I live in CA and for the most part you're right. However when it DOES rain.... where I live gets flooded easily so for that sake, I just play it safe. Would hate to be in a rush to work and go through a street where the water is a bit too high and flood my engine.
Just curious I’m going to take a look at this car but wondering how the fit is, I’m about 6 foot 320 pounds and I’m worried about the seat back being wide enough for me to sit in. Do you have any bigger friends that have drove it sat in it? Appreciate your videos I’ve been looking at buying a new car and you have made me obsessed with this car.
Is the amber delete legal? I thought that in The U.S they had reflector requirements (or something like that) for headlights. Also, thank you so much for all your veloster content.
I would state that it's probably not legal, but like many things, it really comes down to how your local authorities crack down on things. Here, where I live, it's something that isn't looked at our actively hunted down. Now, if you do something that would get you negative attention, this would probably be something to be included (like dark tint). I'd be careful just to be safe.
Love my VT - Your videos got me into modding it, got the deletes from auto styling the intererior LEDs, license plate leds and Typhoon intake. I want to do exhuast and a Bov eventually just nervous to take off my bumper. Oh and tons of stickers! KDM registy #3813!
IMHO I love those rims. I would keep them but that's coming from someone that have stocks lol perfect setup with wheels , and springs for a daily. Someday.....🙏
Hey Cheyness, hope you read this, but I bought your car, I was wondering if you can get in touch with me so I can discuss what mods you kept on the car when you sold it. Thanks, Sean
'15 VT here I have to park my car outside every day with little to no shade. How can I protect my paint? I have sun damage on the door that I plan to fix asap. Bought it 3 months ago.
Sadly no. What I ended up doing was replacing for a specialized LED kit made by LASFIT. It's pricey but it allows for the DRLs to function with the LEDs and when you enable the high beam, the lights brighten up as expected
@@leolevesque721 hahaa I try to reply to most comments. I did get more sound in the interior but thats what I meant when it said it sounded stock. At low RPM, inside it sounds a bit stock. Maybe a deeper rumble but not much louder. Outside you can hear it for sure but it's not obnoxious. Higher RPM or wide open throttle is where this sounds nice and clean but I feel most people want something louder.
Hey just came across your page. I just bought a 2015 Veloster turbo with 50k miles even, any things i should look out for in terms of problems? Automatic btw
@@Chayness yea my car got delivered today in the morning. Everything works well and i have never been in a car with such a nice interior. Im comimg from my dad's 05 mini van. The power is insane, im glad i went with the turbo. Im gonna subscribe to your channel, you seem down to earth. My only kink with is it, it feels just like my brothers mustang. you can feel every bump, what do you recommend for that? like i dont want to lower my car, i just want a smoother ride. Thanks again and stay safe, blessings from atlanta bro.
@@the_nuggetz1282 Well that's an easy fix but not always cheap. Most people swear by Koni's yellow shocks for comfort. They're amazing quality but also quite pricey. If the ride is really that bad, i'd check to make sure someone didnt already lower it (even if it's only a little) or check the stock shocks to make sure they're not leaking and causing the rough ride. Also thanks for the kind words!
There are a handful of tuners for this car but they require to send in your ECU to have it flashed, or to buy a seperate ECU and get that flashed with the tune. If you're looking for companies, there's SXTH, Tork, and LAP3 to name a few
@@BMWRelates Oh interesting.... I wonder if that was the same that they did for the other person I know too. Well i'm glad they replaced the part and that it's working.
Have a 2016 trying to get tips with out doing any cutting or modifying the stock exhaust any suggestions hard to find duals your clamp on to original exhaust
Its actually pretty easy. The thing you need to do is remove the fake exhaust ports (those big circular exhaust outlets are fake and bolted onto the rear bumper. Watch my Greddy exhaust video to see what I mean). Once you remove those ports, you'll actually see the ACTUAL exhaust outlets. They're quite small. My guess would be like 2" to 2 1/4" wide (make sure to measure) and buy the right sized clamp on tips. They should reach..... i've seen some pretty long extended exhaust tips lol
I can't personally speak for the mileage as i'm nowhere near that, but on 2016 models, I know plenty people who haven't had any issue and those who have was usually due to heavy modifications.
There's a video I released before this about Hyundai making "N Line" products for other vehicles. I also explain how the whole JDM culture does similar. It's not about Badging, it's about the higher quality part. I'm not putting N badges on the car, but the door sills for example are nicer than any of the stock sills and cheaper than aftermarket sills. Watch that video cuz it's kind of a long explanation. It's similar to how 2nd Gen VT owners are putting the Veloster N wing or side skirts on their cars when they don't have a Veloster N. I go into that as well. It's more or less typical car culture.
It's part of the whole "Aggressive Traction Control" issue. Turn of traction control sometime and just notice the huge difference in the way it drives. I personally don't want to use the Pedal Commander device, i'm just going to wait until I tune it. If you drive stick, another solution is disconnecting the top clucth pedal sensor but you will sacrifice cruise control. I'll do a video on that little trick later this year.
@@Chayness cruise control is the only thing that helps me not get tickets. I'll try driving with TC and SC off more and see how much difference it makes. Hyundai doesn't want us chirping second, huh?
@@Chayness yeah, I grew up with independent rears on Honda and Toyota cars. It's disappointing to see the sportiness of a car dashed because of a solid rear
@@Figgumz17 Yea, that was something I had to get used to as well. I for sure feel like I took a step down when it comes to that but still like this car a lot.
@@SaberxClimbs Absolutely! I've had a catch can even before the ADD W1 kit and every oil change I drain it, the can is like.... 1/2 to 3/4 full of oil it was able to collect. if it weren't for the can, it would have been able to gunk up on our valves and stuff.
Yea they should absolutely work thought the intake side might be a little different with routing as I believe the intake on NAV's is right in the front.
So far ive had the springs on about 2 years and my shocks are doing fine. One thing to mention however as that the Megan springs are probably one of the more less aggressive springs sold. As someone who's used more aggressive Eibachs before.... I'm certain these springs are fine but others with more aggressive drops may wear out the stock shocks much faster.
@@Chayness how much of a drop did you get after they settled in? I was thinking of getting the Megan or ark cause I read the arks work really well with oem shocks. My v is my daily and in long beach the streets suck so I don't wanna ruin my car
@@chris_allupinya5613 I believe it's a 1.5" drop in the rear and a 1.25" drop in the front. Ride is still comfy, shocks work great, no stiff feeling, and i'm also sitting on wheels that are perfectly flush with the body so no issues with rubbing.
@@slow_rednline4874 yea tell me about it to much money to keep up with gotta get buy new tires i think i need a whole new set of tires and a wheel alignment lil shaky after riding around a bumpy ass town wit 20s and no tread lmao
I agree with Edson.... as a first mod, though not the easiest, i'd say an Oil Catch Can is worth your time. From there.... the most common would be an intake.
i just bought a 2012 Veloster and was wondering if i can get any more power out of it i just bought a intake but i want to turbo it but i know that might mess my car up
I know that there is an aftermarket supercharger kit sold for them but at the price.... it's hard to stomach since im sure you didn't pay a ton for the Veloster. The kit is $5000+ oof!
I just got my 1st veloster turbo 2016... like your videos a lot. Good info. Im looking into starting the mods. Hope to see you on the road.!
Yea of course! That would be awesome. Congrats and good luck!
I like those wheels. good choice of mods, tasteful build, subscribed
Thanks! That mean's a lot!
Love your videos! They help me so much !
I'm glad to hear that! Thank you!

Hey Cheyness, hope you read this, but I bought your car, I was wondering if you can get in touch with me so I can discuss what mods you kept on the car when you sold it. Thanks, Sean
You could probably throw some trim restore on those mud flaps to bring em back to life!
Yea I legit have that exact thing but it's such a pain to do it sooooo often lol
Chayness fair enough! Great videos by the way.
@@ChrisHollobaugh Thank you sir!
'15 VT here I have to park my car outside every day with little to no shade. How can I protect my paint? I have sun damage on the door that I plan to fix asap. Bought it 3 months ago.
Where can I get a mount for my turbo xs bov? I’ve been looking around, where did you get yours?
Have you been able to bypass the DRL's? If so how did you do that? Great vids
Sadly no. What I ended up doing was replacing for a specialized LED kit made by LASFIT. It's pricey but it allows for the DRLs to function with the LEDs and when you enable the high beam, the lights brighten up as expected
Is the exhaust really as quiet as stock? I want to get some good sound, but I don't want something as loud as an MBRP exhaust.
It's quiet at low RPM but livens up on throttle and higher RPMs. It's clean.
@@ChaynessWow I didn't expect a response on this old of a video 😂. Do you get more sound in the interior too or just from the outside?
@@leolevesque721 hahaa I try to reply to most comments. I did get more sound in the interior but thats what I meant when it said it sounded stock. At low RPM, inside it sounds a bit stock.

@@Chayness im between this exhaust and the borla touring exhaust, but i dont know much about the borla
@@leolevesque721 I haven't heard the Borla but if it's anything like the Borla on my N Line, the Borla is louder for sure.
I'm excited to do my intake someday.. never done it be4

And BTR
Where did you get the clear cover for the radio (I have a 2019 veloster), I'm having a hard time finding one that doesn't have crappy reviews lol
I originally got it from amazon. The exact one is no longer listed sadly but theres many other brands that make them
AEM and K&N are the same company btw.
Really? Man i'm out of touch. Did K&N buy out AEM?
I had one major issue with the turboxs bov where the cap nipple actually snapped right off and they had to send me a new cap, it was scary
I actually had a viewer have the same exact issue! Odd. But TurboXS was nice enough to replace the valve.
Chayness they just sent me a new cap with a new screw on nipple which sounds different now but it was free
@@BMWRelates Oh interesting.... I wonder if that was the same that they did for the other person I know too. Well i'm glad they replaced the part and that it's working.
Chayness thank you!
@@BMWRelates Yea no problem
what kind can i get for my 2015 hyundai veloster turbo
What kind of what?
cold air in tank
@@shawnmarotte1499 There's quite a few brands. Its up to you. AEM, Injen, etc.
New to the channel. Just got a 2012 nav automatic dct. What would be the best budget friendly intake for mine?

I don't use them too often cuz of the banner but they're doing fine. no cracks on mine. Sorry to hear yours are having that issue :(

Chayness, your catch can isn't going to your PCV, that's going to you AEM intake, no?
I have dual catch cans. One comes from the intake back to the valve cover. The other can goes from the top of the cover back into the PCV.
@@Chayness if you only have a single catch can, where do you run the hoses?
@@SaberxClimbs I'd run them from the PCV side. I have a few catch can install videos that i'd recommend for you to watch.
