Having problems with message search?
Arjun,
First of all thanks for the advice.
This is the first time I'm doing the Leh drive. But I've heard people doing it in Matiz of all cars, so should be able to do it in Getz as well. But there is always an unknown quantity which should make the trip exciting.
Well for the torque 2 suggestions or write up I've read are
Get vehicle tuned for more torque than for max speed
Air-fuel mixture should be made lean by 1/4th turn of the screw to adjust to thin air.
Let me know if you have any thing else in your mind.

Are you sure you'll be able to navigate through to Leh in a Getz? Have you done this before? I was thinking of doing Leh this summer as well, but looking up sites, I learnt you really need a 4WD with a lot of torque and high ground clearance to do the trip.
The Getz suddenly experiences drops in power on high altitudes when the air thins down, and Leh is known for thin-air. I am not discouraging, but just adding a word of caution. Let me know, I am in two minds - either wait until I have extra cash to afford an extra Gypsy King, or if my new Santro (ERLX) which vommits out torque in city drives would be enough.
