So although with no knocking at higher compression, under normal engine 10:1 you will lose about 8%-15% power. 3) The 1.3 engine, if derated with extra weight, and less power, will not be suitable for a direct NGV conversion. The taxi version uses the 1.6l engine. 4) With ave 16,000km per anum mileage, and RM3-4K per conversion, it will take SEVEN years to pay back your NGV investment. 5) Your car comes with Fly-By Wire throttle control and a variable intake IAFM system operated by vacuum. retrofitting a NGV mixer and the lower power per throttle travel will mess with your car engine feel and rubbish your auto transmission shift point. Think carefully before you invest. You have been warned. NGV kits for BLM:-

Or else wait for Proton NGV direct from factory but maybe not Proton Saga BLM. [...] [...] Many people started to switch to NGV but have to sacrifice the boot.
