My Top 5 Recommended Performance Modifications For Any Veloster Turbo Owner

I'm back and in this video I recommend my top 5 overall performance specific modifications that any Hyundai Veloster Turbo Owner should do first
I could easily talk about these modifications for hours but I tried to keep it simple. If you are interested in modifying your Veloster Turbo these 5 recommendations are a must. I suggest doing more research into each one of these individually before making your final purchases because they can affect in the long run how much power the car will actually make once you get to spend some time on a Dyno

Very helpful video! You should definitely keep making videos on the Veloster, it seems like nobody has been recently and it's cool to see content from fellow VT owners!

[@stacywhitrick5668]

You got me on the #5 recommended item. I am gearing up to do the tune as I have everything done you mentioned, with the addition of the upgraded solenoids, and BOV. Just curious on how difficult it is to switch the fuel line out. Perhaps a video on that?

[@stevethewoodypeterson]

It's super easy tbh. Kdmtuners did an install video for the fuel line. Thanks for watching

So i bought a 16 VT 6Spd that was already modified (I was only told about suspension). It's got MBRP Exhaust (but i don't know which one), muffler delete, i put the injen full Cold air intake system but i might switch to the short ram version but talking out the last pipe, it's got suspension CXRacing Coilovers and probably a few other things like blow off valve upgrades and a tune. Only real thing I've done was add some catch cans, the intake and a new fuel pump when mine failed. My big question is how can i find out if it's been tuned? It runs great, not even at 100k miles yet and i brought it into a Hyundai dealership but they couldn't tell me if it was tuned with a buyer's inspection.

[@Jointfitnesllc]

I also notice you have the FMIC I was looking at with the blue piping and possibly swapped out the coolant pipes which I was also looking at. If I did the fuel line, would I need to tune it right after to make sure it's giving the correct amount of fuel? And last question, what about a boost controller? I've been looking at the eStreet boost gauge/controller

Hey nice build is that the original bumper ?

[@stevethewoodypeterson]

Original bumper yes but i modified grill

[@kevinwells6865]

Dude i need to collab with you. I just got a 2015 veloster turbo recently and want to do everything to it, in time of course

[@stevethewoodypeterson]

Find me on IG and shoot me a message.

[@hypebeastbrownie2313]

I just got a 2016 Veloster turbo and want to go about building it any tips and tricks?

[@stevethewoodypeterson]

@@hypebeastbrownie2313 I would start with the items I talked about in this video. Intake, exhaust, spark plugs, and a tune. These items get the ball rolling and usually fulfill most people's wants and needs. If you are looking to fully build for performance you will need these supplemental parts anyway so why not start there. Once you get the basic bolt ons installed you can go for more power with a nice stuffed turbo, a juicier tune, and a few other performance parts

[@hypebeastbrownie2313]

Where did you get those headlights?

[@stevethewoodypeterson]

@@hypebeastbrownie2313 I built the headlights myself. Custom retrofitted duel projectors and swapped out other parts inside

[@michellebell9385]

If you had a #6 what would it be and why?

[@stevethewoodypeterson]

I mentioned the downpipe sorta while I was talking about the catback exhaust. I would say the downpipe would be my 6th recommendation for sure. It completes the exhaust system and really allows the maximum benefits of the other airflow increasing bolt on parts

[@Devinfrbs]

So the sputter on high throttle is fuel cut? Noted. Thank you. I'm dealing with that now.

[@stevethewoodypeterson]

Not necessarily but it could very much be related! I recommend doing some controlled testing so go do a few pulls in the car while monitoring fuel pressure and if you see that the fuel pressure dips down under heavy load acceleration then yes most likely fuel cut

[@Devinfrbs]

@@stevethewoodypeterson - During a pull fuel rail pressure stays between 146 and 151, however, the short term fuel trim begins rising all the way from 0 to -14.1 the whole time it is surging, lambda goes down to 11before coming back to 14.7 after I let off throttle. I'm stumped.

[@stevethewoodypeterson]

​@@DevinfrbsI think you should try the fuel line upgrade and see if that fixes your issue. To me it sounds like you are having a fuel delivery/supply issue

[@Devinfrbs]

@@stevethewoodypeterson - A catted downpipe (pierce), O2 sensor, KDMTuner Fuel line, all on the way.

[@mikey08857]

@@Devinfrbs Replace the HPFP. I replaced both and install a DW fuel low pressure pump.

Are those trophy's in the back? If so what for?

[@stevethewoodypeterson]

Yes, those are all trophies. They are all for showing my veloster for the past 10 years. They are all 1st place Best KDM awards and 2 best in show awards from all over the Midwest. Pretty much every direction of Chicago within a 10hr drive.

Is yours the manual ?

Dont Buy shit From Socal Garage. I spent $1600 and they never sent it. They will steal your money

[@stevethewoodypeterson]

Sounds like you should take that up with them. They've been around for a better part of a decade and there are very few instances where I have ever heard of them having issues. I recommend reaching out to Greg the owner with your order information.

[@mikey08857]

@@stevethewoodypeterson I did I emailed them many of times. They told me their provider went out of business and tried to refund but couldn't because they took to long to do it. I told them to send a hood or anything they can get. They been ignoring me since. I ordered in November of last year. And other velo owners are saying they get damaged products from them

[@mikey08857]

@@stevethewoodypeterson just don't buy from them Pierce Motorsports is good for performance stuff. The body I brought is now on eBay for the same price I paid to socal garage
