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.

Default my intake idea for the HD

OK so on other site we are trying to figure out how to make a CAI work with the HD set-up....... well my idea is to leave the air box and inlet over the radiator and removing all the ducting before and after the air box and replacing it with tubing..... this in turn would cancel out ALL resonators and would make the flow better by making the tubing more of a straight shot from inlet to the air box to the throttle body..... I'll try it thursday and post pics and SOYP test results
