Pretty hard to make a tiny engine like that fast. You'd be better off with a swap of a Tiburon engine if they are allowed in your area.

It definitely won't be cheap. There aren't a lot of companies making aftermarket parts for the Accent (let alone engine mods for a 1.3L) so prices are up there.

If your mechanically minded, or know someone who is and has tools. You should so Beta Swap it. This is useing an Engine from a Tibruon or Elantra. Usually the 1.8-2.0 liter. Its one of the best things you could ever do to your car. It will go from snot slow to HOLY SHIT MAN! fast. Yeah....


Check out the Hybrid fourms and readup on the Beta swap.
