Default what do you guys think of....

I was wondering what you guys think of Hyundai Accents? I drive a 2002 Hyundai Accent and I have beaten lots of civics, saturns, and other cars. He has a 1.6 DOHC Liquid cooled Scout engine outputting 117 HP. HE has an intake on it so it has about 135 HP. I'm not knocking civics or hondas, I still have my 91 Civic and I still love it but i was just wondering on your opinions? Also Where could i get parts for my hyundai? Thanks Guys!

A Hyundai Accent with 135hp?!?! I think not: http://www.hyundaiusa.com/

But then again I don't know what a Scout engine is.

Ummm yeah... Hyundais.....

But in all seriousness, I do admit they are drastically improving, I don't like 'em but drastically improved none the less...

Go with the bolt-ons (if they exist) and if you need some power on tap go with Nitrous.

18 hp from an Intake???? Unless that scout engine is a twin turbo or a monster V-8, I don't really know if I believe that. (and even if it was, you still wouldn't get 18 hp)

Your Accent, what year is it?? usually the accent has a 1.5 litre SOHC. My friend has one that is a 2002. He's got an intake, exhaust, headers. His car is quick, but i think he's puttin out about 108HP to the wheels. Not to knock it or anything, it's a nice looking car. Just not the fastest. But whatever floats your boat.

I got to admit I like the Tiburon, I think it looks phat, but it will NEVER beat hondas.
