Perodua Myvi Eco Challenge

Last Saturday, we USM engine lab team took up the challenge designed by Peodua Eco Challenge. We opt to do engine mods to enhance the fuel efficiency of current K3Ve engine used by Our MYVI. There were 12 instituitions been selected and all of us gather at speedway plus circuit for the race day.

USM was one and only one the black elegant myvi. So it is stand out as the champion. Nah...It actually the effort we have put in.







Its not the decorative sticker we put on as picture shown. THE real effort is what we have done inside the engine. Since we do not get the best weight reduction. We are actually 60 kg more that other teams...But we made our way by our unique engine mods and driving skills.


I pay some tributes to our driver...Mr Kong.

We modify our engine to overexpanded cycle in order to extract more work done after firing. I shall not explain the theory behind it in here. Also we deactivated 2 cylinders so basically our car runs on 13oo/2 cc = 650 cc. hehe...lots of work to be done and its not easy as thought. so we manage to beat other contestant even better mileage than some manual tranmission vehicle. awesome right!




Henry is the critical guy behind our team. He is our team leader and major force in this success. Good Job. I learnt a lot from him.

All of us shared the joy of being CHAMPION.

We ve been a great learning journey. I learn engines from 0 to now a sufficient level of knowledge. Work hard dude!
