Nice to finally meet all you guys too.
My honest opinion of the powerkit. I think my initial expectations were set too high. As such, when finally behind the wheel, i felt the power to be too subtle at 0-60kmh but slightly more noticeable from 80-120kmh range. I was, to say the least, a little disappointed. But, once I climbed back into my car later, the difference felt more apparent. The powerkit's performance delivery was more linear n had greater urgency, esp in DS mode.
I think it's due to the bad test drive route chosen. Imagine traffic ard jln university area on a peak Saturday afternoon. The traffic one encounters at every attempted acceleration can b frustrating.
I will request for a longer test drive on a better route before I make my final decision. Will call the salesman soon.
Maybe zarcon, who collected his car today can give us a more objective review
Fyi, we were also told the reason why the torque converter was not included in the powerkit was bcos cars made after march 2010 already had the uprated torque converter as standard.
Finally, I wish to thank quill for a wonderfully informative session, the sales advisor, jerry and of course, docray for getting us a headstart.
