Hey, guys im reasonably new to the forums and was thinking of doing some performance upgrades and would like to see what people think. Because i keep asking people locally and keep getting mixed responces and would like feedback from people which have these parts on there genesis coupes!

First off im planning on getting the following parts!

1)Deatschwerks 550cc injectors
2)Power Axel BR tune Stage 2
3)CX racing Intercooler kit (since im not planning on going over 300-350 hp and the intercooler is rated for 400hp)
4)Injen SES exchaust with test pipe!
5)TMW short shifter!

so that is the parts im looking at to purchase! now im asking you guys what you think about all these and if you've had any experiences with these products! i have asked some locals and have told me the injen exchaust has corrussion issues in canada due to snow and other tell me that the deatschwerks injectors are garbage as they are bored out stock injectors and they were never designed to be 550cc which will cause them to fail. Anywho i would like to hear about your experiences before i deside to purchase anything.

Im also getting mixed responces about if i really need the 550cc injectors if i do a stage 1 BR tune and exchaust and intercooler, and CAI!

Thanks alot guys and i appreciate the responces in advance!

ps. already have a INJEN CAI INSTALLED!

MY MAIN QUESTION IS WILL I RUN LEAN (ALSO DRIVE IN WINTER) WITH STOCK INJECTORS IF I RUN A BRTUNE STAGE 1,EXCHAUST,INTERCOOLER,CAI??

All i know about those is the Injen intake is suposedly very good. I have a friend with the Injen on his 350z and he told me they spend a hell of a lot of time on the Gen exhaust. I will tell you though i put the Megan Racing Downpipe on. I love it. And the Forge BOV. I thought it would be louder, but i do like the sound and how it is not too much.

I will let you know about the exhaust asap though. i plan on getting it in the next few weeks.

That IC doesn't look any bigger then the stock one...may as well just get INJEN piping instead...

LMAO. I retract my previous statement. Man Hyundai really charges a lot for the $HIT PARTS in this engine don't they.

sorry, FMIC? i'm guessing that is a type of Inter Cooler? I would like to know about this CXR Racing Intercooler as well? looks nice. I like my BOV though so i wish they have an option to not use their BOV. But ya does someone have this system? If so is it good? and Maybe even if anyone has some feedback about an Intercooler they have liked or recommend?

lol bro, i have the cx intercooler, read above. it comes with some type of HKS bov. i think it looks great, the fitmet its a bit off, but gets the job done, and no CEL.

i would go bigger, but im a bitch and dont wanna take my crashbar apart

My bad My bad. Sweet man So would you say its worth it? how is the performance gain? I would think an intercooler would be a huge help. But what do you think? is it like a night and day difference?

CrispedPenny

· #20 · Jan 25, 2011

i wouldn't say night and day, i think its WAY more efficent, even though the core isnt top notch, but you can def tell the diffrence in holding boost
but if OP is getting injectors, with tune - id expect a night/day difference
