As above. Recently sat in my friends Pre F/L Pica. 1st 2 gears seems more responsive and powerful, less draggy than F/L Pica. Is it just me or?? Can someone explain??

Is it expensive to do that QF mod thing? Roughly how much?

i believe could be due to different gear ratios

i read up some where that f/l pica's lighter than pre f/l. the acceleration should be lighter for f/l pica in this case. what's the mileage diff between the 2 picas? our pica can only fly with a/c off, when the a/c compressor load cuts in, its like a walking duck...

Me using 98 liaoz..
But still feel that 1st 2 gear damn draggy and unresponsive.. Pre F/L one doesnt seems to have this problem.
Gear ratio, hmm think this could be the issue..

our picanto recommended fuel is 91, so if we pump 92 it's more than enough. and there's no diff in pumping 98 or premium. it's scientific proven, just google it.
and no need 2 mins la, 30 secs our picanto can reached 100km/hr easily.

Maybe it is time to change a new spark plug.. That will improve the pick up and FC too.

with aircon on 140kmh max. if downslope 160kmh max.
FL pica is better on climbing hill than the previous. but eat more petrol ah. i think for response thingy shd b on the gears.
optimum ratio for the engine with the weight of car.
