    Thanks man. It is a bolt on kit I purchased from TurboKits.com They made the first North American Turbo Koup ( I'm #2) and have been testing the limits of the engine. I think they got up to 16lbs on factory internals and broke it all down to see the condition of everything. They plan on a stage2 setup making 400+ hp! I'll be upgrading when it's available!
    The exhaust was fabbed by them also- full stainless 2-1/2" with high flow cat.

    Not every day you see a nice looking turbo Kia that has good aftermarket parts on it. Car looks great. Sounds like their factory internals are fairly stout in OEM form for a N/A motor. What are you tuning with?

    Thanks guys. It has a piggyback AEM/FIC already set with a base tune from TurboKits. It is running great the way it is, but I need to get it dyno'd and tuned to get the most out of it. Recommend any dyno-tuning shops near Akron??
