Turbo 98 Hyundai Accent - finally complete after a year - FOR SALE
 

So excited to finally have this on the road. Here's the basics on the setup thus far.

Hyundai S-Coupe manifold and turbo(Garrett T15)
Custom downpipe and exhaust(no cat)
Hyundai 2.0L Engine Injectors, MAF, and TB(redrilled to fit 1.5)
TurboXS BOV
1:1 Fuel Pressure Regulator
E-Manage Blue

Need to install the boost gauge before I know how much boost I'm on, I believe the wastegate on this turbo is set somewhere around 5lbs. Also unsure on HP numbers, I need to get it dynoed after this weekend's autocross. Eventuelly I'll be running an intercooler on it as well, the scoupe was non-intercooled stock so I'm not too worried yet.

Wow dude pretty cool, how's she runnin?

that oil return makes baby jesus cry. Looks good otherwise

Re: Turbo 97 Hyundai Accent - finally complete after a year
 

it runs great! idles fine, no check engine light...almost like there's no turbo there(until it spools that is)

The metal line you see is the oil feed, the oil return is in the bottom of the turbo...you can't see it in these pictures...but it comes right out the bottom to a rubber line and back into the pan at a nice 45 degree angle.

Last time I saw a Hyundai with balls - it was given a complete B16A2 swap/conversion... :1

Looks like it will help move that POS to the point of being fun to drive. :P

The car was already fun to drive - It's my autocross car so with full coilovers, the rear sway bar, bushings...and A compound hoosiers it holds it's own pretty well in my class, now with the boost I'll be in a higher classing but should still hold it's own pretty well.

The goal of the car was not to be super fast, I needed more torque out of the corners of tight auto-x courses and downshifting to first isn't always convienent. With this setup I should be able to stop on it at low RPM's in second gear and with the size of the turbo being what it is, it should spool quickly and suit the need.

I'll post some pictures of the whole car in a little bit.

Here's just a couple - I'll post a couple others later on of me running the hoosiers :6

Neat. I like to see uniqe stuff like this. I'm just surprised there's no drama in this thread yet.

What the hell is a T15? It must make a T25 look huge.

Re: Turbo 97 Hyundai Accent - finally complete after a year
 

Wow nice man... How stiff are your rear springs? Id imagine you'd need at least 450lb/inch rear springs to really help get rid of understeer (my 85 sedan is running 350s and it prolly needs more, or maybe I should just slow down more in the slow turns)

If its strictly an autox car I guess a T15 will work but maybe later on you could step it up to a T25 to go faster in the straights? I'd think a T25 would still spool relatively quick on a 2.0L.. Should run cooler too
