Which Powerflex bushings should you buy for your Elantra N?

[@dougie041991]

Wheel spin over wheel hop for FWD any day! But great to see you back!!

[@flcl_tx]

Waiting on a comparison video, and it confirms what I thought. Glad to see you back on the scene🙏📿

[@damienfrizzell9394]

this is no comparison . he used different bushing .black vs purple.

[@anthonybeckman]

I drive a Forte GT and still enjoy watching your channel. Much respect on being a great representative of the KDM community.

[@N-Krazy1976]

Good to see you back Man! Although I can see the mount for sure helped the wheel hop I would not be able to get over the vibrations! I have the purple bushings on the front of the mount and I also have the rear mount where the one bolt goes in I just need to press it out and press the new Powerflex one in and that should do the trick👍

[@wazeone1978]

Great job ✊🏾💯 easy install !!

[@arthurmroyce]

I used the "yellow" Powerflex street bushing on the lower stock dog bone and the upper engine mount. I feel that the bushings should be matched so you are not transferring torque from one place to another. These work fine for me to reduce wheel hop and a nice benefit is vastly improved clutch engagement. I have not noticed any increase in NVM. My Veloster N is a daily driver so I like things smooth and quiet...as much as possible. I am pretty sure the "purple" performance bushings would also be a good choice based on forum posts. These were also one of my first mods. Very cheap and effective.

god i need that blow off valve for my N! Beautiful car my boy

[@RobTheNthusiast]

Awesome video bro! I have the SXTH lower motor mount and I can say on the street it doesn’t help me much in my KN, but that’s mainly because of road conditions. On a prepped drag strip, this is where the stiffer mount is a plus. I consistent hook perfectly and I’m usually able to do 4.5-4.9 0-60, granted I am JB4 tuned but even works I was getting 4.8-5.1 0-60 at the drag strip

[@damienfrizzell9394]

i would not be pushing my car with a jb4 at a track , is it safe?

[@RobTheNthusiast]

@@damienfrizzell9394 completely safe, no different than a stinger or Audi running it on the track. You just have to know the limits of your car’s components.

[@JohnnyFnG84]

Get bushings, squash wheel hop, save $$ - got it 👌🏼

[@LeftenantMalachi]

I've had both Brandon, and as much as I LOVE the full mount (SXTH element) the NVH is just too much, especially with my family in the car. I have all three powerflex bushings (tranny, front and rear bushings) and although it helps the wheel hop, it doesn't get rid of it. Good video!

[@klasseact6663]

I as well and now that I'm Stage 1+, it's only going to be worse...plus I've got KN tires & wheels, so narrower tire and less quality tire. That said, once the KN tires are worn out, the EN tires go back on👍👍

[@klasseact6663]

Thank you for posting this video. It's something I'm gonna have to probably look into. Come Spring!

[@burblen7818]

Just out of curiosity, how long did you have the SXTH mount installed for? I hear after ~500 or so of break in miles, the NVH goes down drastically

[@LeftenantMalachi]

@@burblen7818 I had it for several thousand miles, the NVH did not go down at all, despite what some people state in the review of the item. You get used to it to a degree, but it's still too harsh, especially for a daily driver IMO.

[@LeftenantMalachi]

@@klasseact6663 That's exactly why I am not going Stage 1 or doing a tune. More power means more wheel hop, and ultimately less mileage. My car has to be a practical daily driver. I do have the bushings, BOV, intake, and a Stillin rear sway bar that's coming today!

[@volans25]

That makes sense. You have steel versus aluminum. It might be a tad more rigid, but probably not noticeable when you consider that the bushings will flex a bit. I think under most load cases, you are feeling how the bushings perform.

[@danielblouin4176]

Great review!

[@LongRaider996]

I bought a black series ( track one ) mtf so Vibrate -- not recommended for daily drivers 😂😂 and I did 4.7s 0-60.

[@ENtense]

Please share your launch settings! I never use NGS on launches as well.

[@LongRaider996]

@@ENtense oh, I got NGS! 2700rpm! Less than half of the gas tank capacity. Put NGS in 2nd gear. Race lower mount as you Black series upper Black transmission mount insert Thank you cause your channel is the reason for me to buy EN👍👍🇺🇸👍! Keep going man and stay safe and fun.

When are you getting a tune?

[@rickybaez2970]

So it makes more vibration and noise ?

[@chesdachea4379]

What kind of tools would I typically need for this install?

[@VitalJoe]

In your 0-60 tests don’t you also have intercooler installed? Maybe it’s resulting in some turbo lag?

[@VitalJoe]

Bear in mind all the full mount in this video is the black race version.. the purple version might be more tolerable day to day, comparable to bushings only swap

[@jferg7101]

Hey I'm reaching out to you because my 2022 Elantra N Oil feed line to the turbo is leaking. I was curious have you or anybody you know suffered the same leak?

[@tylerwatt12]

Haven't seen a video in a while. Hope you're doing well!

[@GenXisT]

What do you think about doing the yellow one for a person who doesn't race, at all, and just sorta gets on the gas every once in a while? I've never had any wheel hop because I never slam on the gas. The car has also never been driven on wet roads, and probably never will. Not too much rain here in AZ as it is. Definitely don't want perma-vibrations tho.

[@owenshen36]

I'd put in the purple on the lower engine mount if you want to reduce the wheel hop to a sizable degree - there's a small bump in vibration but not really noise, and it's definitely not as pronounced as having the full mount replacements such as the SXTH or the new powerflex one(those are probably like 3-4x just the purple bushing). If you really don't care too much about having a ton of wheelhop reduction and want absolute max comfort, then do the yellow, but I'd personally just get the purple. My upper engine mount which is yellow actually ripped from driving since I think it's a bit too soft (I have purple lower engine, and purple side transmission bushing)

[@grahamtripp58]

Does it have to be torqued? Is it gonna make a difference cause I didn’t torque mine

[@ChrisGallione]

Told ya. Major vibration, but boy…. No hop and you just goooooo

[@rafaryfc]

Maybe with a new set of 18” wheels with 240/40 tires the car will fill better 😂, at least on the VN the stock 19” wheels feel pretty heavy on the road and the bad roads around here dont help either.

[@arthurmroyce]

I have an alternate 18" set for my VN with Pilot Sports on them. I guess big rims look good, but the smaller ones perform every bit as well if not better.

In my eyes, it’s a waste of money. The idle and low speed vibration sucks.
