Reliability weighs on Volkswagen's porky SUV

A city-driven Touareg will scarcely travel 40- 50,000 km before a complete brake job is needed (typically $1,800), and the factory Dunlops or Pirellis are pounded into smithereens, owners warn. was an engineering marvel, but an overweight one that wreaked havoc with the vehicle's brakes and tires. After a short year and a half we had to put $3,000 into it for new tires, brakes, rotors, etc. Volkswagen's first sport-utility vehicle, the Touareg &ndash. read one owner's assessment. I just traded a 2006 BMW 330i for my Touareg and love it for what it is. It is a heavy, cumbersome mammoth of a SUV,&rdquo. a disgruntled owner posted.
What is the best turbo for Hyundai tiburon 2.7L and is not very expensive and what is the specification of this turbo will it need ECU reprogramming? (asked by SPQR on July 19, 2009)
A: I strongly recommend you join www.newtiburon.com, which is the world's largest Tiburon forum. We have a LOT of Forced Induction tibs. The best turbo kit for the Tiburon would be a custom built one. See the attached link: http://www.newtiburon.com/forums/showthr ead.php?t=87013
Also, one of our users did an online journal of his turbo build: http://www.newtiburon.com/forums/showthr ead.php?t=122863
Turbo's for the V6 Tib are fairly rare (there are lots of turbos for the 4--cyl verstion though), but there are a LOT of supercharger options for the 2.7L V6: NGM Sniper, NGM Assassin, Alpine Supercharger. Check out the for-sale section, some guys are selling their kits!!!
As the first poster mentioned, you will need to upgrade your injectors, and possibly the fuel pump as well as have some sort of fuel management (Apexi Neo, etc.). Now, we do have a lot of Puerto Rican Tiburons running high boost turbos on stock internals (some over 400 WHP). But most people install a built motor before going forced induction.

A: There is no "best" turbo its all about the what it can flow. Most applications use a hybrid t3/t4 due to ease of manifold configurations. Don't even think of putting a turbo on without upgrading the fuel pump, injectors, and even possibly the fuel rails. A stand alone computer system to regulate the fuel would be the best, but a ecu flasher might work. I'm guessing no engine work has been done so any more boost than 5-6 psi will fry the pistons, and even then it'll probably spin some bearings and fry the clutch/tranny. N/A cars were simply not ment to be turbo. Not saying it cant be done, it can, just be sure to do it correctly less you make a paper weight of your engine. (answered by Joe on July 19, 2009)
Q:
What twin turbo would be the best for my 08 Hyundai Tiburon GT V6?
Lookin to twin turb my new Tib GT but can't really find one that will work. Anybody got an idea of a twin turbo that would work? And if you could, give me a quick estimate of the cost to have this thing bought and installed at a performance shop? (asked by Eric on June 18, 2009)
A: I know this is not the answer you are wanting, but just the amount of money it will take to upgrade the engine so everything doesn't melt or exploded is insane, I can see just one turbo being fine, but not two, your beautiful car will not make it past 30K and that is being generous. Your best bet is to Supercharge it, it is much cheaper to install, and puts less stress on the engine. Check out some of the youtube videos on supercharged Tiburons

(Plus there are lots of websites with superchargers for them) (answered by Aaron B. on February 11, 1133)
A: Wow, Twin turbo...
i dont think i've heard of anyone putting twin turbos in their Tiburon, but im sure it can be done by a performance shop.
And, the supporting modifications for a single turbo cost a lot of money so the supporting modifications for a twin will also cost somewhere around an extra $1,600-$2,000.( intake, headers, exhaust, Intake manifold, throttle body). You can find these items at:
www.ngmhouseofpower.com
They sell Superchargers for the Tiburon, and Single Turbos for 4 cylinder Tiburons i believe.
All of the supporting Mods, and Twin Turbo set-up will cost anywhere from $4,000 to $5,000 + installation and Labor. It would make a Monster Tiburon, but it's not very practical and this set-up would be very hard to maintain.(highest octane gas, 93 or higher). (answered by iceman_092 on June 18, 2009)
Q:
How to install turbo on Hyundai tiburon without dyno?
I have stock Hyundai Tiburon 2.7L V6 ENGINE installed in Hyundai Coupe 1.6L i wanna to install turbocharger on it so what is the turbo suitable for this engine to boost in high RPM?
In my country there are no Standalone ECU or Dynos available so the only two option is to upgrade the injectors and fuel pump and ignition system, is that enough?
can any injector 3.0L or more from other car fit my engine and are there another easy or intermediate way to upgrade my fuel system
note: i will not upgrade the engine component like pistons and camshaft (asked by SPQR on July 20, 2009)
A: You should be able to street-tune your car. If you have a wideband (Apexi, etc.) you should be able to do a street tune. You WILL need a fuel tuner (such as the Apexi Neo).
As far as turbo choices, Garrett T3/T4 Hybrid is probably the best choice
