Re: what are the mods available to save fuel for F10 523;

TS there are lots of threads about saving fuel ... but with more or less same answer.
Do a search and you will get tonnes of them

~ Avoid driving upslope should help. And those MSCP, or mad drive-round-and-round parking, like Plaza Sing.

~ Switch off engine at traffic lights? Heavy tint not for the cooling, but so that others cannot see you perspiring inside.

~ Ask all passengers to take alternative transport. Tell them doors all not working, and you need to ask BMW-SG forum how to open.

~ Avoid traffic jams. Drive home from work close to midnight. Smooth traffic, can watch porn in car also. Win-win.

~ Convert gearbox to manual. Tell people you love heel-toe and that you are a real driving enthusiast, a mod king.

Theres a new one asking where to install reverse camera...
 
Re: what are the mods available to save fuel for F10 523;

Look at the old posts from 7-8 years back ..... People were enjoying the use of power tools to service their brake calipers or profess about what settings they used when they adjust their suspension settings (and how) and we enjoyed people sharing that knowledge. Now to set 2 clicks on the suspension it needs to go to the WS.

Where did the techno guys went ?

:hmmidont: Please dun make fun off me .... I saw some ads say that tune the ECU can get better HP (up to 25HP more), response and save petrol....

I am thinking if it is really so good... so asking around.

Petrol + Air = Power.

+25hp means more petrol. FC goes into toilet bowl.

How to increase 25hp from ECU tune in a NA car?

Hint: In future, ask specific question to get quality answer. Look at Pengful question.

1. Toyota Vios
2. Honda City
By selling your F10, you can get few of those car with different colour. Not only this forum got people ask for fc save meantime can gain power, vios forum also people complaint fc no good...... Mod to CNG, then no more FC, it will be CC.

I hope you are not sold on cyclone or "what's that thing they put inside the petrol tank" thing. You cannot have more power and saves fuel at the same time la. Really common sense.

Furthermore, you drive an F10, a car I would like to have but no lui. You can affor the slightly higher fuel consumption. Don't stinge mah...

Ok let me rephrase it;
I saw an ads saying that by tuning ECU, we can get up to 25 HP more, better response and fuel saving? Is this true as I have no ideas about MODS. Thanks
 
Re: what are the mods available to save fuel for F10 523;

I remember got a few type,
1. E Power - Yin Yang Qi Gong filter and magnet ... i hope i dont see ghost at night after fix it
2. Ninja Power Capsule Filter - Did BMW understand Ninja?
3. EPS power charger - more than thousands of buyer car feel lighter and more responsive, i think i will fix 10pcs to K.O. Enzo + Highest CCA ..... just for crankstart use

Let me try to explain in summary below;

1) "I saw an ads saying that by tuning ECU, we can get up to 25 HP more" = Focus on the text in bold red, it also did not state meant for N.A. or Force Induction Engines.

- Although it is possible to tune a N.A. engine to gain up to 25hp, it is very dependent and up to engine capacity. The ad is not wrong nor right because tuning a huge CC/Litre N.A., 25hp gain is possible but dont expect that from a smaller CC/Litre engine.

- Force Induction Engine, getting 25hp gain by tuning the ECU is pretty much easy and real.

2) "I saw an ads saying that by tuning ECU, we can get up to 25 HP more, better response and fuel saving?" = The ad is not wrong nor right.

- Why wrong? As davidtch posted, +25hp means more fuel for combustion which common sense tells us that more fuel is burnt and thus FC goes into the toilet.

- Why not wrong?
a) If we look from another perspective of tuning. It can be tuned to have lean fuel supply before the power/torque 'kicks'. Once it kicks in, fuel supply will have to be rich. So the former will save fuel but the latter will burn more fuel. However given BMW's smart ECU, I believe it is already factory tuned to run lean under 'normal drive' and run rich under 'spirited driving'.

b) 2nd perspective, Fuel Burnt to achieve ##hp more, it is actually fuel saving e.g. X amount of extra fuel burnt to get that extra X amount HP.... but this is a false perspective.

3) Ultimately, the ad statement is both true and false. Hope I do not confuse you.

Walao you still don't get it.

If it's possible to achieve more power by using less fuel, what is generating that power? You don't have to know anything about cars (I'm not saying you do) to understand that logic.

Baby, I wasn't confused but now am. Thanks. Stock is best. Wise words...
 
Re: what are the mods available to save fuel for F10 523;

Actually, there is another engineering solution.

That's to add electric drive train. With this solution, 50hp is smelly smelly can achieve.

Don't ask me where to get this mod. I haven't seen it on the mkt yet.
