[@billgere5293]

@@christianservin7635 I wouldn’t, a few tweaks to that stinger and you have a rocket !! By just changing the factory exhaust to a good high performance system makes a world of difference. Then add dual cold air intakes and you have yourself a 4 second car trust me my 2018 stinger gt2 awd runs 12.3-12.0 on the track all day long and that’s without my added tune which gets me to around 11.8. The Elentra N is already pretty tweaked from the factory so your not going to be able to do much more to it. Probably add a cold air intake but I but there isn’t much mapping out of that engine computer that will make much of a difference. Good luck

Why have you stopped doing multiple races from a dig and a roll? Lately I have noticed that one car may have messed up or had a bad go, and you just end with that run. Why not go back to the multiple runs from a dig and from a roll to get a better net result? Either way, just goes to show that the EN is an impressive car. With that said, I would never buy an EN for what many are actually paying for them, which is $38k-$40k with Mark ups.

I am a Hyundai fan but it’s nice to see more vids of Hyundai cars going agaisnt it’s sister company (Kia) hopefully we can see one with all three racing (Hyundai/Kia/genesis)

[@ncarsunited1190]

Great comparison race. Like some say different classes of cars but that's what makes it even more entertaining. And the N definitely has the ability to punch above it's weight class. Great handling and impressive power for 33k!

[@PsychicMedium4747]

Wow the Elantra is incredible

[@advancedsuperpaper1947]

Sometimes I feel like people in the car community are toxic… Drivers make errors that is a fact, no need to hate on someone just because the result didn’t satisfy you. Everyone begging for better drivers then they should donate to the channel and fund professional drivers to do the races lmao. Or better yet, go make the video yourself lmao 🤣 Even though the EN is close I prefer the Stinger is just a better daily in every way.

[@SamCarLegion]

We do multiple runs for a reason. F1 drivers make mistakes lol.

[@Momospeare]

@@SamCarLegion yup, I personally thought the second roll was solid

[@SamCarLegion]

@@Momospeare the problem is that people don’t understand “human error factor” - unfortunately we don’t have robots driving these cars lol

[@jakerandall6960]

Love your videos! Can I ask if these were the best runs? When you are in the stinger are you just letting it shift itself? The power falls off extremely hard if you do that.

[@SamCarLegion]

@@jakerandall6960 if you don’t see any text that says manual mode, means auto mode was engaged

Rwd g70 walks the en in a roll but damn i didnt think 200+ pounds was such a huge difference

[@ginyuforx9632]

It's the driver of Stinger. He probably had Corolla before Stinger. His reaction time is too slow. I know few Stinger drivers. They never use launch control. They never launch hard. They always drive in "eco" mode. I'm sure a good driver in Stinger would've absolutely beat EN for sure. I beat EN with my G70 3.3T.

[@jaydenmackenzie9670]

Yess!! Just what I wanted!!!

[@sooperdan]

I would still like to see the stinger gt line with the new 2.5t go up against a few different cars, it's a big performance upgrade from the old 2.0t

[@khronin]

I had a 3.3TT stinger and I was walking newer V8 american muscle cars at the track--4.2 to 60 and a 12.7 in the 1/4 mile.I also just got a Kona N and while fast--it does not have the mustard of the 3.3TT stinger.

[@bronxtaskforce01]

Love to see the IS350 RWD vs the Hyundai Veloster N. Hope you guys create that video. I have to admit, the Elantra sounds sweet

[@JudgeFXX]

elantra is impressive, i would still get the stinger for its tuning potential

[@kranichgyan4392]

The Elantra N can also be tuned

[@JudgeFXX]

@@kranichgyan4392 yeah. the stingers potential is a lot greater, 2 turbos and a v6, a simple piggy back tune on pump gas adds a lot more hp/tq compared to the elantra

[@thisguyfromyoutubesaid1537]

I bought a draggy for like 100 dollars and there really accurate to get 0 to 60 and quarter mile times.

[@michaelwilburn1001]

That's amazing. And the Elantra is a hop skip and a jump away from a tune that can push it over 330 whp

[@EgguEd51]

330whp sounds nice but with Front wheel drive and no lsd 😬 recipe for disaster off the line

I've drivin my stinger for 30k miles, 180 miles a day and I know her well enough. I like driving manual in my custom mode which is Sport steering, sport trans., comfort susp.

[@MrL3M0NKU5H]

Crazy cause i live in Hawaii and the EN is being sold here for 33k which made my mouth drop. I def will be moving myself into the 2022 EN hands down. Bye bye honda was fun driving ya.

[@closg9309]

After so much hyping up of the Elantra N , I took it for a test drive at my local dealer when they finally had one in stock. It was quick for a 4banger and the DCT is NICE , car sounded great but it wasn’t as fast as my G70 3.3t RWD. If I was shopping for a WRX, GTI, Si, which I’ve owned and test drove , def go with a N compared to other 4 cylinder cars. I’d even take it over A4, 330i, C300 4 cylinder variants but not any of the V6/i6 turbo cars.

[@KuyaArbee]

at the end of the day it's an Elantra... your G70 is the overall better car.

[@keithjay4944]

Stinger's driver could've done better on the roll lol these cars are heavy! If you just floor it's not going anywhere lol Need to be on the right gear and build boost. Either way N is a beast!

yep on a roll, need it on gear 2

@@SSH939 yeah there's video on KZbin, I think his name is 'Danny In Stinger', he explained the whole thing, and tried that once on comfort mode, it was day and night difference lol, (I don't use sport mode 😂)

Yeah, once you know how to build proper boost on the stinger. There is no match. It takes abit of practice to dial it in but man, huge difference.

@@SSH939 if it’s tuned. Not stock lol, won’t make a difference. These two are evenly matched however you line them up
