These things are nuts ...Kia hasnt been known to be reliable but this thing is nasty...but these cars are something else..and they look so good

[@archiarch10]

Even after their brand redesign, I still don’t consider the Stinger a Kia. Engineered and designed by Germans it’s a wannabe BMW manufactured in Korea. The 3.3tt seems to be bulletproof so far but still underperforms compared to the B58. Like you said though they look so good so it’s cool how unique they are on the road

[@BudderChicken101]

@@archiarch10it’s actually just cosmetically designed from a famous designer of Audis! They’re rwd based so people equate them to BMWs but they’re essentially all Kia! Very cool

[@archiarch10]

@@BudderChicken101 Here to inform you you’re partially correct but also incorrect…Albert Biermann was the head of development for the Stinger/G70 and he comes directly from BMW M (31 years). Peter Schreyer (Audi) had a big influence on the design which is what you’re mentioning, he’s well known for the TT design. The Stinger/G70 is not coincidentally just another RWD platform, it was engineered by one of BMW’s best, which is why it was such a competitive car for the price. It took 2 years for BMW to release something better…M440i Grand Coupe and the only other real competitor was the S5 Sportback, which both cost significantly more.

Wow no Meth injection either So this truly a set and forget upgrade package ? Anyone notice boost leaks after turning up boost ?

Yes sir! No boost leaks. Water meth would help for sure, but with proper tuning 450WHP is achievable on 93 octane only.

@@alexflores5227 It is very far off since this was AWD dyno result. AWD also makes 30-40WHP less than RWD dyno. That means this car as is would make 470-480WHP on 93 octane RWD. Yes, that's extremely far off.

Just follow the guides and it shouldn't be too hard. I have heard people get quoted $400 just for the spark plugs which is crazy. I just ordered that kit and it shipped out today. I should be installing it this Saturday as long as it gets here by then.

[@chafnutgaming0003]

@@drkphnx2006hey how has it been? I want to get this kid but 450whp sounds like a lie, was it worth it?

[@drkphnx2006]

@@chafnutgaming0003 It's so worth it, the power is great. I run map 4 with E30 blend, and I haven't had any issues at all. It took a bit to install the spark plugs, but if you get 2 swivel sockets it makes it so much easier. There's a few videos out there showing how to do it. I got the BMS kit that includes the intakes, oil catch can, spark plugs and the JB4. I think it took a little over 2 hours to do everything. The spark plugs took the most time, the Intakes were easy to install and the JB4 was super simple, I did the the extra clips so I didn't have to tap into the wires. I also then ordered the Fuel it! sensor and app so that I could more easily monitor my E30 mix. It works great. I don't use the calculator on the Fuel it app, as it didn't seem to work great. I just usually do 1 gallon of E85 per quarter tank of fuel, once im at E30. so if I have half a tank of E30, it's about 2 gallons of E85 and the rest 93 octane. If I have 1/4 tank, then 3 gallons of E85 and the rest 93, and so on. It's usually pretty spot on.

[@drkphnx2006]

Oh and to answer your question, I didn't Dyno it, but I would say that 450 is probably a little exaggerated unless it's at the crank. I would say it's closer to 400-420rwhp, which is still really good, you can definitely feel the difference.

[@cheesecodm2678]

Does tuning with all this stuff affect gas mileage?

Check your firmware and make sure you’re running the correct one for your car

I updated it to the current firmware but I kind of want to reset it back to factory and try again.

[@kineticautoworks]

@@deadpool1092 double check your installation too. If the firmware is correct then it may be something mechanical. If the gauge info still isn’t showing up on the app then you also might have a faulty circuit board. Def call Burger Tuning for support.
