Just to get a new post in this forum:
What's your current engine setup?

What are your plans for the future?

Vehicle: Two Accents, Mini, Miata, Van, Outback, and a ZX-6
Default

2003 Accent GT
1.6l DOHC

Currently:
--Short ram intake
--Axle back exhaust

What's changed in 3 years:
--Everything. I bought the car 3 years ago and was not a member of this forum before it was reopened.

Future:

Current Accent:
--Already ordered header prebuy through Team SR
--Will complete mid section of exhaust when I install header
--Possibly going the Powerchip route
--No plans for major power out of this car

Future Accent purchase:
--Want to verify that a Theta will physically fit in engine bay
--Install Theta with all custom wiring, standalone, and a lot of fabrication under the hood
--Possibly turbo on the Theta, but fitment will surely be an issue
--If a Theta can't fit, I will cry then consider an Elantra for the transplant of a turboed Theta

Somehow it lost a few liters...

Went from the Hyundai Tiburon to the MINI Cooper. It's a supercharged 1.6L. I enjoy it, but I'm going to trade it for a Honda Civic soon.
