Welcome to the site.

Like endlessmike mentioned, check out the newbie forum. There is a lot of info that may be relevant to you. He's not trying to give you a hard time, but just pointing you in the right direction.

This is a link for new people to the forums which might help you out.

[body]#4 Dont ask questions like "How can I make my car faster"
There are hundreds of ways you can make a car faster and most of them are correct.
You need to make a game plan on what you want to achieve and how much money you want to spend. [/body]
Useful links, which is a sticky in the Newbie forum.

http://www.hyundaiperformance.com/fo...ic.php?t=18942

It depends on what you want to do and which direction you want to go. You can't expect everyone just to give you all the information. Although this is a forum, many questions have been asked and it is all there for you to find.

You can go turbo, supercharger, nitros oxide, or even a beta swap (1.8L or 2.0L engine from the Tiburon or Elantra). There are separate forums for Forced Induction and Naturally Aspirated tuning and many Accent owners have contributed there.
Most things for Hyundai's have to be custom made, but there are aftermarket parts out there and a lot of the stores are listed in the link with usefull links.

You would also want to do suspension and break modifcations also if you are going to do a lot of engine mods.

If you would also add what car you drive in your profile, it would show up under your username so that you don't have to tell everyone what car you have.

Ivadell.....there are quite a few things you can do to make your 1.5 Accent a LITTLE faster, but from a standpoint of serious power at reasonable cost, your choice lies between a) fitting Nitrous Oxide Injection & b) swapping in a 2-litre Beta engine.
The Beta could then be turbocharged at a later date.
Cheers,
Nick.
