    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

Guys,

I am looking for a 2011 4.6 V8 owner in the Phoenix and Ontario areas that is open to mods, and is willing to do a test run.

This test will only take a little bit of your time, and will dramatically help the V8 sedan community with previously unavailable tuning options.

A 5.0 owner will be needed in the future, but as of now only the 4.6 is ready for testing.

I can share very little publicly at this time, but i think most of you can catch on to what's going on from my previous posts/comments as well as what I have stated here.

Please understand the nature of this request, and how it will help the community in general. Given this, please keep speculation posts and whatnot to a minimum. When I can share more, I will certainly do so.

This is through a shop that is the front-runner in the industry for this type of work on KDM vehicles, from day to day rides up to SEMA builds. This is the type of R&D that will bring supported, viable products to owners like us. There is a little bit of co-ordination necessary between parties in Korea, hence the multiple locations. I hope to add more locations to the list as they become available.

Please PM me with interest and further information.

Thanks

This sounds interesting. I would love to help but I have a 2010 located in the Bay Area.
 
Actually, I just found out from the shop that the next two available locations will be Phoenix and Ontario. I'll update the original post in the AM
 
Subbed.
 
Six years, 5 months, 8 days and counting ;):):D
 
Please see changes in original post.

Thanks
 
Is the tuner BTRcc or SFR?
 
I have been asked not to share publicly until testing has been completed and a salable item is available.

Please understand.

This is a legitimate company looking to develop options for sedan owners. They are extremely excited to venture into the sedan market.
I offered to use this forum to help them, as it helps us as a community...and therefore me. :)

Upfront costs have been absorbed by myself as well as another member of this forum who owns a 5.0. As of now, we are just looking for help testing results on a Dyno, as well as assisting with the tuning process as the locations are not local to us.

Any particulars insofar as incentives will be covered by the tuner once volunteers have come forward.

Please PM me if you are within driving distance of Phoenix or Ontario and are willing to assist. I will give you as much info as I am able at that point, as well as contacts with the tuner.

Thanks
 
Can't wait to see dyno numbers. I bet the farm these things run pig rich from the factory and can pickup 30hp easy.

I wouldn't be surprised. Factory tuning is always conservative and this being Hyundai's first V8 I'm sure they took some step to limit stress. I wonder what the timing looks like as well.

If for some odd reason you need one in BC, Canada then I'm your guy.

I suggest starting a donation page like a GoFundMe. I'm more than happy to donate.

When you say Ontario, are you talking about the province in Canada or the city in California?
 
The event is in Vaughan, Ontario.
David, you don't feel like driving to the east coast, do you? lol.
