Hyundai has again teamed with Bisimoto Engineering, allowing the powertrain tuners to build a 708-horsepower flex-fuel Sonata for the SEMA show.
"team is starting with Hyundai's 2.4-liter four-cylinder Theta-II engine that produces 190 ponies and 179 lb-ft of torque in the entry-level Sonata.
As expected, many of the engine components needed to be strengthened to handle the extra power from a high-boost turbocharger. Bisimoto installed new forged pistons, connecting rods, a high-revving valve train and camshafts."
