Anyone one of you here fit broquet in your picanto?
Does it really improves performance and FC?

stock is the best FC. if you wana have better FC
use low resistance tyres(155/165 width tyres), 5w20 full syn engine oil, Cold air intake.
Think tis is the best answer for ur FC. other mods, i dun think is needed.

if use 5w20 then every 5000km must change eo correct. not very good for engine if use till 10000km. Am i right?

just heard from this tuner.. he was tuning a lancer or a rush.. can't remember.. but he said the capsule and broquet thingy inhibited fuel flow.. causing the engine to burn lean.. so yes you save fuel, but you lose out on so much power because the AFR is messed up.. to i guess it doesn't do you good either??

Agree but this may apply to those using in -line. For in tank no effect on the AFR.

Unless it can grow petrol, dun think the effect is quantifiable. Think its more of psychological...
