BUSA,
What grade did you go for? and what was the cost of the oil?

************ I shifted to fully synthetic motor oil from Mobil1, and boy it makes a difference, for more info check the long term reports in sometime.*************

Ok installed Green, here is a short review. The Turbolag has reduced and the car pulls fantastically from mid to high revvs. The flat spot is gone which was there before at high revvs and 5th gear floor the throttle the car pulls like a rail. A must have filter for the Swift. There is no noise from the filter at all and very little growl at high revvs, so you can have your cake and eat it too.

Thank you Peter for another wonderful product

Lucky BUSA . Peter informed me that currently Greens are not available for Verna and so he recommended K&N . Therefore, friends who donot find specific Green for their cars may go in for K&N! just for info of others and not envying BUSA

hey shatraghu - I myself have a KnN filter in the other car, but the green is better overall as far as noise, design and filtering efficiency is concerned.

BUSA, just checking, I thought we were supposed to use regular diesel and not the premium ones see this http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/techni...ar-diesel.html
the consensus seems to be that regular is best. anything that made u decide to go against the current?
also how much did the green cotton cost you?

ripergeo - Yes i used Xtra Premium fuel and it started to smoke way lot more, so i got back to normal.

I would not recommend premium fuel for diesels.

Green costs - 6350 + VAT

Yeah Turbo, the car is running very good, the green filter has given it the missing beat at higher revvs, turbolag is almost vanished.

BUSA sorry to be a pest, but does'nt the missing beat mean wasted fuel? I'm new to modding and your car is what i hope to build mine into, so please...tolerate me

I spoke to HotTracks in Bangalore on Friday

The Green OE costs Rs. 1750 and the Wind costs Rs. 3800.

So the price (Rs. 6350) quoted is for Wind Twister ?.

Regards
Ravi
