[@iCATCHpedos]

[@TheWaveReport]

damn this some good content i just got a forte and its hard to find channels who do mods so i guess this is my new happy place lol

[@PetrolJuice]

@@TheWaveReport thanks! That’s honestly part of the reason why I wanted to upload forte content, there’s barely any content out there. I’m glad you’re enjoying it and thanks for watching!

[@TheWaveReport]

@ you’re welcome keep the content coming and post links so ppl can buy what you’re showing etc enjoy your day

[@2aprinter]

This is was easier than removing the bumper from the older 2nd gen fortes

[@PetrolJuice]

@@2aprinter oh wow I had no idea it was different

[@dubb7530]

another cool forte vid. glad i found ya since i am lookin at mods for my new forte. i do wanna keep my warranty so i gotta make sure what will and wont void it.

[@PetrolJuice]

@@dubb7530 thanks! Smart move. I’m just putting mods on and hoping I won’t have to use my warranty in the future 😅

[@DJSLANKMAN]

Forte looking nice bro. Thanks for the video, this is the next thing im gonna install. The RGB one

[@PetrolJuice]

@@DJSLANKMAN you’re welcome! Thanks for watching! The RGB one looks great!

[@liftedviewz]

Hey! Cool video per usual! I cant decide if i wanna do the black vinyl chrome delete but im def thinking about it

[@PetrolJuice]

@@liftedviewz thanks! They both have their pros and cons, but all depends what you’re trying to achieve! You’ll like the results either one you choose

[@p0wderc0atman]

Thanks for the video! I'm removing the red accent on the front and need to remove the bumper cover to access the clips. I was able to remove the diffuser in rear to access the screws and clips to get the red accent out without removing the rear bumper if anyone runs across this video doing the red delete. Thanks!!!!

[@PetrolJuice]

@@p0wderc0atman you’re welcome! Glad I could help

[@derek-iy6ch]

A lot of people cut that cross hatching in the intake behind the "snorkel" to open up the airflow

[@Jeffe4506]

So what do these do exactly? I’m thinking about getting one

[@PetrolJuice]

@@Jeffe4506 they just help “route” the air more directly into the air intake. They don’t do much, mainly for aesthetic and very minimal performance increase

[@Jeffe4506]

@ oh ok cool! Hey I’m all for anything that helps the life of my car! I just installed the takeda I messaged you about a week ago and I love it! Your vid was better than the instructions so highly appreciated!

[@PetrolJuice]

@ thanks for watching bro and I’m glad I was able to help!

[@DJSLANKMAN]

Did you self install the duckbill spoiler? if so how easy was it. Thinking of getting one soon

[@PetrolJuice]

@@DJSLANKMAN my friend installed it himself, he said it was relatively simple. Just takes some time out of your day

[@marck.5116]

Another great video. Can we have the link for the spoiler?

[@jakobmorrison]

Yes I would love to know as well?

[@PetrolJuice]

@@marck.5116 my friend said it’s an EBay spoiler, he doesn’t have the link anymore unfortunately. But I’m pretty sure it should be easy to find on eBay!

[@jobansingh6711]

Can you share what mm spacers he got on that. I have been thinking of getting them but wasn’t sure if they’d look good. Now i know they WILL.

[@PetrolJuice]

@@jobansingh6711 he actually has no spacers, just the wheels put on. Not sure of the size and offset though. He got them used

[@tonyiafolla1448]

If you had to do it again, any chance you'd be able to leave the underside rivets in, and just pull the top of the bumper away to install the Velossa intake?

[@PetrolJuice]

@@tonyiafolla1448 Honestly I don’t think so since the top of the bumper is curved into the body pretty good. Im sure if you pulled it back from the top too much it can break the rivets on the bottom.

[@princesssabado1905]

Where did you buy the spoiler?

[@piranhalegify]

Hey do you know what brand rain guards he went with?

[@PetrolJuice]

@@piranhalegify clover I believe

[@Itz_lawrence22]

Yo where did he get the rain guards?

[@carlostecu5438]

what does the velossa tech do and can I add another one to the left side of the car?

[@PetrolJuice]

The Velossa Tech just helps route air directly into your air box and looks cool, that’s about it! Simple mod and works great also if you have an aftermarket intake (although it helps a bit with stock as well). You can only route it to the side where I have installed it to in this video

[@MarioMan6004]

Do you have a link to the duckbill and roof spoiler? This is exactly how I want my car to look 😩

[@PetrolJuice]

@@MarioMan6004 I don’t unfortunately, but probably on eBay! It’s not my car

[@kingkillerx6922]

Why doesnt he have pbv delete???

[@PetrolJuice]

@@kingkillerx6922 he does! With the DCT, it’s a lot harder to hear since when you shift in a DCT, you don’t let go of the throttle, therefore no “whoosh” sound. It’s a lot better heard with a manual since you let go of the throttle between shifts

[@AMT_Ted]

Yeah, idk about taking advice from a guy that calls a ratchet a wrench repeatedly. Anyone who is thinking of buying this car, don't. I bought one new and owned for over a year and I will admit not a bad car but not a great one either. With FBO the most you can get is 250whp. I was really disappointed when I found out after buying the car. Looked into Elantra N but it lacks a lot of interior features I like in a new car. The forte GT and even the K5 GT lack the refinement and tuneability aspect I was looking in a car. If you're like me and want a great daily with good mpg that's not a hatchback, get a Jetta GLI. It's insane how much power those cars can make and how nice they are on the Inside. Kia killed me with small things they cheeped out on that overall make a car a car. Like you're telling me they couldn't put automatic up down windows for a least the front two seats? My 2015 work van has those, and a fully loaded brand new car doesn't? Don't waste your time or money on this car. Either get a Kia stinger, Genesis G70 or, Jetta GLI. I like your content btw, thought I'd share my experience.

[@JlunaPlays]

Im not to sure i could trust Volkswagon cars anymore, one of my friends was driving theres and it blew a head gasket!! 💀😭😭 (we had to get it towed)

[@AMT_Ted]

@JlunaPlays not a common issue on them. Head gaskets are also alot cheaper than an entire transmission. I see a lot of people have issues with the dct trans and the clutch in the manual with the forte gt. I felt mine starting to act up around only 18k. Let's also not forget the class action law suit against kia because they couldn't make an engine that didn't blow up.

[@iCATCHpedos]

⁠@@AMT_Tedwas that lawsuit for all Kia engines or just forte gt

[@AMT_Ted]

@kinley9221 it was a lot in the 2010's just look it up.

[@asapcornerstone7851]

I’m say it 😅, still gap him in my Honda 😂

[@PetrolJuice]

@@asapcornerstone7851 you probably would! 😂

[@yuolo9979]

Elantra N is 100 times better than the Forte GT... I feel bad for you 😅

[@PetrolJuice]

@@yuolo9979 never said it wasn’t, I love the Elantra N! But the forte GT is great for the money ($8k less MSRP) and everything I need in a car! I have my M3 for weekend fun😉

[@ChristopherHinkle-v2n]

It’s ugly as hell tho! 😂
