2000 Proton Wira GLi 1.3 fuel injection from Malaysia
Summary:
Satisfied with a car that cost only 47000+
Faults:
Underpowered.
General Comments:
I saw some drivers claimed that some modifications to the air filter, cable plug and exhaust system gives better performance to the Wira 1.3GLi. Is it true, and worth doing so, such that there are no side effects to the car, since it's a fuel injection type? I really need some comments
from those who have done those minor modifications.
Basically, I'm owning a Wira 1.3Gli year 2000, and it's quite a good car. Underpowered defect only becomes an issue after it's 5 years old.
Hope to hear from you guys and thanks...
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

My 1.3 Wira A/B bought in 2001 but manufactured in 2000 is now 5 years..I've installed grounding wire sets (RM100), air intake Compressor (RM100) can be found in Brother's outlet, a 4-2-1 manifold without further modifications to the exhaust system (changed due to original exhaust manifold cracked) and regular service and changed of NGK "Y" type spark plugs still produce reasonable power...I'm plannning to changed the spark plug cable to a better type, but do not know whether it does have any effects.. but one thing for sure changed the gear box system to a 1.6 model and request the mechanic to grind the flywheel a bit thinner for reduce the stress and better responsed... The mechanic told me all this can be done with RM500-RM600+
