This one is fitted in the engine bay of proton Exora Prestige concept which is most probably the first proton model using the campro turbo engine on production line to be delivered in oct 2010. The theme of turbocharge engine is blue colour while red for campro CPS.
Talking about campro CPS v campro turbo, which one is better for you? Anyway, both have pros and cons. The CPS may be fuel efficient and the campro turbo surely got better power and pickup but the consumption must also be high.
