Hi all, im Adam - I got introduced to ptitspeed last night at the world of wheels show and I got to talk w/ darkstar and see some of the rides on show - I was impressed :bigok:

Anyway this is me:  
Im 17 and I drive a 2004 Hyundai Tiburon GT-V6

Its still getting broken in - so no mods (seatbelt pads and floor mats 😃 ) I’m going to be ordering a GReddy EVO2 exhaust at the end of the month though and a CAI soon following ❌

My last car had a lot more done to it htough, it was a 1976 Porsche 912E w/:  
New power window motors  
New soundsystem:  
MTX 421D Thunder AMP  
ALPINE Head unit  
10" AUDIOBAHN Sub [custom made box]  
2x 6.5" ALPINE speakers  
2x 6.5" INFINITY speakers  
TSUNAMI Power Pumper Capaciter  
TSUNAMI Wiring / Rockford Fosgate Wiring  
Custom painted brake calipers  
Replaced the tires  
SACHS HP Clutch  
Fuel Injection system replaced with Weber Carbs

The carb conversion didnt go over well so the car had to be put away until summer when we have the time and patience to work on it ☹

Pics of the rides are available here:

thanks for the welcome everyone!!

If you guys got any questions on porsche stuff I can probably help out a lot more with that then anythi else I know about 😛

My dad is a purist - so I consider myself kind of a wierd tuner type since I have roots in these old old cars (first car was a 78 beetle cab, no joke) and have such an affinity towards the new asian coupes (and 4 doors in the case of the EVO and STi :P)

I’m still learning but I hope that I can get my act together quick enough to get some work done on my ride before summertime.

My first question is:  
I want to get a GReddy EVO2 Exhaust, the piping is 60-70mm  
That should be enough for a s/c right? But for more boost I need a bigger exhaust right? If someone could just clear this up I’d really appreciate it, I’ve gotten mixed answers 😛

Thanks a lot guys, look forward to talking more on the forums 😃

Welcome

my buddy used to have one of those GTs, it was a pig, but that CAI sounds pretty different compaired to any other car ive heard with one on it… still sweet loooking cars… handle pretty fucking well for a 3000lb car, over dampened in my opinion,some stiff springs would do that chassis well.

Ever heard of Shark Tuning? or something along those lines? there a Tibby/Hyun tuner… check em out, make some cool shit.
