Twin-turbo? Daaaaaaaaaaaaaamn. jaw_drop </div>Ever see that photo of the wacked out Ford Festiva looking car with a huge front splitter and huge rear wing? It had an XG350 motor, twin turbo in the rear hatch area (nuthin up front but the wing). I'll try to dig the photos up and post them in General/Off Topic.

Another neat thing on the 3.5L is the dual stage intake runner. It has small open runners and also has motor driven butterfly valves that open a second set of larger runners.
I am campaigning for one once the Elantra I have is paid off. 3.5l, 5spd auto, FWD, eibachs, 255 rubber. Plus with no rear wheel drive the center tunnel is wide open for a nice dual exhaust if you remove the spare from underneath. I am sure a custom CAI would be possible also. If this motor responds as well as the 2.7l to bolt-ons the power could be up to around 220hp. That would be a fun Santa Fe.

When is Hyundai going to bring the LZ450(a.k.a the Cenntennial) to this country? They have it on there U.S website in the customs section. That thing should be in the super luxury category.
