Hi,
Thanx for getting back so quick!!
Ive done a search on your site but to no avail.
Ive checked hyundaiperformance.com but there site is down so i sent some dude called Rob a mail. I cant find a single thing to do with it.
I know what you mean by after market stuff. It's really hard to get mods!! I cant even get chips for it that will do any difference.
The 4 branch wont make any noticable difference... If im wrong please tell me! I just want to get a lot A LOT more power out of my car. Any way at all.
Please help

you can get a turbo setup for your car for a few grand and then you have to have it tuned. There aren't any drop-in turbo's for our cars yet.

if you want power fast, on a stock setup, get a upgraded fuel pump and a 75shot of ZEX nitrous. that'll give you more power for alot less. then later you can build a turbo for it.

hey,

Idont mind paying a few grand! I just cant find one.
How much more hp will a fuel pump give me? And where can i pick one up. As for NOS i dont really want to have to keep on re-building my engine every 4 months. Especial on the roads in Ireland.
If i push the nos button and hit a pothole (Irish roads are terrible) I would be shot into a barrier only to be turned into a flaming ball of flesh

well a fuel pump would just let you get your stock engine to take a 75shot and not explode

Alpine Developments in South Africa
Ballistic Racing in South Africa

Ballistic may not be doing complete kits, but they can get you a lot of the parts. Alpine is a *complete* kit, but it is lacking in quite a few areas. However, it may not be a bad starter for upgrades and such.

I believe there's a Greddy kit and another kit available in Korea, but they are like $4000 to $6000 complete. I wouldn't have a clue how to get one to Ireland.

Search on Alpine, Ballistic, UFB, and Greddy and it should get you some results.

Excellent i'll give them a go.
Mod'ing a tib is a pain in the *ss. I bout 2 carera recliners (the top of the range ones) They nearly cost me £800 and sparco sub frames. I have to cut my original frames and weld the little piece at the front of the frame that slopes down on to the sparco ones so they will fit!!

You are still going to need that fuel pump if you go turbo.
