I can FINALLY say that I'm the proud owner of a Kia Stinger! LOL 2018 GT AWD w/19" wheels in Sunset Yellow. *Big Cheesy Grin*

I am no longer just helping folks with their cars... now I get to play with my OWN! Let the adds begin! Hahaha

Excellent! If you weren't already, you will be your dealership's go-to salesperson when people call in asking about a Stinger.
I called a dealer 190 miles away from me (because they had 9 or so Stingers on the lot) and got transferred to the salesperson that had leased a Yellow GT2.

He was great to deal with as he knew the car backwards & forwards.

Congrats & Enjoy your consumer research program.

Whats going to be your first mod?
First are looks; LED reflectors, scuff plates, door handle pockets, cup holders....

Then the intakes from Tork and a tune. I haven't decided yet which tune I want. LOL Thinking about an ECU but hard to part with the dough for the spare ECU. Leaning heavily to the RaceChip.

Great ideas! I've been running the racechip on sport mode for about 6000 miles on just gapped OEM plugs with zero issues.

That's exactly what I expected! The factory plugs are more than strong enough as long as they are gapped properly.

What are your thoughts on the RC? Do you find yourself changing maps? Do you run in eco mode? Are you running 91 octane?

I dont really change modes on the RC but switch between comfort and sport on the car. I only run 92 or 93 octane fuel.

I'm really happy with it, my only complaints are the wire routing (be careful to ensure wires and hot parts don't touch, seems obvious but...) and the fact that I feel like I need to remove it for an oil change at the dealer. It only takes 5 minutes but it's still annoying.
