Engine hesitation/flat spot (Liberty 2.0R)

[PinkK]

ha ha I understand a few under the weather myself I mean I have asked for a quote and they are VERY reasonable check out Bryce's (KiDo)'s treads I believe they are heading to brissy soon

[Kormoran]

I shot through a message so we'll see how we go, it is tax time after all

PS;

hehe welcome to the lib addiction

Sending through an email as I type this, see what the damage will be.
I'm tempted to get an exhaust/extractors though (If its worth putting extractors on a 2.0R) will it need a re-tune if i do?

Ill just note too, I still haven't had a problem since changing to BP Ultimate.

Catback exhaust or extractors will give some decent gains in power

Smoother power, improved fuel economy(often the fuel economy savings will pay for the tune within 3 months!)

Xforce 2.25" catback, are they quality?

It looks pretty sweet!

I have an XForce 2.25 system on my car, check out my profile to find out more I also need to update it, haven't done so in a while..

[Kormoran]

Oh sweet what's the damage on one? (I sent them an email anyway)

I literally just checked my bank and the tax office was quite generous this year so some of that is exhaust & tune!
And how do they sound of course?

Yeah it set me back a bit, mainly because it is entirely out of stainless steel, but if you read my thread, I ran into a few issues with the cats and resonators. So those are still factory, but from that back is stainless steel goodness! How does it sound you ask, on idle you can hardly hear it, just a small purr. But once the revs rise, I have had some people give me a double take because they don't expect a growl out of a Liberty that is not a GT! It's brilliant!

After all that... didn't say the price... it cost me $1050 fitted..

Not too bad I guess. We'll see what happens, i admit looking at it on your car I want it even more though so i may fork out the $$$$

Was looking and found this;

He's saying it's for 2.0i... but don't they have a single exhaust?


Edit;

Found this too, is this decent?

Ooohhh I really like the first link!! The angle cut exhaust tips look soooo sleek! $450 is not too bad! In regards to the 2.0i, in the 04-06 models they were single exhaust, but in the 07-08 they were dual.

The second link you posted is the same one as mine.

[Kormoran]

Oh I thought they stopped producing the 2.0i in 05/06 when they went to the 2.0R?

Going to do some shopping around on Monday, will let you know how things go!

[Kormoran]

Low and behold, the problem returned today. No power at 2500rpms and even taking off in first was jumpy unless i did it above 3000rpm . Reset the ecu, so far so good
1 month seems so long to wait for my tune.. but going to be well worth it!

[PinkK]

Just had a quick look at your posts, if your at brissy then I am pretty sure that Matt from KiDo is heading up your way in August, then you don't have to worry so much about the wait
Check out KiDo in the for sale section and the I think its the tread labeled Sydney and Melbourne dates, go to near the end (i would post the link but I'm on my phone)
