hey guys!

Well let me introduce myself, My name is Andrew, 18 y/o and ready to turbo my tibby! Dont take me as a noob just because i just join RD. I have been lurking around here just never posted. Im more active on nt.com. well enough about me, here is what i have planned for my baby. Im going to run about 18psi on her daily, kdmguy said that should get me around 300hp. (well see if he can really pull that off..)

To start she is a 2004 red I4 vvt tibby. Isn't she a beaut!?



Just for the record this will be my first turbo build ever, but it helps that my dad is a boat mechanic, and used to build cars and bikes when he was younger.

hmm thats all the stuff off the top of my head

tell me what you think!

 

Sounds good mate, and welcome to the site.

 

i thought GK's were map based allready?

 

sounds good. actually thats almost an identical setup to mine besides i dont have pistons yet and wont be running as high of boost from the start for that reason. i look forward to dyno numbers. welcome

Nice catch.

Actually, the 2003's were MAP. In 2004 they went to the Beta 2.5 (CVVT), and that went back to MAF.

The 2001 Through 2003 Elantra's are also MAP.

 

lol yep redzman hit the nail on the head! Thanks for replying to all.. but do you think those pistons will hold up to about 300 hp??

kind of heard some bad and some good things.. would like some more input on this tho

 

I think you need a bigger turbo for 300whp.

 

nice f-ing picture(1st one).

and welcome

lol thanks... i love taking pics of my car.. ill post some of my other good ones..

 

whoa that's probably the nicest new tiburon i've ever seen. excellent photos man you should submit them to magazines.

you're 18? damn i'm nowhere near a turbo and i just turned 22. congratulations, i think it's cool to have some assistance with an expert. i know you'll be able to get some serious boost out of that thing.

is that rally red color? i've been trying to steal that color. i was afraid of it turning orange under night light.

rims look like O.Z. Superturismo, i take it they're in the same style? looks hot. good luck.
