r/StingerGT

You do not need to drop the subframe for RWD model, im not sure for awd models if u are mechanically inclined you can do this
All you need to do is remove the sway bar, and steering rack and serpentine belt.
Tools u need are wrenchs, big and small, socket set and pilers
Of course gauges and a vacuum pump
The car takes 560 grams of r123yf so basically two small cans and 3.5 oz of pag oil for r123yf, some compressors have it added already but most time you need to drain the compressor of shipping oil, i also like to pour some in where the lines attach too.
Just did this project in 3-4 hours, extra 2 hour for vacuuming lines and checking if it holds vacuum

See so here’s the thing, I got my 2022 gt2 around 10 month ago now and was aiming for 450-500 wheel.. since that is what I figured was the safe limit to be able to enjoy a load of power with everyday reliability… I’ve gotten a full catless exhaust primary and secondary with BMS jb4 their intercooler catchcan diff brace upgraded fuel adapters and their charge pipe kit. K&N intakes too.. then I took it to my tuner after throwing all these bolt ons to tune my JB4 custom 6 since I kept going on limp mode too.. when I took my car he told me my ecu was already flash tuned and that’s why my car felt quick I hit 400hp on first dyno run!! anyways my tuner had a hard time to make the custom 6 work perfectly with the old random ecu tune but he finally managed to make it work and I topped off at around 432hp on my last run (note the charge pipe kit and secondary catless DP was after I took it to the tuner)

So the car has been running very smoothly and she’s very quick, but the main issue right now is that i get into limp mode when im pushing the car more than usual I suspect the ecu is reading an overboost, I have to switch the car off and back on and boost is back, I also suspect that I’m not getting the FULL potential of all my supporting mods because of my random ECU tune, I was also thinking of going for a TCU whenever I finally tune my ECU since my gears are sometimes sluggish and jerky.

I’d love to know how beneficial the ECU and which brands I should go for, and if the TCU would be of any use with the numbers I’m hitting. Another issue I have is that I’m all the way in dubai and I have no clue how I could buy one of these tunes abroad without talking to the tuner since I lack the experience myself ..

Hey guys,

currently looking for cold air intakes for my stinger GT 3.3 2019.
Is there someone in Germany, who drives Aftermarket Intakes like Injen or K&N and can tell me if its possible, especially for the Injen intakes to get them registrated by the TÜV?

Thank you!

It's time to replace the windshield on my GT2. Have to pay out of pocket. It's my understanding Kia likely needs to do the calibrations. What did y'all's process look like? Is Safelite reputable? Thanks.
