I use the clutch more to make sure I don't roll back on an incline. But on really steep ones like in the side streets of Baguio, I have no choice but to use the handbrake as the throttle lag will make you roll down very quickly before you get any power down.

I just went to their accessories counter. There are 2 counters there - one for genuine Toyota accesories and another for 3rd party accessories. My front and rear sensors are genuine Toyota accessories so they also come with 1 year warranty which I was able to maximize since my front sensors were acting up a few months ago.

Update ko lang, Got to see Toyota BGC paintwork ok sya. Kuhang kuha

As for IHE, sa iba ako nagpagawa bro eh, have a look at driftxaust. Unichip wala pa ko nyan bro.
IHE sulit siya, wag lang ricey setup lol. Para lang magkaspice ang driving.

How about OVT? It seems the Mazda subsection likes them for Mazda 3 tuning and in the US they also work on Toyota engines

Do you mean when you are stopped in an incline, lets say the back roads near Valle Verde/ St. Paul/ Ultra, you don't use the hand brake? You just find the right clutch/gas mix so the car doesnt move?

Yes. I live in that area so I face that incline on a daily basis. I don't use the handbrake for mild inclines like that.

For very steep inclines (all you can see is the sky), that's when I have no choice but to use the handbrake as the throttle lag really ruins my timing.

Won't that burn out your clutch earlier? ...

Only if you ride the clutch for long.

For example, if you're stopped on an incline, instead of holding your car by riding the clutch (which leads to premature wear), you should use your handbrake.

But if you're gonna get moving, then you just release the clutch exactly at the bite point and pair it with an appropriate amount of throttle to get moving. No need to ride the clutch and overrev, no need to use the handbrake as you won't roll back if you get the timing right.

It took me a month to master this in the inclines near st. Paul pasig going to capitol commons and the traffic in home depot going to pasig cbd. If i change shoes i tend to over rev pa minsan [emoji23]

OVT bro, orange virus? I think more on Skyactiv engines sila and lexus, di ata sila nag ttune para sa 1ZR corolla engine. Balitaan kita ano magiging resulta ng tune sakin, pero so far sa ganitong setup (K&N, 421 header, exhaust) parang solve na e.
