my choice was right...Surbo provides the POWER and the 17" tyres provide the control. As we all know: "Power without Control is Nothing".
When I'm in the mood for some fast driving, I love the press-release-press cycles to build up air pressure in the Surbo before going for the "rocket launch". I'm having lots of fun with Surbo!
