$500 Burnin a hole in my pocket

[03GT]

So, if you had $500 to burn on upgrades for your XD what would you get?

Brake Upgrade?
Catback?
Header?
Nitrous?
Shorty Shifter + ?
Other?

[Munky]

It depends on what you already have done, and what your current plans for the car are.

If you want little upgrades that make a big difference, I would say exhaust and a short throw.

If you plan on tracking/auto-x'ing your car, I would say tires and brake upgrade.

[hyunelan2]

$500 = about 9 tanks of gas :)

I don't think brakes are necessary to upgrade, unless you need new brakes - then you might as well upgrade while replacing them.

Wheels/tires? You probably won't get it done with $500, but it's a start.

[Silentwolf]

$360 for catback from EF
Leaves $140 to spend on a short shifter

TWM is having a sale on their shifters, $109.95 until the end of may.

http://www.elantraxd.com/forums/showthread.php?t=29623

That would leave about 30 bucks or so to throw in the gas tank to try out the new mods. ;)

[03GT]

Tires and wheels already done.
19mm swaybar + metal endlinks already done.
AR Lowering springs done.
Tibby struts done.
CAI done.


EF has the cat back "on sale" (preorder) right now for $305 including shipping. Shorty shifters go from $40-100-ish depending on if you get brand name or generic ebay brand. There's a nitrous kit (sniper) on ebay for 350ish for a 35 to 70 shot with a 10lb bottle.

Plans? I just wanna have fun with it here and there with some extra zip because, well, the factory HP is pretty sad. LOL. I'm thinin about scrounging up a few more bucks and going with the catback and the nitrous. Since it seems a "plug n play" supercharger is just wishful thinking and $$. I don't have the time or the know how to fart around with going turbo. Although there is a turbo kit on ebay for $600. (minus cooler, install, tweaking etc etc..)

[Munky]

Nitrous would work, just make sure you do your research first.

[lovemylantra]

dude forget about the nitrous, its a waste of money especially if your talking about getting a catback installed ... save nitrous for last this isnt the fast and the furious lol

Actually nitrous is the biggest power adder you can get for any amount of money.

[lovemylantra]

im not one to disagree with that statement ... but shouldnt there be other things youd need to worry about with nitrous ... like a better brake kit etc ... id install the basics first then maybe go for something like that ... im sure you cant just slap a nitrous bottle anyway in the car and go ... theres gotta be more elements to come into play with that <--------- just my opinion

I already have a planned brake upgrade (better rotors/pads) when the current ones need to be replaced. But since the car has less than 60k miles on it, it might be a while.

Nitrous is an ever lasting BILL that always needs MORE AND MORE MONEY to be worth any sort of function. Slapping Nitrous on an engine is a pussy way of getting more power especially if you don't have all the modifications done to allow the engine to breath easier.

Your engine will make MORE power with nitous if you open up the exhaust first. Why fill the chambers up with combustable air if you have a restrictive exhaust system which wont allow all the extra exhaust to be expelled?

Supercharger - not available unless you want to try your luck with alpine.
Turbo - At least $1200 and god knows how many tweaks, nightmares, etc.

I agree, that with Nitrous it is just like having another gas tank to feed. But what other options are available for getting +50hp?

A cat back will get roughly +15hp. Intake spacer +5hp, CAI +5hp. So +25ish hp for under $500. Then add nitrous for another $400 and you're running an additional 75hp for under $1000 and less than a weekend to install and an easy install at that.

What's the breakdown on a turbo?

Your forgeting about tuning which most due.

You can get rid of the ECU and wire up a Megasquirt for about $400. Tweak the ignition timing and fuel. Different Cams, intake and head porting, along with a taper ported TB.

I don't care what you say, it will always be the most power for the money. And you know it.

For the money? How about when you have filled the bottle enough times to where the money you have spent filling the bottle could have bought and paid for other upgrades? BTW, thats WISHFULL THINKING anyways since by that time, you will need to rebuild your motor. Yes Nitrous gives you the most power right off the plate but to suggest someone into doing that FIRST before ANYTHING else is rediculous. So they spend hundreds to buy and install the nitrous kit. Use it once and run out. ****, I spent 400-800 for a nitrous kit and I have to refill my power?

I quoted two area in your post. Nitrous WILL NEVER BE THE CHEAPEST! Opps I popped my motor! Damn I have to fill my nitrous bottle!

I agree that exhaust + nitrous would be a start

Tuned Exhaust plus intake porting is a good start as well. Nitrous is the LAST thing ANYONE should ever do.

[KeWLKaT]

Sorry rotaman, but there are PLENTY of people here who have run nitrous but have never "popped" their motor. Out of about 25 people I've heard who ran nitrous on their elantras, there was only one failure, and that was maybe attributable to misuse.

Still, for 400$ you will have 50 more horsepower than the guy next to you.

If one's goal is to have fun from time to time (rarely), nitrous is the way to go.

[2003GT]

I have heard some pretty good horror story with Nitrous. Some state that unless your WOT it will destroy your motor. Also I heard it burns up the valves that much faster. BOB

The only time the nitrous hits the engine is when you are WOT (unless you install it wrong). So how could it destroy your motor if you're never WOT? The logic there is wrong.

The valves on the other hand..... could be, dunno.


I'm gettin the cat back kit for sure. The other stuff is just gum flapping for now.

[2003GT]

Ya NOS is useless unless you are at WOT and how often on the street are you like that. Not to mention that its illegal to have on the road. Buy the catback and send the rest to me. :) BOB

[KeWLKaT]

Over here it's not illegal. If it is indeed illegal in your area, then I would advise to stay away from it.

[RotaMan99]

NOS = Nitrous Oxide System. This is a company and not Nitrous Oxide. Don't ever say "im putting NOS in my car" because that is incorrect term to use.

Burning valves are due to running to lean when using nitrous. This is usually due to running a dry shot. Could also happen on a wet shot if its not tuned correctly.

KewlKat, you will not get the most power out of your nitrous shot when you engine is still restricted. Why can't you understand that? Spending the money on nitrous but getting just over half the performance?

[03GT]

Over here it's not illegal. If it is indeed illegal in your area, then I would advise to stay away from it.

Yeah, that I don't know. It could be like other states, where it's legal to have but you'd better not have the tank in the car unless you're on the track.

Ya thats fine but my post is more directed toward people refering NOS to Nitrous Oxide when NOS is a company and not the substance

[KeWLKaT]

KewlKat, you will not get the most power out of your nitrous shot when you engine is still restricted. Why can't you understand that? Spending the money on nitrous but getting just over half the performance?

I understand it even more than you think. You can get more out of your nitrous with the supporting mods, but nitrous alone still remains the best bang for the buck.

It's just like adding a turbocharger. You can make more power with a 3'' exhaust, but it doesn't mean that you don't make any with a regular EF catback, you know what I mean?

[03GT]

NOS = Nitrous Oxide System. This is a company and not Nitrous Oxide. Don't ever say "im putting NOS in my car" because that is incorrect term to use.

Sure, it's the incorrect term, but everybody knows what people mean when they say it.

Just like when people say "motor" in their car. Motors are electric. Cars (unless electric) have engines not motors.

The term motor is derived from "electric motor", start there. Then think of the difference between the way they work. Converting electrical energy in to mechanical energy vs a chemical reaction to create mechanical energy.

motor in latin: movere (to move)
engine in latin: ingenium (create; beget)

Well sh!t, if we sat around and talked about incompetent morons and the things they do/say we'd be here for the rest of our lives.

Speaking of which, watch those toilet paper commercials (quilted northern?) with the little yellow lab puppy. In one of them, some guy sits on the hood (front of the car) of a karman ghia and jumps off because the hood is hot, and the dog talking even says something to that affect. Uh, the engine is in the back but the advertising folks didn't think of that.

Nah, my autoshop teacher from almost 20 years ago use to harp on us about that. If you wrote motor on any part of your tests that was not refering to an electric motor, you got the question wrong.

Well you can just get it refilled at any tuner shop, or lab. Make sure you don't mix NO2 and N2O, though.

Tuning is so very important when getting power from an engine. Our ECUs need to be replaced with aftermarket onces to get anything worth while from our engines. Megasquirt would be the cheapest way. I just don't know how you would go about the VVT. You may just need to replace the VVT and get it set to one degree.

[KeWLKaT]

I'm sure you could just get rid of the CVVT alltogether and just use a good old normal chain to link both cams (like the non-CVVT models).

But we are getting way off-topic here.

I say get the exhaust, and use the remaining money at the casino.

Then you might get more mods, haha.

[2003GT]

Mega squirt just controls fuel what about Spark. Would MSD be any Beneficial to our cars HP gains? BOB

Erm, the MS is a STANDALONE (controls everything even the fan for your radiator).

Nah. The OP could get a fully built megasquirt for under $400 and be for more ahead than most here on the forum :) Spend the remaining money on wire, connectors, solder, soldering gun, heat shrink tubing, electrical books so he can undestand how to wire it up. Than, I hope he can setup it up right to get the engine started.

I'm sure you could just get rid of the CVVT alltogether and just use a good old normal chain to link both cams (like the non-CVVT models).


Ya probubly. I wonder if MegaSquirt could actually control it. Its all run by open source so the code could always be writen.

True, true, but I don't know if he'd be willing to go through the whole process of learning and experiencing it. It is a bit hard to figure out each sensor.

[moonlite5hadow]

personally if i had $500 suckers floating around in my jeans i would go to one of the local second-hand import dealers and put it down on a 300ZX. either that or invest it in a barrel of gas before prices get jacked up for summer.

but in all seriousness i'd go for an exhaust, some nitrous and a short shifter.

[Deviant]

I believe a motor is not just restricted to electric, it can be spring driven as well. Just as long as it doesn't consume a fuel it is referred to a motor.

[lovemylantra]

[RotaMan99]

What about MSD. You ever think of that probably get better mileage and some more power. BOB

Im interested to see if a MSD CDI would be beneficial to the elantra. Its not on the rotary since the stock ignition is already very strong.

I think you would only gain any HP at the top end of the RPM band where some stock ignition systems start to break up.

but in all seriousness i'd go for an exhaust, some nitrous and a short shifter.

I guess I think different. I like to purchase things that I don't have to refill or run out of. Especially if im spending Hundreds on it. Nitrous should be OUT of this thread.

You are still a fool. Nitrous is plenty safe if the user is intelligent to know how to use it. Dave is over 100k miles on his auto elantra and he ran 10+ bottles through his car. He still daily drives it AND uses it to tow his bike to races. Most of his bottles were with 80 shots. I know fordfasterr used to use nitrous and his car is currently owned by his friend and still driven everyday. There was a member on NT that was running a 125shot on his car and it handled it fine. Step down a degree or two on the plugs, make sure the jets are set up right and you'll be fine. Hell, I have a zex kit in my closet I should put it on my car with 131k on it to show you its safe.

I read the post about the jetting and all that, hence the reason I even considered it. If I were to go with nitrous it'd probably be a 35 or 50 shot no more.

thats a good deal, but i am also selling a bottle blanket, a nos brand bottle warmer, two pressure guages, and i have the fitting to tie into your fuel rail, so that you dont have to tap into the fuel line, but back to topic nitrous oxide is a great power adder, with it on your car you can surprise the heck outta people, i know that i have, its great to be at the track and be next to a motor swapped civic or something along those lines, and just be able to smoke them

Your running on barrowed power... LOL. They will smoke you after you run out because you only have a 2.0L 4cylinder hyundai :thumbsup::hand:

They will smoke you after you run out because you only have a 2.0L 4cylinder hyundai :thumbsup::hand: most Hondas's have less than 2 liters and the only one I would beafraid of losing to would be a F/H/??? 22 swapped accord. (they are fast as **** if done right)

Ummmmmmm Yeah.... I'm gonna have to disagree with you there. I have tracked against 3 Honda's. All 3 consisted of I/H/E and I beat all 3. 1st was a 99 coupe (my buddy Ian is a phenomenal driver) won by less than a hoods length.. 2nd was a 95 coupe (my buddy Tim is a horrible driver) stomped him by like 4 seconds. 3rd was 91 CRX zc swapped (my buddy paul okay driver) just barely won buy like 1 or 2 tenths of a second. No spray involved. Oh and I have an automatic too.... So maybe next weekend we'll race again and I'll get videos.
when the track opens again for this year. I'll take my 2.0l 130hp/tq auto over a 95hp /tq over a Honda any day of the week hands down. I know it's not the fastest thing out there and if I were to spray it I wouldn't be afraid to hurt anything in my motor. These are pretty well put together.

You must not have read what I quoted.

Nothing was protraying toward a stock civic motor. If your going to swap any motor into a car, than your going to do some other upgrades as well.

Regaurdless if our engines are 2L or not, these cars are not very quick stock and a modded swapped motor in a civic would put these little hyundais away.

Sorry to burst your bubble.

ofcourse maybe if you did some other upgrades to our engines you may have a chance but then you wouldn't need nitrous now would you? With nitrous you will never know how quick your car REALLY is.

[Cypher]

A win is a win regardless of how its done, besides if you have nitrous on your car and you win a race with nitrous then thats how quick your car is.

My dad keeps telling me to stop wasting money on this car because its an Economy car and that GT stands for Grand Touring not the same as the Mustang GT :). Its true these are commuter cars not hot rods. BOB

Thats the oldest excuse in the book. Any car can be made into something worthwhile. That something is up to the owner and what he/she is willing to do.

[lovemylantra]

couldnt have put it any better ... if they werent meant to be modded why are there so many aftermarket parts for every in an out of the car lol ... just cause your dad said so doesnt make it right

I know but I am getting tint done and will probably get exhaust and side markers when I am away at college. He still owns the car and I have a bout 800 left in payments so he can still tell me what to do. BOB

Ok well the TWM is in, the Catback is on order and I've got $70 of my budget left over. I was thinking a new shifter knob since the "finish" is all worn off of mine. So...

Anybody want to comment on their knob? (haha!!)

I like the Skunk2 because the color won't be an obvious "look at me, steal my sh!t" kind of thing. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SKUNK2-WEIGHTED-SHIFT-KNOB-NEW-CIVIC-INTEGRA-HONDA_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trkparmsZalgoQ3dDLS1Q26it sQ3dKQ26ituQ3dMBMSQ252BSSQ252BFSQ252BUCKQ26otnQ3d1 5Q26poQ3dOp2Q26psQ3d26QQ_trksidZp3907Q2em87QQcateg oryZ0QQitemZ270244025202

I like the Blox for the extra 50 grams of weight over the skunk2 but hate the color. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=230259547585&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=013 (so yeah, I'd probably paint it satin black)

Love the price of this one: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=360059664052&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=023 but I don't think it's weighted, and it's probably not really titanium. Still waiting to hear back from the vendor about that.
