mods for NA/Turbo - Hyundai Performance Forums

bleidell · 11-05-2003, 07:12 PM

ok this is my question. First of all my 2001 Tib is N/A, i am considering on going turbo but am not sure yet. I am wandering what mods i could do to my car that will increase performance on an N/A engine, but at the same time would not be replaced if i did decide to go turbo. I do understand that such mods as headers and other basics will be replaced. THanks guys

well... a bored TB and bored IM wouldnt, if you get a 3" exhaust which is kind of big for NA wouldnt get replaced, stage 3 clutch, lightweight flywheel, if you have a manual tranny and lightweight pulleys, performance wires and plugs.. thats probably it.. i think youd have to get different cams and compression pistons switching from NA to FI.

i was looking at teh s-AFC 2
will this work with a turbo as well?

yes that will work for you if you plan on using that for your fuel management on your turbo set-up otherwise just use the piggyback that comes with a turbo kit if your getting one. a standalone would be great!!!

S-AFC2 is good to a point because it has limited points to plot on the fuel map and cant control ignition timing.. a better choice would be an SMT-5 or SMT-6 because it has more points to plot on the map and can control ignition timing

dont get an intake. that will be replaced.

i was lookin at the smt-6
the one problem is i wont be gettin turbo for prolly another year. Will this chip still improve a N/A car, also whats the best way to customize the chip?

its not a chip its a programmable unit that can modify your ECU signals. it is programmed via laptop and has a LOT of tunability in A/F ratio and ignition timing.

yes it is well worth it N/A or F/I
