Baleno - RDD Street Setup

[rags]

My d**k is bigger than yours.

My Honda City is giving me 45 kmpl. (35 of them is pushed in neutral though)

Ajit, Mohit didn't. Ron did.

Can't edit the post, so apologies for mis-spelling your name again, Ajith.

vivek / rags get a room guys.
This post is for me and Mohit.
Please start another thread to brag about your mileage / top speed and dick size.

Got a mileage of 15.5kmpl today, driven by Anish on Bangalore - Kerala route (with some city driving done yesterday). This is with full luggage, boot and rear seats are full with luggage and full time AC and normal driving (around 100kmph).

Good we could remap it to squeeze a little more out of it. But I don't want to stress the engine.
For a fully blown NA 1.6 setup. With custom head work, cams etc. this is pretty good.
This is with the Non Power Mode switch right ?

Remind me to copy out your map for Anish's car lol
Most of the modded Balenos Ive seen are lucky to get even half this number. And they done make anywhere near the power your engine is putting out.
Anish should know his setup may not return the same mileage because he is going with a much wilder cam. But we will try to match it.

This is why I love tuning.
You up the power and mileage. This is the Zen of tuning.
I dont think prior to RDD anybody could make this claim i.e. Huge jump in power while giving you better mileage than stock.
What mileage where you getting with the bone stock setup ?

No I dont want to touch this setup. Its too sweet to as it is. This is amazing mileage for a Stage 2 setup, as this was not even a build criteria. This was not really a mileage run, but as I told you new brake pads have been put in so I told him to take it easy thats all.

Yeah Anish is cool with that. As long as his car is more powerful.

Bone stock I used to get 12.5kmpl. I have never got this good mileage in my car. Period.

If I can find a customer for my turbo esteem I plan to sell it and buy a baleno and give it the same treatment I gave yours.
Only problem is I know there is no guarantee it will come as sweet as yours.

You have a masterpiece. And trying to replicate a masterpiece is never easy.
Its not possible to replicate my mood, what I was thinking, when I do a particular job.

Spent 4 hours on Anishs head today. And didn't even finish one port lol.
The stones he got give a very nice shark skin finish.

Guess your karma was good.

Car @ 51000 kms. I dont have plans to mod this car any further. So I believe updates should cease from now on. I really dont have anything more to prove on reliability.

Thanks once again Ron, I thoroughly enjoyed this journey.

Im still looking for a Baleno man. Only because what we did with your car. Represents the Ultimate car for Indian roads. As far as I'm concerned.
Low end grunt that will spin up the wheels
Top speed that would shame cars that cost much more.
And mileage that even the wife wont complain about.

[crazydiablo]

Completely agree. Pretty much like an RDD RD on four wheels.
