I absolutely love my optima! It’s a 2018 SXL and I love the quickness of the car and the sleek design. I was planning on making it a little quicker and maybe even a bit louder. I plan to eventually put in an intake and a new exhaust system. Anyone have any recommendations on exhaust system?
Hate to burst your bubble but doing these things may be a bit difficult. Your dealing with an engine that is computer controlled and those things will have a big affect on it. Not sure if different EPROMs are available or if the computer can be reprogrammed for these upgrade? I miss the old days when we could just put Cherry Bombs on our cars
Yeah I do realize that computers have become a big part in controlling our modern cars, and reprogramming a computer is not a task that frightens me. I have quite a bit of computer programming in my background, so I don’t mind learning a new programming language or even a new software to help reprogram the ECU or Transmission Computer Unit. I also know that a tune (reprogramming the computer) is a must if I am going to start messing with the amount of air entering and exiting the engine. Thanks for the caution though 👍🏻
