Hyundai Elantra Forum The Hyundai Elantra Forum. Later models (96-up) of this 4-door share their Beta engines and chassis with the Hyundai Tiburon. Earlier Mistubishi-based Hyundai Elantras (92-95) are perfect candidates for the popular 4g63t motor swap, which turns the Hyundai Elantra into a real sleeper. These characteristics make the Hyundai Elantra a great car for those who want sports car performance with family car flexibility.

You will need to experiment, not a lot (none) members on EXD with HD's have been doing pretty much anything with their engines...

Take a picture of your engine bay and post it up and I'll compare to the Fujita to see if it's even potentially possible.

I'm pretty sure you can get away with Tubing->MAF>Filter (or extend after MAF into a certain location for a CAI, but you don't have a lot of room to work with since the ECU is next to the airbox.

Time to pioneer!

Well a GK Tib CAI won't fit on there right, that's for sure. Is the MAF part of the airbox lid now or is it just really close?
