Default Engine mods for 1996 Accent

Guys I have a problem where as I am from UK and they dont do any body mods let alone any engine mods apart from Induction kit over here. I have searched Internet and can only find stuff for 1.5L Accents in the US and Australia. Can anyone advise of any engine mods that might work for my car even though its only a 1.3L 12 valve SOHC

Most 1.5l parts should fit and run on your car with no problems. The ECU is a different story.

Hi Reidy, these are the few parts I can think of :-
F.S.E. Boost Valve, Ecotek Unit, Magnecor Plug Leads, Splitfire Triple Platinum Spark Plugs, Peco Universal back boxes, Nitrous Injection Kits........Demon Tweeks supply most of these, but see the Tuning mags. for the NO2 Kits.
Hope this helps, Nick.

Don't buy anything from Demon Tweeks it's a rip off!!! The prices in their catalogue don't even include VAT and they're still more expensive than everywhere else. Try Rage for an exhaust- they have a massive range and they're cheap www.rageexhausts.com. $am.:

I can't find anything on the Accent... I've got a 1996 SOHC and I can't find anything... The only thing I found were mufflers and spoilers that fit on any car. The popular brands should make things for Hyundais too. lol. Yeeeaaah...
