ECU remapped

Got my ECU remapped with the RRP rom tune by Project S.

Lag time greatly reduce and instant respond on throttle.
- The feeling is like converting the e-throttle body to the cable type.
RPM climbs much faster.
- Feels like having a lighten flywheel
Remove Speed cut and Rev cut
- Tested and proven Rev cut removed. No chance to test for Speed cut yet...geez

Overall, I am very satisfied with the result.
But how long can this suppress the hunger within me?
It is still a big question mark...

Muffler inspection

It is a compulsory process to have the muffler inspected and approved if you're to own an after market muffler in Singapore.
So here I am, on a hot Saturday afternoon in the Vicom Inspection Center at Yishun.
Total time taken: 1.5hrs (including waiting time)
Total $ spent: $78.11

Car camwhore unprofessionally

Was helping my friend on pasting some stickers for his ride (add horsepower again, LOL) at the frequent hangout multi storey car park. Seems like the boys in blues tends to visit this area very often nowadays because we encounter them again within 15minutes!!
And we......STARTED TO CAM-WHORE with my iPhone 4...HAHA
Did another round of unprofessional self photoshoot on this "no more Limited Ed" swift sport and my friend's many many 10 BHPs swift sport as well.
Pardon for the quality of the pics from my iPhone.
No reading today...Pure photos now =)

Random updates

Just some random updates.

The Sunline 60RRS seems to be hitting against the diffuser. The stock mounting for the muffler is too soft to hold the muffler tight. Went Project S to change the stock mounting. The Greddy muffler mounting is not cheap hence just got 1 changed and the other rubber mounting is stregthen with cable ties.

It's been awhile since I used the Selenia Star 5W40 engine oil. Here's the average FC. No changes on my driving style and it really improves the FC from 12.5 to the current 14.4. By the way, I am using Shell V-Power.

New muffler

Got my current Sunline Racing 60SS muffler replaced by a brand new Sunline Racing 60RRS over the weekend.

What's the different?

The 60SS is a twin muffler and the 60RRS is a single outlet muffler.

Well, I can say that 60SS produces the loudest sound for a legal twin exhaust but it's still not as loud as the single muffler.

This 60RRS produces a low bassy and loud sound which is very pleasant to the ear :) and it's legal which is the most important factor in Singapore.

For looks wise, I still think that the twin muffler suits Swift Sport more as the original rear diffuser is meant for 2 exhaust outlets.

Performance wise, I personally find that the 60RRS tends to produce a higher torque compare to the twin muffler.

I will post a video on how the muffler sounds when I have the chance to make a recording.
