long time kia owner and expert in all things kia

[kiacruzer]

I have driven and modified kias for over 16 years. I have sold kias for over 14 years and up until yesterday had the highest horsepower kia Optima in the USA at 430whp which was beat by a freind who i help build his own beast. new record stands at 445whp.

I know all things kia and also am in constant contact with LAP3/PROSS so know everything about them as well.

Welcome, what's your plan for the Stinger?

Welcome [MENTION=482]kiacruzer[/MENTION], what kind of tuning did you have on the Optima?

 

[kiacruzer]

optima has a big list of upgrades but the biggest two items was the gtx3076r turbo and the amazing tuning from PROSS/LAP3. if you go to my instagram there are some pictures there of that build as well.

Goal is to have stinger over 500whp

Welcome [MENTION=482]kiacruzer[/MENTION]! I've been selling Kia's for almost 17 years myself and consider myself a Kia "know-it-all" as well. LOL

I'm planning on a GT AWD with the 19" summers in Micro.

I don't think it's going to take much to push it over 500, really. Just pushing the turbos to 25-28 psi will get her over 450 I believe.

Are you running the meth as insurance as you push the boost up or do you think that it's really making a difference even now?

 

[kiacruzer]

Correct the meth is an insurance to deter knock

 

[bikerdude]

hey kia cruzer, tell me some more about the meth, where is it injected and cost
