@overlymaing1132 definitely not cost effective at all to add turbo to your model. I don't know that I would really recommend spending too much on the base model Veloster but again that's something you can decide the value in for yourself. I personally just like to modify things. So anything I can do to improve the look and feel, or the drivability, and it makes myself enjoy the vehicle more then I say yes do it. Just remember a car is rarely ever an asset that increases in value.

Just bought myself a veloster, and the previous owner was an idiot kid who messed up the car. I need to do a lot of fixing on it, and one thing is the bumper. I will be doing the bracket thing. But the top of my bumper does not look like yours. There are only 2 bolts in the middle. I assume the outer ones were cut off for some reason, and there is no shield any more. I assume I will need either a new bumper or new shield. Where did you get your bumper? And where did you get that amazing blue bracket it's bolted to?

@stevethewoodypeterson 27 күн бұрын
Personally I recommend adding catch cans or at least 1 of the off the pcv valve. You need to keep an eye on it though because if you let it get filled up then the can is no longer doing anything good for you. Is it an absolute necessity? No not exactly but it definitely helps to keep oil blow by from ending up back in your intake manifold.

Hola amigo, espero que estés bien, encontré este video ya que estuve buscando por todos lados alguna manera de modificar el motor de mi auto, es un HYUNDAI i25 GDi, (accent) Motor G4FD, por lo que eh querido llevarlo a otro nivel, colocarle un motor G4FJ (para turbo) por lo que no se nada de esto, pero si vi que el motor que quiero instalar, es compatible para i30, veloster, accent etc.. entonces decidí comprar el motor pero necesitaba mas instrucciones, tu video es una joya, por lo que tiene buenas guías, ahora quisiera hacerte unas preguntas que me tienen en duda, cual es el turbo que va en ese motor, que lleva el intercooler? a que va conectado? el turbo utiliza aceite? como vez, no tengo idea que lleva cada cosa, soy un aficionado a este mundo de TUNING, pero quiero saber a tu forma de explicar donde va tal tubo, que linea hay que colocar, que clase de tubo hay que comprar, etc etc etc.. tienes Instagram o Facebook o whatsapp para poder comunicarme con usted? saludos desde Panamá!

@@HagenVillani I had to use Google translate to understand sorry I don't speak or read Spanish. Thanks for checking out my videos. If I'm understanding correctly you have a Hyundai accent with a non turbo engine in it and you want to add a turbo to it. I would not recommend doing this because the internal parts of your engine are not designed to handle the extra power that adding a turbo will give. There are multiple other issues you will have when trying to add a turbo to your model.

Hello, thanks for answering, I understand you well, well, in my case, I want to change the engine that is G4FD to a G4FJ engine, The G4FJ engine is compatible for accent, i30, veloster etc. So if it is possible since the G4FJ engine is compatible for turbo, the same specifications indicate it, since my engine is not possible.

@HagenVillani oh I see you want to swap the whole engine. That is doable, but you will also need the correct engine wire harnesses and ECU for the turbo engine. Honestly it's not something that is really worth doing when it's all said in done in my opinion. For that kind of effort and money involved you could probably do a b series or k series Honda swap for less money and time.
