Doing What No One Else Has! -The Next Mod for my Elantra N from Boomba Racing!

[@maxhunt2644]

And THIS is why your channel is excellent! Great video, great lighting and great "captions". What you don't cover in the captions, you cover...or expand upon later. You have a knack for this and it's fun to watch. Unfortunately, my dealer says ANY mods void warranties. I'd love to at least install a catch can but even that would force me to take it somewhere else for service, unless I take it off everytime. I even mentioned the replacement bushings and he said (sarcastically) ANY mods will void your warranty. If I could afford it, I'd tell them where they could stick their warranty. Oh well...maybe in a year or so when i start caring less about the warranty! Thanks Brandon! Good stuff!

[@ENtense]

Thanks for always watching Max! I appreciate the feedback and while this video took me a long time, I am proud of how it turned out! Also your dealer can shove it, lol

[@BoombaRacing]

Killer video man, we appreciate you sharing your experience w the spacer kit!!

[@ENtense]

Thank you! You guys rock 👊🏻

[@Fruitay425]

Yeah, you guys have some great looking and exciting stuff 👍 I'd love an oil catch can from you guys over anyone but... that "W" word 😬 The moment I say "screw the warrenty!" I'll be getting some things. It's very tempting. Especially since I have your website on my homepage. That throttle body and spacer look perfect. Seriously nice. Very tempting indeed. Please keep up the good work 👏 🙌 Oh and thanks for hooking Brandon up! I particularly like his videos and it's how I found out about you guys ✊️

100 percent recommend buying this if you are just a daily or a weekend warrior with your N. Purchased this myself and you noticle the car react much more fluid when pressing on the gas pedal.

[@LeftenantMalachi]

Good video Brandon. Definitely not worth the work or money for me, but still good to know it gives a very modest gain in response and not complete snake oil. I've always wondered about these kinds of mods.

[@DabnTinkerbell]

Thank you, first thing I wanted to do with my Elantra N when I get it in a few weeks was putting a spacer kit on it!

[@razormetal127]

I just went and got my first oil change at Hyundai in Carmel Indiana. I asked the coolest looking dude there I could find lol about warranty situations. He pretty much said they will find an excuse if you leave any parts on there and bring it in for warranty, like no matter what you put on there they will find a reason to why that part you put on there mess this up I said even if it doesn’t make sense. He said yes it’s sad, but true, but on the other hand, if I bring the car in for an oil change, I can have a tune on it down pipe and air intake I can have anything on it I want and it’s completely fine. They won’t tell on you. but you bring it in for a warranty claim they will find any excuse to deny you is what I’m told.

[@N-Krazy1976]

The intake spacer will definitely bring down intake temperature and the throttle body spacer will help with turbulence in the intake also. Once you put an air intake and tune she will light right up!😜💯

[@ENtense]

I need an intake 😭😭😭

[@N-Krazy1976]

@@ENtense I personally don't think the money spent on the intake will be worth it there mostly for sound and will actully drive up intake air temps Tune is where your going to find all the extra power Hyundai is hiding in the conservative factory tune.

I am not sure the gains are worth the work, besides the TB spacer with port to use with meth or a 5th injector for E85. I think getting a lap3 tune would be more beneficial

[@teej_youtube]

i def agree i would not waste my time doing this when there is more power to be made with less work or if you are going to do the work then better quality parts then this.

[@sbklvr]

Awesome stuff, keep up the good work. I wanted one of these so badly. Looking at maybe getting the 24 as a second car. Torn between this and the 24 Alfa Giulia Competition.

I absolutely will NOT be doing this one. This is way beyond my skillset. I do have a friend who is very good with cars, but it just seems like too much for me. Awesome vid tho. Appreciate that you've taken the time and effort to share your experience.

[@raispang6258]

Excellent video content! I have a question. Since you've removed the intake manifold, did you have a chance to look at any of the intake and intake valves for the dreaded carbon deposit build-up? If you did? How was it? Could you give us a severity rating, say from 1 to 5? 1 being least contaminated(clean) and 5 being horrible. I can see that your throttle valve is not that dirty too. I am thinking of doing routine valve cleaning maintenance, say every 20-30K miles, if it's terrible. Thanks.

[@cindysue5474]

An old tooth brush and carb cleaner would of cleaned them right out the kind that vibrates and wipe out with a rag.

[@4drturbo85]

Looks like he's running an oil catch can too so that's going to help

[@ENtense]

I quickly wiped everything down that was on the surfaces and any excess oil/carbon deposits. But to be fair everything was minimal, I’d definitely say the lowest on the severity scale. Plus I still only have 4,500 miles… lol

[@raispang6258]

@@ENtense Thanks, Brandon. Yeah, one would not expect much if any at 4.5K. Mine is at 10.5K. I had seen one at 70K KM, and quite surprisingly it is acceptably "clean" for that mileage. Much much better than anticipated. Anyway looking fwd to your next post. Brgds.

[@anthonyscott5484]

I have this myself I was always hesistant on long term reliability so far had this on Almost a year and yes you def notice a throttle response change, and slight delay in turbo (which I personally don’t mind too much) if there’s any gains to come from this it’s probably just changing the power curve. Company’s can claim false gains on dynos Now a days with these bolt ons

[@Jcastro9444]

Yea im just gonna get the turbo inlet , closed intake and a lap3 1.5 93 tune. It'll be fast enough and still reliable.

[@ENtense]

I definitely want to get an intake and inlet as well

@@ENtense it’s definitely louder than stock but it’s not crazy loud. It’s suppose to be the best one for power gains though ! That’s why I got it. My stage 2 tune should be in this week and my tuner recommends the AFE intakes so that’s what I did !

I’ve done the spacers on other cars and felt zero difference and saw no benefit to them at all, so I won’t be doing this mod, but nice to see more mods being designed for the Elantra N.

[@LongRaider996]

I still remember my dealer offered me the Dealership package which means I need to pay around $5k more and they will cover aftermarket parts, whatever I tuned my car they will cover it! But it covers only 3 years!

[@litdoe7021]

Nice. but not worth for me doing mods that might void warranty, if u have an issue even if u uninstall the parts, data gets saved and they can see that. and i also dont feel the need to go faster on my 23 EN. I got it in march and i rarely drive it. Only has 737 miles.

[@jayrazon3062]

I couldn't help but notice that you dont have drl tints anymore on the thumbnail. They came off or you took them off? I just got my badgeskins yesterday so im curious. 😂

[@cindysue5474]

To keep all the metal and plastic looking like new get a can of Meguiars Back to black after doing a engine wash and dry spray it on all the parts it will soak into the metal parts and plastic making them look like new and protect them let it set or you can still drive look at it the next day you will see what I mean.Would of been a good time to use some carb cleaner and a old tooth brush and scrub out the intake runners.

[@ENtense]

I realllllly wanted to clean it all up, but with time not on my side and then dropping the socket in the abyss, that ruined any of those plans 😂

[@uutube243]

The dyno sheet was printed in 2020..

[@ENtense]

Was done on a Veloster N

[@BoombaRacing]

Hello! Just chiming in here, we can confirm that the parts were initially tested on a Veloster N but did prove better low-end torque from both the intake and manifold spacers in our testing. We were featured previously by Edge Motorsports about our spacer kits on Focus STs where power was also dyno-proven. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gma4gqKbp652aKs

[@WolfCommander]

They have to prove an aftermarket part voided the warranty, in your case, that would be a little easier since its documented. for others, it may be a bit harder for them to prove. either way, even stock, they'll fight you tooth and nail over the warranty, so just do it _(if youre gonna keep the car for more than 3 years, if not, keep it stock - wont be your's long)_

[@ENtense]

Yeah I feel you there, I’m putting myself out there if anything does happen lol. But great points on deciding this stuff depending on how long you’re going to keep it for sure 👍🏻

Not true..I have a open down pipe fbo jb4 tuned car nline elantra with trans issues they didn't even care they just updated the software..my last car was 22 kona n line same jb4 the turbo blew they had me come take it off so they could take pictures for hyundai corporate they warrantied the car and I bought n line and trade the kona in blown turbo and all

[@patrickbilodeau3785]

Seems like way too much work for such a tiny power bump. Are you tuning it this spring/summer ?

[@teej_youtube]

Nice vid however this is not worth the work IMO I suggest anyone who wants more power to just get a stage 1 tune. Stage 1 tune is actually how this car should of been from factory imo

[@ENDCT-mx5ei]

Completely agree. On other cars these spacers have been Dyno proven to reduce horsepower and torque so why waste your money on maybe a few horsepower you'll never know.

[@BoombaRacing]

@@ENDCT-mx5ei Hi! Luckily our parts have been dyno-proven and while they do not produce higher peak numbers, they do aid in moving the torque and hp curve higher on the lower-end and providing better throttle response off-the-line.

These have been dyno proven to reduce HP in other cars so I'll pass on these things.

[@BoombaRacing]

Hello! Other designs and companies have made products that have not produced power but our parts have been specifically dyno-tested and has shown that while peak hp/tq does not increase, the lower-end hp/tq does increase providing better throttle response. While it is not necessarily the highest power-producing part you can purchase it most definitely provides an increase in response due to more air volume capacity in the intake manifold and throttle body. No pressure on making a purchase, just wanted to provide some information. We also were featured in a video of our throttle body/intake manifold spacers installed on a Focus ST and they were dyno-proven to produce power as well: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gma4gqKbp652aKs
