    Kia Stinger Hatch/Trunk Rattle TSB With New Parts

    I still had the rattling until I saw another post. The KIA fix was additional washer but it was to thin. Once you add a thicker washer it fixed the issue. So the black pieces on the side once you lift the hatch, unbolt the 2 bolts for each side. Be careful as the washers will fall off. Once they...

    Greddy Korea intakes and BOV for the 2.0T and 3.3T Stingers

    Looks like the Jonnytig's filter has the front part blocking the airflow to the intake so it sucks nothing but hot air from the engine only. The K&N has the heatshield with a cut out for the airflow to continue to the filter. The Greddy doesn't impress me. Looks like they are aimed away from...

    intake

    Back to topic... I just installed mine and love it. Just a little bit of gas and you can hear her sucking in the air. When you do give it some gas and let off you get your Pssh sound and pretty damn loud too for just the intake. Almost as loud as having an actual blow off on my Optima SX. It...

    Oil Catch Can or No?

    So I just completed the K&N install. When taking off the tubing for the driver side turbo there was a pool of oil sitting in the turbo. Car had been sitting for around 24hrs. I do not have a heavy foot, mostly using Eco mode and cruise for my long drives to work. Completed oil change at 3000...

    Lap3 vs tune

    I've been very pleased with the Lap3 I had on my Optima SX for couple years. Most in Optima had it as well as not a lot of options I recall. Nice to now I can just move it over to the Stinger. They are they most familiar with Korean cars. With the Stinger coming out I think there will be a lot...

    Oil Catch Can or No?

    Correct. I have the 2 from my Optima I took off before trading it in. So waiting to see a install and possible their bracket solution. I have red so I may sell them then get blue to match the car and/or get the dual OCC so less to worry on installing 2 OCC.

    Oil Catch Can or No?

    Even if you do nothing to the Stinger this is almost a must to protect the longevity of the engine once you see the junk it catches that would build up. For the cost and what it does its the best mod esp for the pricepoint to have the extra protection for the engine. From the other post: the...

    Can we get a Kia Stinger LAP3 installation video or picture?

    Thanks! Stinger already pretty [powerful but were you able to notice it even more so? I think the report is about 73hp with 93. Have you installed OCC's yet and if so where to place to go along with the chip? So have only 2 people so far had some type of spark plug issues? Have mine still set...

    It pairs 2 dealers from same region with like-size KTB objectives for a head to head match up. Winners determined on highest percentage attainment of Nov-Dec 2017. Winners must meet a minimum KTB objective attainment of 100%

    Actually there will be 400 Sunset Yellow released in the states. It will be the GT but will also include the LSD that is only on the GT2 as well. There was a contest to determine which dealerships get 1.
