Maybe shadow is from rival garage... nevermind him as we know what MG is capable of.

I would like to ask if the LTA has the equipment to check whether our ECU is remapped??? U know especially during the 3rd year car inspection.

muscleman, I'm not in any way flaming you, but when have you ever seen the vehicle inspector at VICOM or AA connect any diagnostic cables to your car during inspection? I don't think they even know where your ECU is located, so put your fears to rest. If anyone is really scared of getting caught, then better just take public transport. Singapore is really a FINE city... and we all know it.

All these achievable by tuning ecu.
The fan kicks in at 100 degree C for the euro stock units, ie mine.

The fan control is good. I have a fan controller to turn it full blast before I go onto the track.

I love to remap my unit!

I have been to MG, and the people over there have done their homework. There may be other workshops i can go to, but i still choose MG. Most impt is that you are comfortable with the people who handles your ride. I feel safe letting them handle my ride. jus my tots.

Paiseh, Sqflyer. I don't know how the checks are being conducted at Vicom or AA because i always change cars before the check. Please pardon me for my ignorance. Thanks for the info.

One thing for sure, I'm going to stick with my eight for a long time because I love it.

Roger that. After re-map, going to find out what's the actual top speed. Managed only 185kmh before the speed limiter cuts in.

Does Knightsports ECU Remap increase the redline for 4AT like RE Amemiya ECU Reflash?

Pardon my nobishness but does Smoothen pitch graph mean the rev climb faster?

what about the ecu for Mazdaspeed Limited Edition Version 1, which Mazda has tuned up the engine using it's exclusively designed PCM (Powertrain Control Module) to match the modified intake and exhaust systems of the Mazdaspeed Version....

Mazdaspeed being mazda in-house tuner, is still very conservative in their tuning policy. Which is why altho the PCM for mazdaspeed limited edition is tuned up, it shld only be slightly better than stock.

KNIGHT SPORTS' arrival is confirmed.

The day that they start doing the remaps will start from 24th, and end 28th. Those who have registered their names, and gave me their numbers, we will call you to come down.

Those who have yet to register but intends to do the remaps, pls do let me know early. 6MT cars from Mazda Motors, pls keep ur fingers crossed that tis time round they MAY be able to tune your ecu. Maybe only. We will try with 1 or 2 first.

Of cos, you can come without registering but of cos, priority given to those who have registered and only if there is sufficient time.

Overseas parties are welcomed.
