Welcome! Not a bad looking car there (except for the doors in my opinion ). It's not totally my style, but everyone is different.

Enjoy your stay here.

and blow your internals all over the place, and never get any kind of stick from the clutch. Honestly man, its your cash and everything but you could get such a better to to focus on performance with than that shark. But like i said, its your dime.

Good luck with that. You may want to learn not to claim numbers before you have them - it will save you some heartache and disappointment when the dyno spits out the results. I foresee many broken parts if and when you reach 300whp, too, so be prepared with the fundage...

well im just talking from the #s the company claims.... plus the many people who have them. stg1 supposely will put me at 280whp. and thats with jus aftermarket headers. since i have exhaust, and IM's. people say with a good tune i will prolly hit 300whp. as for internals. people say my internals will be ok unless i go 330+whp. a guy is running a stg2 at 15psi for over a year and his car is still fine.

for me 300whp is my goal anyways. i dont want any higher than that. lol i know and ive been told that if i hit 300whp. that i will eventually want more.

and as much as it sounds i didnt spend to much on my car. so far ive only spend a total of $2500-2800 right now. and if i make a deal with this guy who might sell me his s/c kit it will only run me about 2500. and i only got the car for 19k brand new out the door. i know hyundai has a bad rap. but i got it bc it has potential and is a underdog.... plus how embarrasing will it be if a original car like a s2k or a 350z got beat by a hyundai lol.
