[QUOTE="mizhan, post: 457079, member: 7942"] when i was at proton almost 10 years ago, we fitted a few satria gti's with this engine. it was fun when you made it scream, but not much bottom end. the deciding factor for not pursuing this engine was cost. at that time it cost RM28k a pop - that is equivalent to a waja's total manufacturing cost. it's exhaust manifold alone was almost RM6k. we figured even if we somehow miraculously managed to sell cars to meet the minimum quantity order, EW01 would cost us about RM19k per unit. in comparision, the mitsu 4G93 fitted to satria gti's was RM6k; and the base campro cost only RM4k to make.
