    Velossa Tech BIG MOUTH Ram Air Inlets

    Interesting the way your render shows it clipping right through the radiator shroud, indicating the modifying the radiator shroud to keep it there is possible. If your render clips through the radiator shroud, you could in theory create a template for people to use should they choose to modify...

    Kia Stinger may not get a second generation

    No, I ended up speaking with Kia corporate's Customer Assistance Center. They just have no idea how exactly to go about the more demanding nature of higher end car owners. Granted, the Stinger is at the bottom end of the cost spectrum, but Kia is just too used to economy car expectations and...

    Kia Stinger may not get a second generation

    The article does link to another article in which someone references speaking to Gregory Guilliame: "Speaking to Australian media at the Paris motor show, Kia?s head of design Gregory Guilliame acknowledged the Stinger?s achievements as a brand ambassador, but cautiously admitted a second...

    Engine bay trim panel clip part number

    I just checked out from the link I posted above: Qty of 20 x $0.21 = $4.20 (not on purpose) + $9.26 shipping = $13.85 total. I'm not sure where you actually live, but you might want to try it from where I linked it at [tongue] Thanks for identifying these, though! I really have to figure out...

    Engine bay trim panel clip part number

    Hmmm, they're much cheaper than $1 each here: https://www.hyundaipartsdeal.com/genuine/hyundai-clip~14206-08250-b.html However, I'm noticing some continued item number changes. Are you able to discern if there is a material difference? The fact that one of mine is deteriorating from something...

    Engine bay trim panel clip part number

    oddball Did you end up finding the right clip? One of mine is literally deteriorating (it's crumbling to pieces!) and I don't want to have to take it to the dealership just to get the right clip to replace it.

    Warranty and lowering springs

    It all depends on the dealership, to be honest. If they're a bunch of ego-driven dickbags, they'll find any way they can to blame you for the damage to protect the manufacturer. If they get along with you, they'll turn a blind eye here and there if your mod clearly doesn't cause the problem...

    Cali Legal Intake

    At first I anticipated this would be a joke thread... I mean... Cali legal mods?... [histerical][histerical][histerical]

    Lap3 Pro Tuner reviews.

    I just want to see some 1/4 mile times, lol... We need some quantifiable, real world results on this thing![raceflag]

    Updated info on Kia Stinger LAP3 Protuner

    They actually posted it up for pre-order. The initial 50 units are $925. Funnily enough, they announced it on Instagram to drive more follows since it didn't really get posted anywhere else, lol

    K&N Typhoon Intake Review - Completed

    Well, great... I decided to open the hood in the morning and get a closer bead on that siren sound, and it's coming from the driver's side turbo. I decided to look this up and found that turbos that are failing will make a "police siren" sound. Well FUUUUU---- let's see what the dealership is...

    ... You installed it for the noise. [hah]

    K&N Typhoon Intake Review - Completed

    Ehhh, so I decided to trim my BOV hoses to shorten them and straighten out the bends a bit more (~1" on both hoses), but now I have a pronounced police-siren pitch wind-up sound that I think was caused by the unfortunate comedy of errors with just the right (wrong?) length of driver's side BOV...

    K&N Typhoon larger filters

    I've been pondering this for awhile, but haven't gotten around to it. You'll only really max out the filters that came with it with fairly aggressive mods. Until you're pushing 500+HP, I wouldn't worry about larger filters. Of course, once you ARE pushing more power, the increased surface...

    Transmission Upper Power Limit

    And I bet you babied it and never exceeded the speed limit, right? Drove in Eco mode only [tongue] Eventually, someone will come forth about their friend's cousin's distant relative's Stinger GT that was running NOS on the dyno and blew the transmission apart at 700WHP [paranoid]

    Transmission Upper Power Limit

    That's the point: trying to keep it anonymous, lol... Someone has to have pushed the limits hard enough, but I'm hoping they're around to cast their vote until we start seeing where all the votes show up. Don't want people exposing themselves damaging their transmissions with 600HP [deviltail]

    Asking for a friend.

    Updated info on Kia Stinger LAP3 Protuner

    That's what I'm wondering: if they'll do a group buy or an initial run pricing scheme to get these out in the wild to spread word of the product.

    Updated info on Kia Stinger LAP3 Protuner

    Oh geez, the LAP3 USA website says $1200 for this thing... My gawd that's steep considering an actual tune would cost less. Hell, I miss the days of HPTuners, now [unbelieveable]

    Updated info on Kia Stinger LAP3 Protuner

    Yea, being able to control stuff from the center console screen via Android Auto would have been car nerd cargasms all day... I hate having to look at my phone or a laptop or something to get readouts, etc [biggrin]
