2004 Hyundai Tiburon Turbo

The car is solid, in great shape, and low miles. The motor runs great. No check engine light or stored codes. It has some loose ends that I lost interest in finishing, but nothing to keep you from driving and enjoying the car. The stock motor was turbocharged 3 years ago with a Garrett T25. The build includes a OBX-R turbo manifold, ARK single cat delete exit exhaust, HKS blow off valve, Hyundai 290cc injectors to support 5psi of boost, front mount intercooler with aluminum charge pipes, ACT 6 puck clutch, eBay short throw shifter, Autometer oil pressure, boost, volts gauges in A-pillar pod, AEM UEGO wide band mounted in dash, HKS turbo timer, and AEM Fuel Ignition Controller (not installed but will include with sale). The harness needs to be wired in and the car can then be taken to a certified AEM tuning shop. I do have a non turbo header for the car if a turbo motor is not for you. The build is capable of much more than it currently is running but it is extremely reliable in its current state. The car is currently running off the factory ECU but has compensated for boost via larger injectors so no issues there. A/C was deleted out of the car to relocate the alternator away from the turbo as part of the turbo build. There is no radio in the car currently, but all the connections and mount are there to install a double DIN stock or aftermarket radio. No cruise control either. Some of the interior panels have been painted blue. OTTO-R seats have been installed, non-slider, but the factory seats will be included with the vehicle. Suspension has been modified with Drop Zone lowering springs and Koni adjustable struts, pretty stiff ride but not back breaking. Konig 18x8 wheels with Nankang NS-II tires 60% tread. The car does need an alignment and tires balanced. The headlights are shot. They became very hazed a few years back and were slightly tinted, but now just need to be replaced with new ones. The back seats have been removed and refinished to support a JL Audio sub box (audio components not included in sale). Aftermarket tail lights are also tinted but in great shape and never been bothered by law enforcement.The car is tinted 15% all the way around. Probably forgetting a lot of other stuff. I can send more pictures if needed. The car has never been a daily driver for me, rather a toy to screw around with so if you're not mechanically inclined or want a little bit of a project, this car is not for you.

The car is as-is. I'm the second owner of the car so everything listed above is everything I know about it. I'm listing the car for sale because I don't really drive it much anymore and could spend the money on something else. To be clear, I don't need to sell the car so low ball offers won't be entertained.

Top torque-to-weight ratios under $100k, $50k and $25k

Tue, 07 Oct 2014

Horsepower may steal a lot of headlines, but the always-more-complex torque figure is often a critical one for both the workingman and the motoring playboy. The measure of rotational force represents the twist that can liquefy one's tires or haul one's horse trailer. Good stuff.
It follows then, that as with the horsepower-to-weight list that we assembled for you a few months ago, a list of cars that offer the most pound-feet with the fewest pounds to carry, is an interesting one to break down. Sure, there's a big difference in how the torque is applied from a turbocharged six-cylinder in a Swedish luxury sedan and a massive heavy-duty truck's turbo-diesel. But being the car/stat geeks that we are, we think it's kinda neat that those two vehicles rank near each other where torque and weight intersect.
As with the horsepower list, we've given you figures as pounds per every one pound-foot. Again broken down into broad price categories, we've got a mixed bag of 2014 and 2015 models here, too. Every effort has been made to select the most up-to-date prices and specs, and we've also to omitted some '14 cars that won't be re-upped after the ongoing yearly changeover.

Hyundai finally settles inflated fuel economy claims lawsuit for $41.2 million

Fri, Oct 28 2016

Remember when Hyundai and Kia changed their claimed fuel economy numbers for a bunch of models? That happened back in 2012, and Hyundai has finally settled a lawsuit concerning the economy adjustment with a payment of $41.2 million. The lawsuit was filed by 33 state attorneys general, as well as one from Washington D.C. Each state will decide how to use its money from the settlement. According to Hyundai, this settlement was an "amicable agreement," and the company also denies any wrongdoing in changing claimed fuel economy numbers. Hyundai also reports that the agreement was reached, in part, due to the reimbursement program instituted after the economy adjustment. This program allows owners to be reimbursed the extra fuel cost, with payments determined by miles driven. The payments are sent after an owner has an affected car's odometer checked by a dealer. In addition, Hyundai also offered lump-sum payments as an option after the results of a class-action lawsuit. So far, the company reports about 75 percent of eligible owners have participated in the program. This isn't the only major payment Hyundai has made concerning the fuel economy issue. In 2014, Hyundai paid roughly $300 million in fines to the EPA. The company was also sued for inflated fuel economy claims in South Korea. In the US, models affected by the adjustment include the Hyundai Santa Fe, Accent, Veloster, Sonata Hybrid, Tucson, Genesis and Azera, along with the Kia Soul, Rio, Sorento, Sportage and Optima.

Hyundai missing Q1 earnings targets blamed on slow US sales

Thu, 24 Apr 2014

Slow US growth is hampering profits at Hyundai. In its first quarter financial statement, the Korean automaker reported a profit of 1.93 trillion won ($1.86 billion). According to Reuters, this is less than analysts' expectations and nearly the same as last year.
According to the report, US sales fell by 3 percent in Q1 2014. To make matters worse, the high value of the South Korean currency caused lower profits on models exported from there. On the bright side, Hyundai's Chinese sales rose by 9 percent, according to Reuters. It's also working on building a fourth factory there.
The company has had a rough time in the US throughout the quarter. John Krafcik, the CEO of Hyundai of America, stepped down on January 1, and the company was already predicting slow growth in sales for 2014. Falling quality scores for the Sonata and Elantra aren't helping matters either. However, there may be hope on the way. The second-generation Genesis Sedan was introduced to the US in Detroit, and the redesigned Sonata was recently shown in New York. Successful launches of these important models could prove crucial.
