Do higher octane fuels have better additive packages ?

Just came across your video. I’m from Australia and I own a Kia Cerato GT (Kia Forte?) 1.6T I’m in talks atm about upgrading the engine to a Hyundai i30N 2.0T. Might cost me roughly $20k AUD and then bolt ons after that. Hopefully get it to 300+kws at the wheel

About time theres a channel that knows their stuff

thanks man

Mine is stock 201 it’s a 2020 forte gt

Doesn't the DCT start slipping around 270 torque?

13’ vt here, do you know if it’s possible to slap on the 16’ rods onto the 13’ g4fj? Are parts interchangeable? Would like to get reliability to push into the 300-400s.

There a difference between a normal 1.6 engine, and the 1.6 Turbo engines built from the get go to be a turbo engine? Like stronger bearings, pistons and rods???

Where can I speak with you

Google brought me here from “How to Install a Catch Can on a Gen 1 Hyundai” and i dont see that here

Im actually getting one of these soon now and it will be my first turbo car whats something i should know getting into it and mods to help it run smoothly and some prevention mods as well.

Do stage 1 "less aggressive" ecu tunes exist? If so who makes spare Ecu's for this platform that would fit this need?

where you go bro

As someone who wants to get into building up my 13' vt into a more oem+ kinda build I think this is an awesome video to help point me in the direction I think I wanna start. Thanks!

Currently building a 2023 Forte GT MT, hope to see you come back soon with some Veloster updates and build videos!

Not bad, owner of a 2016 Forte5 SX manual , I’m looking for those numbers 250-290HP, nothing crazy head stud and gasket is a big project that I’m going to start, I do have exhaust, res delete, but am upgrading to hot pipe, down pipe catted, and catch cans are set up already, setting up Piersburg waste gate solenoid and MAC solenoid upgrades and already have bottom engine mount upgrade as well.. stuffed turbo is my last upgrade.. now intercooler I have an issue, I could do front mount but radiator has temp issues, could i still do a side mount instead but a bigger one? I saw one from Wagner intercooler but not sure if it’ll fit 🤷🏻‍♂️

Full bolt on you don't need a tune you need a tune at stage 2

Any update on the build? Hope you’re doing well!

im not sure accurate this information is, but assuming it is its really impressive the stock internals can survive past 300whp up until 350-400. I was worried about reliability trying to reach my target 240 wheel lol

Great video, very interesting n detailed. Any dyno performance scores on certain upgrades?

could you make a list of all things and possibly links to the parts to make it to the fbo stage? i’m not sure where to start, and what to first add to the car. i’m super new to this and im wanting to make this car speedy :)

Thanks, now I want to do meth...

Great video! I’ve been looking into buying a VT but I’m not up on what model I should go with. I’m wanting to give it more hp right away before I do anything else. Any words of wisdom?

Hey man, driving a facelifted proceed gt with the same engine. A famous tuner in the Netherlands, software tuned mine to 236HP and 375nm torque (275 foot pounds) He took the car in for 2 days and custom build/tested the remap specifically for my car (has a semi sport exhaust as well) Would love to hear your opinion.

Trouble is reliability tends to suffer if tuning too much look at gp bikes they need a rebuild after 1 race.😮

I’ve seen 500 hp in a 1.6T Veloster Turbo so 400 is do-able. Yes there was a lot if money put into it but it was worth it. The VT is an incredible car that does everything right.

just picked up a 2016 VT two weeks ago. bookmarking this video, i'm sure i'll be back many times!

have you heard about people replacing the high pressure fuel pump? I've been thinking of replacing mine since I have a feeling its faulty (or maybe the cam follower bearing thingo underneath it)

I got a 2016 and i also wish i got a golf gti instead lol. I love my velo but the turbo model does lack power. Hyundai shouldve put in the same 2.0t that they put in the genisis.

Stage 1 is a full tune (if you're dct) also a trans tune. Stage 2 would be full bolt on/ with tuning (wich is needed) Stage 3 would be an upgraded turbo. Nobody knows the upper limits of the stock motor due to the lack of aftermarket support and people only wanting to do basic mods like a race chip or jb4 an intake a resonator delete. Not wanting to void warranty. Fbo on 93 is likley on par with a gti fbo. On e85 I'm willing to bet this motors upper limits with an upgraded turbo is around 500hp. I have an 800hp Honda civic the b18c1 for example can squeeze around 400 and it wasn't designed for boost any more you need to build but a na motor that can take more than double factory power that was never meant to see boost. I have a 23 forte gt dct it's quick for what it is capable of keeping up with and beating stock 5.7 hemi cars. Kia is doing a disservice without putting the elantra n goodies or the 2.5t in it. That said these things should easily be capable of 300whp fbo 93 and tuning.

A key to getting off the line, you start to go on the 3rd Yellow. If you wait for green, you lost.

This is a very great information. Thank you. How can i reach you and what city are you located? I have a 2014 veloster turbo engine and have some issues with it. There is this knocking noise that comes up some times and it loses power when to accelerate harder. I will need your help with it if you can. we can communicate whichever way you want us to. Thanks

Only 280hp? Seems low but its quick i bet? I have 18 Tuscon im doing wmi soon g4fj

Seriously, apart from throwing around crazy ideas, the one that is obviously a crap suggestion is fitting a pod type air filter. The OEM intake and filter was designed for a reason by engineers not backyard mechanics. Do you not think that if they could get a couple of extra Kw, without jeopardizing long term engine life they would not think of a pod filter, really? Breathing hot air trapped inside the engine bay together with the other mods you recommend is a great way of ultimately affecting long term engine life. Making power safely...............TH-cam is such a great way to spread misinformation.

Are the 23’ Kona N Line 1.6T GDI the same engines as these? Not seeing any parts anywhere really being sold for that car so wondering if I can just buy them for the Veloster and they’d just match right up?

I’ve been looking for this video, I saw this maybe a year ago. I have a 2016 veloster base and planning to mod. This is a very good informative video.

See I have cobb access port on Mazda but I also have sxth element ek1 pro n75 motorsport stage 3 for 19 Veloster N but didn't know if u can do e tuning w the ek1 pro

Это тот же двигатель, что и мой 2023 Forte GT?

Nice video man, however I feel your numbers are about 50whp off. I had mine dyno tuned and based on their previous results a stock gen 1 VT makes about 140whp. Though I agree with most all of your mods and thorough descriptions, I do want to add that the biggest constriction of power is the intercooler- if I upgraded my intercooler I would have been able to get at least an extra 20-30 more whp (the stock one just heat soaks too quickly). Most tuners I talked to also said that if you're trying to hit the 300whp and above mark you have to upgrade the internals- the stock ones won't handle it. Was talking to a builder two weeks ago about upgrading the turbo and they warned me that even stuffing the turbo without upgrading the internals will quickly cause engine failure. Another big thing to consider with upgrading is what transmission you have. The 2012-15 the auto's are trash, the manuals are ok...16-18 the autos and manuals are ok, but the dct is garbage. I hope any of this is helpful. Thanks

Will this work for a forte gt manual 2023 1.6 turbo ???

RIP Ace Cafe. I'm new to the KDM scene in Orlando I'm trying to find where y'all go now 👀

Daniel is a great guy And u will get a lot of face Time with him working on revisions bc there will be many. He will be a good tuner one day.

LAP3 all day They did by big turbo (not hybrid turbo) Veloster N First >400whp in the states Running for 2 years stock long block Car happy as a clam Can’t say enough about LAP3 and David Chung

could i do these same upgrades for my accent? they are the same engines without a turbo. do you think i could use veloster performance parts on my accent too?

where in central FL they tune Veloster N?

I love what you are doing, but y bibnt you go with a manual transmission? I have a 2015 vt mt with 3" catless down pipe and a full 3" race exhaust, full injen intake, and a stage 2 tune pushing 255 whp on stock turbo. I could do a stuffed turbo and be at 350 whp. I think you are losing a lot of smiles per gallon on a dct.

Is there any place I can dm you some questions ? I have a 1.6t Kona n line and I’m clueless there’s not much out there for the Kona but we have the same motor and dct!
