yes legal age is 16 .. now legal matters are solved , can i get some help with my queries ?

i read some similiar queries on team BHP and they say thta spark plugs and air filter dont give much boost to performance .. is that true?? if so than then how much more power is expected than dio's stock 7bhp?

Hey buddy,

I lived in hubli for about 5yrs. Upto my knowledge there isn't any good place for such modification. Sure, one or the other mechanic will accept to do the job but I am not sure of thier capability. I suggest you get the job done in bangalore or goa.

If not possible, you can atleast get the stickering job done neatly as I remember seeing enough shops. Arun is in hubli(unkal). Pls ask him for further details.

Buddy Dont modify and ruin the scooty instead if you get a body kit for it then install it or go for a paint job not body modifications!

i dont think so that the there are any such kind of rule.

@TS:- the modifications would just ruin the bike (scooter). Better get a new body kit from the showroom.

**AMG 13** · 07-04-2010, 08:27 AM

thanks for the help

dont worry about the paint job . I 've got a contact with the paint booth person and have put out feelers in the HONDA showooms , so i may get some news in about a week .

for people who dont agree for modifcations you can read my first post relating to how i want my ride to stand out in the endless ocean of dio's ..for example - our college parking lot has many many dio's of every colour and year .. how am i supposed to find out which one's mine????

.. any way's its just for 2 years .

my only query is about the performance mods .. will there be noticeable difference ? or just a stock replacement ? aND how about the prices of
1. NGK spark plugs
2. K&N air filter (one more thing -- is it the conical thingie or the stock replacemnt filter?)

thank you

**haxor** · 07-04-2010, 11:00 AM

NGK spark plugs and K&N filter wont give you a huge boost!You have to upjet the scooty,Dont do that it will hurt the resale value of the scooty!

Wanna Stand out in crowd?Get a Nano instead of a scooty!

**AMG 13** · 07-04-2010, 04:37 PM

hello??? i'm 15 ... remember ? yah i know about the upjetting process .. how will it hurt the resale value ?

**haxor** · 07-04-2010, 08:59 PM

Didnt understand?

which one will you buy between these two!

or

this?

**AMG 13** · 07-05-2010, 08:45 AM

hey but i dont think i'll sell it ..or maybe i should ?? but i'm not crapping up the dio dude.. just some parts to improve performance as much as possible and a cool paintjob.. if the buyer is a first timer he'll eat it up and i get extra on it !(hehehe

) just kidding ..

and whats the mileage gain if those parts are there and also what are the gains if i try out that acetone and xylene mixture with the petrol????

Buddy. I assure you that your mileage will go down ridiculously and I mean it. And as haxor says your dio's resale value will go down badly. Pls understand that Dio was built purely for commuters. So am not sure if it can keep performing the same way after modifications in long terms. Problems may creep in later. Filters will increase power but to a very small extent. I know its hard to swallow to give up your modification idea. But think wether you can meet the running cost. Decide wisely........
