It's the same engine, it's just not turbo. So basically you would just build this engine to handle boost and then turbo it, cause you can't just simply swap the engines.

Depends on how much boost you want to add. Generally speaking, most engines can handle 5-6lbs of boost "safely" without any modifictions. But if you go higher than that, then you will want forged internals, which means replacing the rods and pistons at a minimum. Depending on the strength of the engine, you may need to fortify other things as well- best to ask someone who specializes in those engines. There is a shop in Texas that builds the Velosters, but I can't remember the name of them.

Do you think the crank pulley would have been easier to torque down if the lower engine mounts were stiffer? I noticed a lot of vibration on the CAI demo and I would imagine the factory mounts are ultra soft to reduce noise transfer.

@@andresmadrid3306 Be careful slam shifting on the 1-2 shift. My syncro is already giving me shit and I only have 34,000 miles on it. For the first 25,000 miles (bought it new) I could slam shift it no problem. After that, it grinds now if I do it too fast. They aren't sports cars, so Kia didn't put very good syncros in them because 99.9% of people won't hotrod them like I do. If I ever turbo it I'll probably end up putting a Veloster turbo tranny in it unless they are the same, in which case I will just build mine. The engines are the same except the non turbo one isn't forged to handle boost, and has higher compression, because it isn't boosted. The wiring is completely different though because it's Hyundai and not Kia, so unfortunately it doesn't just simply swap over.

What do you think about new NGK ruthenium spark plugs on the rio? They only have a PSPE style for rio, no DFE as of yet, called them they said it will work no issues, what do you think are they just some new marketing strategy or actual quality over iridium? Better spark, gas mileage? Enjoying your rio upgrade videos thank you for sharing
@BuckeyeBallistics
4 жыл бұрын
I was unaware of these until reading your comment. From my 30 minutes of research, seems they are the newest greatest thing since iridium came out. Seems the main difference when compared to iridium is less corrosion on the electrode, which basically equates to stronger spark for longer, and longer life. But iridium already lasts so much longer and is so much stronger than regular plugs, do you really need more? I would say probably won't notice a difference but why not try for a few extra bucks? Or save $10-12 and conclude that iridium is good enough. I'll probably try them though, next plug change I do. Thanks for introducing me to the world of ruthenium lol. As much car stuff as I watch, I can't believe I haven't seen an ad for these yet...

They are fairly new on the market, and there's no solid reviews that I could find for long term testing. I found them when searching for parts on rockauto. The PSPE is preferred for turbo applications but NGK confirmed on the phone no harm on regular engines. Not sure why the ground electrode is platinum and not iridium being the stronger metal, I'm no car expert. I will likely give them a try on my auto🥱 15 rio 70k miles, silver/black cloth very clean salvage (nothing major) that i bought for a few grand, currently on steelies with some minor rust spot patterns no hubcaps, about a year and half owner now, reliable basic car that I would like some minor upgrades as you have shown.

Pulleys are still holding up well, no issues. It accelerates a little better but it's harder to notice because pulleys add power throughout the entire rev range instead of just top end like intake and exhaust mods. I keep meaning to post an acceleration video now that I have the intake and pulley on there but I keep forgetting. It's quite a bit quicker with just those 2 mods than when it was completely stock.

Only power mods are the cold air intake and the pulleys. I did take the muffler off but I put it back on. Muffler is probably only 1 or 2 hp, because the real restriction in the exhaust is the secondary cat. The intake was an 8hp gain if I remember correctly; you would have to watch the install video for the number. Pulleys were 4hp. The car has 138hp from the factory. So with the intake and pulleys, I guess you could call that 150hp if you want.

Speaking from doing this with a Toyota echo, it lets you spin up the engine faster, so it feels peppier. It can't change top speed / low rev acceleration. A lighter flywheel helps too, but that's a bigger, more expensive job. I found the intake/exhaust upgrade less satisfying. Interestingly a homemade pvc pipe intake had about the same effect as the AEM one. I enjoy my Kia the way it is. Only mod is a trailer hitch. People are shocked at what I pull with it. Best bang for my buck for acceleration was to buy a motorbike. The Rio is a really underestimated car. Good to see someone doing something with it. Any new 1/4 mile times?
