The work was done on February last year and yes, I can feel the difference immediately after having it installed...
Stock manifold with cat converter.
At this moment, it is impossible to get Elantra/Avante X20 extractor in the market but the shop manage to find an alternative to it. They tried Matrix 1.8 extractor and walla.. it fit nicely to the mounting. However, minor adjustment need to be done to the end flange connected to the exhaust mid section as the flange orientation is slightly different.. no big deal.
Hyundai Matrix 1.8 4-1 extractor.
New hole created for the O2 sensor as the ready made connection is being plugged and you can also see the bottom part has been cut in order to adjust the end flange orientation.
Next is the muffler.The installation is quite fast, cut, remove and install.
After everything is completed, I have the ECU reset before I start the engine.
Haaa....saving daily 50sen for this upgrade!
ReplyDeleteWah it will took you 500 days (1 1/2 years) to install the extractor.. up sikit RM1 le, reduce to 250days only, hihi
ReplyDeleteFrom did you get the header, and why did you install the 02 sensor down and didn't leave it up
ReplyDeleteKarim.. sorry for my late reply, been bz lately.
ReplyDeleteI get my header in Subang Perdana and the installer done it all including relocate the O2 sensor. The header is meant for Matrix 1.8 and thats why there is pre-fab port on top.
