Hi friends it me Saki

I showcased my turbo elantra, Akame last November. She was pretty stock back then and it was quite a while since the last update so I figured I'd show my progress on her for all 3 of you that care

Akame as of 6/9/19

Under the hood:

1.6L T-GDi Engine
230WHP
280~ lb-ft torque
0-60 in high 5 seconds
depends on if its hot as hell out. Would be better if it wasnt wheel hop city

Things done to her:

K&N Short Ram Air Intake

Resonator delete

Custom mandrel bent axle back with 3 inch piping and staggered burnt blue exhaust tips

Gloss black Avante lip spoiler straight from Korea s/o Albert Hwang

aFe Scorcher GT boost module

Nankang NS-25 wheels

KATA vinyl windshield banner

Front tow hook license plate relocate

Debadged "Elantra" lettering, replaced with "Avante" (which is what its called in Korea haha)

35% tint on all the windows (Woulda went darker but VA cops are no fun allowed and 35 is illegal as it is)

Various anime stickers because I'm a massive weeb


Future plans:

HKS M45X Spark plugs

SXTH Dual Oil Catch Cans

HKS Super Sequential BOV

Enkei M52 rims

YSR Coilovers

SXTH Rear Sway Bar

Some non-shit tires would also be nice


Anyone in NoVA tryna stop light race hit me up haha just kidding state farm this was a joke

nice build so far bro, i cant wait to get things started on my 2019 scatpack. I plan on doing a few cosmetic stuff this summer (rear louvers, rear diffusers, front splitter, and darker window tint) and then i plan on saving all of my money (that isnt needed for car payment and gas) and then next summer im gonna slap a whipple super charger on it and obviously all the supporting mods.

Quick question tho. Thats a sick license plate with the 'dont tread on me' snake. Is that only available in Virginia? Im in Maryland and im having trouble finding different license plate designs.

Yeah I had the option to order it when I made my vanity plate, it's literally called "Dont Tread On Me". Not sure what they offer in Maryland but the VA DMV website shows all the plates you can order, I'm sure Maryland has something similar.
