4b11t going into new RWD Hyundai coupe

[Kevin 1G Drummer]

Yeah, I read somewhere that they're using 2.9bar map sensors.

So any solid word on when these will be at dealerships?

[Kevin 1G Drummer]

I keep hearing late Feb early March, but no solid date yet. They're sitting in the ports on the west coast waiting to get shipped out though.

I bet they are waiting for the website to be finalized with all the options and stuff.

Video footage of the thing, and yea, I guess the commercial's gonna be in the superbowl.

Please note the camera car at 2:10, gotta have something nice and fast to stay in front of this thing ;)

I saw that video yesterday. I'm getting kinda pumped! One more thing, the 4cyl car is supposed to get around 30mpg stock!

Found some pics of the car with the GT30, and PROSS tuning has already made a tubular manifold for it. The GT30 is top mounted, but it looks like there'll be plenty of room for those that want to go bigger. The PROSS manifold puts the turbo down in the stock location.

man thats sexy.

I think I'd almost want to go with a top-mount...longitudinal motors were meant to have a turbo sitting right next to the valve cover, and a big, sexy SMIM on the other side :)

It may be shiny, but the design is far from optimal. It is a 4-2-1 design, they put 2 runners together before it gets to the turbo, which you may not have noticed. Also the angles where that happens are poor, as is the entry angle for the bottom pipe going in to the turbo. Packaging looks tight so I am sure they had to make some concessions, but they could have made the angles better at least. As we have seen with turbo stuff though, it will probably work nearly as good as a perfectly designed one.
