Hi Heng
Your Twin Surbo really works great on my Kia Cerato 1.6L. Good low-end torque, responsiveness and mid-range power. Seems like transforming my 1.6L to 1.8L or even 2.0L. Now I can travel easily side-by-side with those large displacement (>2.0L) cars when moving off from traffic lights without stepping too much on the gas pedal (which is $$$ considering recent fuel prices).
The Cerato is a very solid, heavy car (>1.25 tonnes) and with my new heavy 17" wheels, low-end (<3000 rpm) torque is even more critical for my car. Actually, earlier I regretted fitting the massive 17" wheels with low profile wide tyres...but now I think my choice was right...Surbo provides the POWER and the 17" tyres provide the control. As we all know: "Power without Control is Nothing".
When I'm in the mood for some fast driving, I love the press-release-press cycles to build up air pressure in the Surbo before going for the "rocket launch". I'm having lots of fun with Surbo!

More torque and BHP (dyno test)
Quick revving (1/2 throttle to RPM limit)
