Kia Stinger GT - How To Install Injen Intakes (3.3TT) 

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it. Just doing what I love bro!!

Lol! Nice man!! You can’t beat the sound of a V8, but the Stinger GT is a very fun platform that’s definitely different! Thanks for the support 🙏

Agreed it took me a while to adjust from a v8 but the twin Turbo v6 is a lot of fun to drive. Just brought home a 2023 Genesis G70 3.3 and it's amazing. Same car basically as this stinger. Couldn't be happier with my choice. The German cars need to take note.

Man you will enjoy the sound of them turbos!! , it’s loud AF

Thanks bro!! Yeah I have some ideas for good videos I haven’t seen yet. Thanks for watching

@@twn2rbo cant wait for em chief, good stuff

Nice! Yeah that was mine too and it started all of this. The sounds really make driving the car so much fun

@@twn2rbo I got a quick question. Do you think the borla exhaust is worth the extra money or should go with the mbrp pro?

Thank you!

Thanks for watching !!

Thanks for watching !!

Thanks man! Get it!!!

That was my first mod, it will make the driving experience so much more enjoyable and you will love the sound of the turbos sucking in air and blow off pressure from the diverter valves! Enjoy man!

@@twn2rbo is it normal for the edges of the filter to touch a small amount ? Just installed and is running good but want to make sure

@@AWD_Kia yes, just be careful bc the mesh is easy to damage. I would look into the snorkels though so you have some direct air flow on the cones, they lowers my IATs avg 13 degrees

@TWN 2RBO I'm starting another order for parts soon I'll add those in. Thanks !

Congrats! Yes, disconnect the negative battery, install the intakes, then re connect the battery and start it up. Enjoy it! If I remember correctly it came with all the hoses needed. I may have re used an OE hose but I can’t remember. The intakes were the first mod I did before I decided to start a RU-vid channel. All future mods like this will be recorded and done step by step though.

Check out my last video. I was in the same mentality, I took them off. Worth the extra 30 mins to me vs possible thousands if the wanted litigation. I’m an mortgage underwriter, so I analyze risk all day. Plus, I got to make a video to maybe help someone! Thanks for watching man

@@twn2rbo what about your new exhaust? Wouldn’t that cause an issue with returning the lease? Guess I couldn’t always buy out the lease later….

@@vikingengca9878 anything is possible , but they didn’t say anything about it on my first service. However, it’s a bolt on so it’s a simple removal prior to returning the lease 😀

@@twn2rbo Good deal. Thanks for the info and love the channel.

Tbh there is one that connects the OE air ducts into a shroud, that’s more of a real cold air intake with bigger cones and piping for more CFM (air flow). It will also provide the same sound. I would go with that one but I can’t seem to find a link, someone on the fb stinger page posted it the other day

Absolutely, that’s going to be my next video!! I work full time as a mortgage UW, but I find time to do what I love!! I am going to record the install tomorrow morning, but I should have it up in the next week for sure. Thanks for watching man

Check out my IG - I posted a story of a quick video intro edit I am working on for the JB4 install!

Nice! Can't wait for the video brotha

To be honest, performance wise they are all going to perform and sound about the same. These are definitely good looking, but at the end of the day, we have a larger diameter tube with a high flow air filter on the end. There are many other reputable options to go with, my deciding factor was the wrinkle red color and Injens outstanding reputation.

They can depending on the dealer if they do the install, or you can get the worse case scenario like my “Kia Stinger vs dealership” video I made. Really just depends

You do not, they do sound cool though and help maintain boost levels a little. Congrats 🙌

@@twn2rbo thank you so much for your time. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I wouldn’t know prior to the JB4, but my deep search in the threads show it is a particular code. Nice thing about the JB4 , if that happens you will know the code through the app. I’ve had not 1 issue since the Jb4. I can’t seem to find anyone with my particular issue I had after the exhaust install. But no issues with Intakes alone ever, even before the tune

www.k8stingerstore.com/ this is where I get everything . I did order the JB4 directly from burgertuning.com/

To be honest, it’s kind of like looking at a Honda and Toyota, not necessarily do i prefer one product over the other, but the JB4 support is second to none. If you have an issue, they are on it like crazy and many users rave about the support. It’s very simple and easy to use and they perform updates regularly. It was a tough call, but I am happy with it. The stinger GT just needs a tune period.

Central Indiana! Not familiar with up north except I have some family in Mishawaka. Love to have a fellow Hoosier on here bro 🙌🙌

@@twn2rbo what part of central Indiana? I live in Lafayette

@@kyleclevenger3467 Indianapolis

Really just looks, they will both suck in the same amount of air , actually the BMS has a slight better design with the heat shields imo . Injen is also a brand name with a great fit and finish so you pay extra for that as well. Check out AFe, they have one of the best engineered systems I think, it’s more of a “cold air” intake

You don’t NEED to, but I recommend you do for extra power. If you decide not to tune, that is fine, it will sound AMAZING, but don’t expect any significant power gains unless you tune. Thanks for watching

Injen is known for top tier quality and the cones are easy to clean with no oil, K&N is another great one, it boiled down to looks between these two and the wrinkle red really caught my eye, and when I seen they were always sold out, it made me want them more. That’s what started my relationship with K8 store, I was able to pay a little extra and they found some for me and shipped right away. The intakes sound so good, but in terms of sound, they are all going to be the same. Sick!

@@twn2rbo are you going to do the swaybars at all?

@@michael-qv2du yeah eventually, I am going to focus more on appearance next since I have the performance I want now. I want to lower it slightly, do some dark carbon fiber wrap on the black chrome, carbon fiber paddle shifters and figure out what i want to do with the wheels. I’m more of a 0-60 enthusiast straight line enthusiast, but I’ve considered them.

@@twn2rbo I feel that ill be waiting for the uploads

Original equipment still

@@twn2rbo damn. The intake just sounds mean as hell then!

@@Marc6818 oh yeah, that was my very first mod. Sounds so sick. It’s pretty loud, so then I had to balance it out with a cat back. That opened her up a little!

Yes

@@twn2rbo thanks so much and keep up with the vids loving them

Yeah you can run up to e30 with intakes and tune. I’ve had best results with 3.5 gallons of e85 and the rest 93 oct. The high pressure fuel pump caps out after e30

@@twn2rbo thank you, hit me up if you would like to liquidate some of your take-off parts. I just want in the 11’s even if 11.99 😂

@@davidroberts4897 TCU tune, it will help like crazy

Do you can run e30 with stock fuel system???

I would just keep the diverter valves on and get intakes. You’re wasting boosting with blow off valves, you will hear plenty of blow off in the open intake cones. BOVs will be louder, but are not worth loosing a little boost and the potential for having boost leaks.

@twn2rbo appreciate it brother hope you're doing well and life is always improving

When I recorded this video, the JB4 was uninstalled. I did record a bunch of content 2 days ago installing the JB4. I found out how to put music on my videos, so I got the intro done, I posted it on my IG story @TWN2RBO. After I finish this video, I’m going to post a video of each map - but map 3 with e30 mix is my all time FAVORITE. Daily, map 2 w 93 - she’s mean either way, but map 3 is a beast!!!

You are correct, but I installed the ram air intake snorkels and the IATs have lowered significantly. I am going to get the carbon fiber heat shields as well. If I didn’t tune this car, I would have gone with a different option for sure.

@@twn2rbo in the big picture your "cold air" is created with the intercooler on cars like these i guess.. probably should just worry about maximum air intake more so than the "CAI" box(the snorkels definitely help all of those issues). Thanks for the content & being active with a reply too!

Yes and no, the mod itself is for more air due to tuning, if you purchase the snorkels like I did, they redirect the air directly on the cones, I have other videos showing the before and after the install and the IATs dropped significantly. However, for optimal results, I would go with the enclosed AFe air box with snorkels connected

@@twn2rbo Yes, you are so right, I agree with you --- go with the enclosed AFe air box with snorkels connected.

@@nickandros2057 My 3.6 sec Stinger vs 4.8 sec stock Stinger.. don’t care. 🤷

@@twn2rbo you would be faster and safer with the stock boxes. That's all I'm saying. I'm sure the jb4 is worth the money. Sucking in hot air isn't.

@@nickandros2057 the best air intake system for the Kia Stinger are on my newer videos with GT2 Grand Tourer edition.

For sure, keep up the great customer service and I will keep coming! FYI, JB4 install video is currently in the making!
