1 Year Later ~ 2020 Kia Forte GT w/ DCT

[@jbm0866]

As an old school tuner (yes, when the first F&F movie was still running in theaters lol) I must say almost all your mods are tasteful and well done. I've never been a fan of headlight lids or carbon fiber overlays for anything (even real ones) but I like everything else...especially the wheels, exhaust tips and rear diffuser. Well done!

[@StormAutoAdventures]

The JB4 isn't an ECU tune, so as long as you quickly put it back to stock and unplug it before taking it to the dealer, it won't void your warranty. Nice car man.

[@Hutchy86]

It still leaves traces that the dealer can detect if they look hard enough

[@SuppositionalBox]

@@Hutchy86 Like what, if you dont mind me asking?

[@vinny2474]

This was a cool video. most of these mods would be considered small or minor mods. but the truth is, for the average commuter, you dont want to spend an arm and a leg on mods. so i totally get it. im the same way

[@roboticvenom1935]

this car has better value then any competitor...

[@mrpringle4890]

Just got my own 2020 kia forte gt. I like a lot of the the mods done to this car and will probably do some of them to my own.

[@KingdomBounded]

Great video. Just wanted to note that the side skirt, and front winglets did require some cutting with a Dremel to fit properly

[@roboticvenom1935]

make videos on your kia!

[@eixeon395]

Can you link the cosmetics?

[@sergiorivas8755]

Excellent review. The owner is very smart and know how to do the mods in good quality. Good video! thanks.

[@cocochanel6495]

Nice mods and a great car. I had a 2017 Sx Turbo. Loved it. Still own a 2017 kia soul ex. Great car. Kevin in Edmonton, AB Canada

[@jayram7278]

Your ride is clean ! Im looking forward to getting my own kia next year !

[@ratedm90]

Love the production of the video.

[@stevenmalko1345]

Awesome video man i got the same car 25k miles only problem im concerned about is the dct LA traffic is no joke

[@mystiqblackcat]

His car looks slick, I like it a lot. I have a '21 Forte GT Manual in the same color, coming up on a year since I bought her and I'm still loving it.

[@michaeledwards6482]

Same I just bought one a little less than a month ago and it’s great. Have you had any problems with the transmission since you’ve had it?

[@mystiqblackcat]

@@michaeledwards6482 Nope, everything has been fine.

Update 2: The owner sold the vehicle. There won’t be an update. Update: There will be an update on this car in the middle of July.

No more Prius. Nobody gonna watch that 😂

[@lonniebeal6032]

I have DCT, don't feather the brakes, they are either on or off. I caused and overheat light for the trans just trying to run my Tucson ECO turbo up ramps.

[@davidtranmedia5112]

This is what you call a eBay/Amazon special but I will give it to you it is tastefully done even though you use cheap mods well done man because a lot of people that use eBay and Amazon as their source of mounting their car turns out really tacky looking but you did a very good job

[@SmokieTRW]

Love the style of video

[@diegoe4764]

[@king_of_savagery6289]

It looks good man. Can I ask how much horsepower you got out of the cold air intake? Do you have a rough guesstimate?

[@codacain2201]

Your video is well put together I appreciate that #1! I just bought a 2020 Forte GT Line and I’m feelin your upgrades you’ve done so far to yours. Q! Did your come with the paddle shifters behind the steering wheel? And another Q! Did you remove your badges yourself to installed the (K) logo

[@DoctaDrew]

Like the video, you should make more content bro!

[@Andrew-wo1qb]

Looks Awesome!! I'm contemplating getting the front and rear winglets. Do they ever get loose after installing them?

[@jumpercable20]

It's always better to use Summer only tires (In most cases they have a more aggresive treat pattern) for best performance instead of ALL SEASON tires, unless you live somewhere you have to deal with bad weather, up north. Love the car, I'm wanting to trade in my 2015 Optima LX, lowered with Eibach springs and went from 17's to Konig 18's with 235/45/18 tires, I'm the only one that ever drives or rides in the car, so I think a giant ride like this is just not needed, as I've always liked small two door cars.

[@EstevanRios-nw2yz]

where did you get those bumper plugs

[@ThatAussieBloke1]

I had a 2020 gt but sold it due to cost of living increases but I did have some gripes. Cabin noise was quite bad Carpet was very low quality DCT was very dumb at times Indicators being separated from the tail lights and headlights is a huge oversight and people don't always see you indicating. Too many red ricer highlights so I painted them all black Cruise control never held speed but could be due to the small engine

[@mroddydawg]

Is it lowered? I like how it sits. Also I’m in Md too haha. What part are you?

[@ricoe3288]

Please tell me you replaced your fog, license plate and back up light to LED.

[@Hutchy86]

Awesome review mate 👍 coming from a ‘22 GT owner. If your concerned about your warranty and a tune then definitely wait. Despite what people will say even a plug & play module like JB4 or Racechip leave traces behind that can be detected by the dealer if they look hard enough. How many year’s warranty is it there?

[@RavioliToes]

This is why i went to a manual transmission cause I don't trust the DCT I got the 24 kia forte GT and I'm getting all of my modifications done at the dealership because all of it is sponsored by kia so anything that I add like the ecu chip and cold air intake with exhaust is going to be all under warranty and not change the manufacture warranty

[@mikespencer3824]

What kind of tires do you like

[@CentraPlex]

You can also fix wheel hop with lower control arm braces

[@miltonramirez8901]

Or turn off the traction control off completely

[@mikespencer3824]

Do you still have you car?

[@Jeffe4506]

Yo where did you get that diffuser ? That thing is sick

@@Jeffe4506 Try imagine searching for it. I don’t have contact with the person anymore.

Nice ride bro but you should get a custom bent exhaust because it will allow your turbo breathe better and giving you more house power! Don’t forget the tune as well trust you won’t be sorry!

[@kilmorecombine0]

How much HP did all this give it?

without tuning, zero. the velossa tech air intake piece will actually rob you power down low or at least it did on my Focus ST, but they look cool.

Really wish they'd refine the styling a little more (remove that center tail light section) especially because it does nothing... but over all put the 300hp/300tq setup from the k5 in this... make it a gt3 package you get everything the gt2 comes with plus the awd and extra performance... my other gripe is this guy has no clue wtf he's talking about he doesn't know shit about cars
