Hope your 10k kms come soon

But still, why wait? What difference does it make?

I dont seem to understand the connection between an Airfilter upgrade and Engine Oil.
But chalo, no worries. Hope your 10k kms come soon. Then you may REALLY enjoy it.

Busa after Petefying your gaadi have you ever felt the need for tyres wider than your current upsize ?

No, the 195/60/15 are a perfect upsize for the Swift, people putting 205's on stock Swifts are just doing a overkill.

Also the Michelins are just fantastic. I will be putting 205/50/15 Dunlop SP9000 for a week for the purpose of testing them.

True the 1.3 Petrol on 205/50 is sluggish (My experience with a Vxi + airfilter)

Keen to know your experience with the upsize trials.

You can opt for 205 when you go turbo on a Swift, else 195 just do fine.

Will let you know abut the upsize trials.

You say pulling ahead with ease, could you please explain a bit further? So that we can understand better?

Like say, after 400 metres, my Peted Swift was 10 car lengths ahead of the stock or some such?

Well i can say that pulling ahead means leaving the other car behind, fifth feels like third gear, it really goes very fast. In the 5th gear drag my car just out accelerated the stock one and moved ahead, at the end of 300meters my car was 5-6 car lenths ahead and by the end of the complete straight, the stock car was not visible in the ORVMs.

@ Busa,
Dont mean to hijack your thread but didnt want to start a new thread for the same.Hope you dont mind.

Got my Green Cotton fitted few days back !

Here are a few pics,


After the fitment, the car has slightly transformed

Extremely happy with the overall outcome, money well spent.

Many thanks to Turboindia / Peter !

Hey Amey, Congrats on going green, I am soon going to go green myself on the Swift. Do give us a report, on this thread or start a new one. So what do you plan to get Petes Digital Tuning Box?
