My Fto engine changed sound

Post by jumpkid »

Hello, i wonder what happend to my car, after I accelerated just to overtake a slow moving car, i felt a big difference in the sound of the engine and exhaust, it kinda creeps me out at first but i noticed that my car is running better after that.. what the hell happend? :?:

MIVEC Just Kicked In Yo!

MIVEC kicks in at around 5500 RPM.

Let me guess, you have a GPX?

It's always good to give it a hit every now and then as it cleans all the sh*t out of the engine.

Mivec mode will suck up more fuel.

It is good to purge the valves ocassionally, when you rev the engine hard.
Keeps the internals cleaner.

Of course, if you do it too often, u hurt your wallet and wear out the car faster.
