    Hyundai as a brand is one of the greatest comeback stories the automotive industry has ever seen. From making cheap cars to get people around to creating the spectacular Genesis sedan, they have truly stepped up their game in every single way. So what if the Korean brand decided "hey...lets try and completely take down the hot hatch market and make it affordable, fun, and exciting?" That's the brand new Hyundai Veloster N - a car that will make you even question the Honda Civic Type R as the king of front wheel drive. Today we get to drive the SXTH Element Engineering Veloster N equipped with a Pure Turbo upgrade making 340HP to the front wheels! So what's it like driving this Korean hot hatch? Let's go for a drive and find out! Thanks for watching and new uploads every Tuesday,Thursday, and Saturday!

    • @Osprey1994
      @Osprey1994 4 года назад +24

      It's not underappreciated...it got hyped and then it didn't really deliver everything. Look at the 2020 review by savagegeese because it sums up why it didn't have a lot of staying power. The sad thing is that David ignored that VW has the GTI which puts down a lot more power stock than people think, and with a tune APR has their going from 212/222whp and 258wtq to 288whp and 337wtq. You want more power? Downpipe an intercooler and a intake and you can happily make 308whp and 355wtq. Oh wait you want more? You can pick up a IS38 turbo from the Golf R and bump yourself to 358whp and 363wtq and still not be on a big turbo setup. Want a big turbo? If we stick with APR and what they have been quoting you can jump to 438whp and 408wtq which will make the Veloster N look cute with all it's go fast aesthetics. It would also be mentioned that VW has tons of aftermarket support I can think of 5 tuning companies off the top of my head not to mention companies that make parts. I struggled to find one company with a tune for the Hyundai Veloster turbo.

      And out of all of your tuning and HP talk, it quickly becomes meaningless to me. Especially after I drove a Golf R before ever buying my N last year, there was just this big disconnect between driver and car with the Golf R. N is a much more engaging car to drive. The Golf R was just numb to drive. There was just no feeling to the steering wheel so I had no idea when the front wheels were doing and the shifter is just so bland to use. You may not understand any of this because you have an obsession with dyno numbers but this is something that no tuning shop will ever tell you.

      OspreyBravo18 GTI ignored? It’s a video about the Veloster, not the GTI. The Veloster N is a brand new platform. Of course there is room for improvement, and of course you’re not going to find as much aftermarket support. Clearly you didn’t watch the video because there isn’t a lot done to this car in terms of power mods, and it can keep up with most modded GTIs I’m aware of. What a dumb comment.

In South Korea a guy is pushing 480hp out of his Veloster N. It has potential, just being a new platform it needs time and commitment from the after market world.

      @@Ppareja1976 A few reasons. The dealer I went to (that was near several other dealers with the cars I was considering) didn't have one on hand and it wasn't worth going out of my way to test drive one since there were a few things that kind of ruled it out for me. With any options it was a little out of my preferred price range without getting one older than I would have liked. Also, it's no secret that the sti is dated and pretty lacking in several characteristics. I absolutely love the unequal length header boxer rumble but unless you're someone who's always dreamed of owning one, there are just straight up better cars for the money imo.

      @@clintpopham5691 I like the feel of the N MUCH better than the Type R overall. Yes it has less power and even tune for tune will not be as fast in a straight line but the N is better in and especially OUT of corners than the R since it has a better torque band. The Type R is an awesome car but the cheapest dealers are selling for in most places is $5,000 over MSRP. I got my N for $11,000 less bottom line than an R would have been and with a downpipe, intercooler, intake, and tune I'll still be $8500 cheaper than a stock R. For that price difference I could do what 6xthElement has done and do the interior in carbon fiber, the hood, front scoop, lighter wheels, and upgrade the turbo and then it WOULD beat a tuned Type R and still be a good price lol
      Also I only pay $65/mo for insurance on the N, you can't say that for an R haha

      @@Wolfy400 Brand snobs? You know about the FACT that the reason Hyundai/Kia are doing this well is the fact that they basically replaced their entire design and engineering teams with people who used to work in Audi, VW and BMW? So the car snobs are right, because the people who used to make great cars for "snob brands" were hired by a shitty brand, and then turned that shitty brand into a brand that makes great cars. The whole N-line of Hyundai's is developed by a guy who used to be one of the leading engineers in BMW M division. Those are FACTS. There's no such thing as "brand snobs". There are simply people who know A LOT about cars, and those who don't. And those who don't know a lot about cars often believe that highly regarded brands are only considered great because of their badge, but ignore the fact that in order for them to be considered great, they had to get to that point. And how did they get to that point? By consistently making great cars. You think someone who likes BMW's over Hyundai's is a snob? No. It's just a fact that BMW has been making the best cars in every segment they competed in for decades, and Hyundai has been a synonym for cheap disposable cars during the same time. So obviously BMW will have a better reputation, and Hyundai will have a lot of work to do in order to prove they're on the same level. It's just that, they couldn't do it on their own, they had to hire the very same people who made BMW great, in order to make Hyundai/Kia have a chance to compete with them.

Head gaskets are also different. They also have different cam shaft configuration they can share valve springs and valves but that’s about it. Please be clear when discussing this as loosely they are cousins but not the same.

My engine was taken care of well since i got the car basically brand new so my timing is only 1 to 2 degrees off of what e85 guys run, so i’m just about at 340whp
