Err...wuts ur plate number again? :eek:

3. Responsive - U should try 6 potter dude! then u can feel the responsive :) :top:

The responsive part in BMW is a common trait because throttle response been moderated for a more civilized power delivery to ensure passenger comfort. Many find adding a SprintBooster would help in this area which in actual fact is just tricking the throttle response. If your have driven the ECOPRO mode in the F30 before, you know exactly what I mean by tricking the throttle response. In ECOPRO mode, throttle response is retarted to the max.

Ask me to use ECOPRO mode in F30, I would kill myself by vomiting blood.. :puke:

Your UDMs cannot win my Unser la ... I can carry 7-9 passengers ok! :0)

My Avanza's 1.3L VVTi engine beat your Unser in fuel consumption and also can carry loads of stuff... haven't tried 9 passenger though... but have tried load her up with furniture until suspension max out and I can't see though my rear view and passenger side mirror because blocked by furniture.

By the way I'm on coil spring.. u, if I'm not mistaken on leaf spring.. u lose! haha!
 
I love the SprintBooster because in normal auto mode the throttle response is really slow as its designed for an easy drive. I hate to shift to DS because it will change gears at a higher RPM and that is not what I want for town driving. But the FD2 really comes alive at 6-7k rpm. The engine is so sweet at that range but it will not beat the smoothness of the inline 6 with its smooth whine. :0)

Eh shaddup you ... my Unser with leaf springs can carry gajah, unta and kerbaus la. Your Avanza will collapse ok. If you wallop a golf ball through my Unser's windscreen it will take 20 secs before it exits the car ok!!!
 
i have not driving a civic before but i have driven a year 2010 honda accord. all i can say the 320i throttle response is much better than my accord 2.0 and handling is much more than the accord and also the cabin noise is also much better. not to mention honda accord brakes is not responsive. when i brake the steering judder after 2 year went to sc the brake cannot be solved so i decided in the year 2012 i decided to sell my accord and go for 320i msport and i am very happy with i only clock 796 km in it after 3 week of getting delivery

It's totally different... i am very much enjoy driving my 325. Just feel more solid on the driving experience. :)
 
Been driving a 320i courtesy car while car is getting powerkitted. Man the acceleration on the 320i is really slow...

Can get it at a few places ... mine was from Eurotuner ... it DOES NOT in itself affect fuel consumption. It only changes the throttle curve making it more responsive. It does not make the car any faster too. It's about the throttle feel, which in turn changes the feel (feel only) of the engine response. That's about it.
