Shout out Non Turbo Squad 🤘🏽
Great video man! Very informative
Thank you :)
just joined the bon turbo squad!
Peter Bou Saada ab to buy one too
I'm a VT owner out here in Colorado and never put a lot of time into my cars. But I've kind of fallen in love with the VT and your videos really inspire me to learn how to modify and make the car a bit of a passion project. Its a fun mountain road car BTW. Thanks for doing these. Valuable stuff.
I really appreciate the kind words and glad I was able to spark some love for this car. I also agree about the mountain roads
Thanks for all of the tips. I have a 2016 Veloster turbo w/ a manual transmission. She’s a fun car to drive, but unfortunately she has a mind of her own and is always trying to get me in trouble. She insists on going 20 or more mph over the speed limit! …LoL She’s a little speed demon, but I love her! :)
Awesome video man, just got my veloster about three weeks ago. Your videos have already helped me out a bunch, they are so informative. Keep up the good work and awesome content.
Thanks bro! Appreciate it!
I just bought a 2017, and your video is the first one I've watched. Thank you for some great information. 👍
This is an ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC video; so much info in a minimal amount of time. It goes beyond owner's manual quality & addresses some of the more sublime topics & their time saving methods...Hyundai should take lessons & edit parts of this video into an addendum for its manuals! GREAT JOB!!!!
Thank you! I greatly appreciate it!
Amazing video! I’ve had my 14 Veloster for 4 years and didn’t know about 1/2 the stuff you showed. Great video and explanation! I’m a subscriber now! Keep them up
Thanks! I greatly appreciate the support!
Very interesting, my favourite tricks I learned from this video:
- Using rear hatch cargo cover as a bench to hold tools, etc while doing work on the rear
- Velcro cargo net on the back of the seat
- Custom photo on infotainment (you said you thought it was pretty basic, but it really isn't haha! Thanks a ton for sharing this one)
-*My voice assistant used to ALWAYS Work for me, not it never works at all... Really wonder what happened but it stopped working for me like 6 months ago or so. She never understands what I say anymore :/
This video really shows how much you know about the Veloster platform man... Easily one of the most knowledgeable about our cars, thanks for the time it took to make this video.
Thanks bro! You always know how to hype me up lol
@@Chayness I know what it means to get those few comments from people who really appreciate the effort you put into your videos. It can be motivating to keep going, even in the slightest! And that's what I want homie, you clearly have a passion for your channel and the Veloster platform; so I want to do what I can to help you keep going. Weird I know but my comments are always just me being honest lol, not everyone on here is toxic! At least not yet... :/
Octane Street if yall want help or have questions about the engine or modifying the car too feel free to give my insta a follow and dm me there as well! The veloster community is a great bunch of people! IG: VelostersFinest
Totally happened to me. My voice assistant worked great now I don't even waste time using it cause it doesn't understand a thing I at
Completely agree about the wallpaper. Little built-ins like that are awesome, but only if you know about them! Thanks dude 😎
You might not see this comment cus it’s been over a year since you uploaded this, but this was such a great vid, man. Just got a 2016 Veloster R-Spec yesterday and the info you put on the video is quite a blessing. Thanks a bunch for taking the time to go so I’m depth and include specs and even the light bulb sizes. I’m going to save this vid.
Greatly appreciate the kind words. I do my best to respond to all comments (assuming UA-cam doesn't hide them). I'm glad the video helped!
I like this channel.. veloster community is so cool .I have my 17 for 3 years come august this was still informative
Thanks! appreciate the kind words. Yea the Veloster community isn't too bad haha
OMG this video was so helpful. I have a 2017 Veloster so some things are different on the console. But that filter behind the glove compartment, yooooo! I hadn’t changed it in 3 years. Thank you so much I’ll breathe better because of you!😘😘Thank you.
Thanks for the kind words!
Just got my Veloster today, can wait to see whats in store! Also keep the great work up man!
Thank you, I appreciate it!
This was a great help!!! I’m now a follower!! I just got my Turbo!!! Super stoked to play around with it!! 🤙🏽
I just bought the 2015 vt and this was super helpful to get to know what my new car can do. I did not even know about the custom wallpaper very cool !!
I'm glad it helped!
Bro I’ve watched so many of ur videos and have learned so much!!! Keep up the great work! I’ve done soooo many of these mods and more! I’m in az but travel to Cali a lot! Would love to get a photo op with our Velosters for the club out here!! Great work and keep that gear head mentality turning! Awesome job!!
Yea bro for sure. Hit me up on insta and if something is going on when you're out here, lets link up!
Baby Metal folder for your usb music.. a man of culture i see. i approve
I gotta lol
I like the longer videos bro. Keep up the good work! Also, I love the hood. You ever have any issues with your intake and the vents on the hood?
Hey! So I haven't had issues because the bottom layer of this hood has a way of rerouting any water to be poured out at the front and this same mechanic block debris from easily getting under the hood
I just picked up a 2019 turbo ultimate. I didn’t know about holding down the traction control button to turn off stability. Thanks for the video I learned something new!
No problem!
I just got a 2018 Elantra GT. That, "my pictures" bit really helped!
Just got a 2016 Veloster and changed my screensaver! Thanks!
Yea no problem!
Thank you! I'm entering the Veloster community and really appreciate this. Wish I would have gotten a 2016 model now with the Apple Car Play tech package you mentioned
This was such a great video, definitely subscribed! My 2013 VT is my second car ever and I'm slowly trying to educate myself on it and cars and car modding. It's unfortunate that most educating videos like this feature the North American VT, I have the European model that's slightly different and has less HP 🙈
Just bought one today and this video definitely help I’ll definitely be keeping up with more post
Yea thats awesome! Congrats!
I'm Halfway through the video but So far Neat details and Tips man Planning to get a Turbo Here soon👌
Sweet! Hope some of these help!
Here I thought I knew a decent amount about my car, Chay over here proved me wrong, thanks for the tips and tricks, especially with the android auto download, I didnt know it could have android auto! Just need to download it and no more "incompatible software" notification everytime I charge my phone
Oh hope it helps!
You have the best videos,very informative.
Thank you.
Thank you! I appreciate the kind words!
POD on your playlist... love them ❤️
YES! This band is one of like 3 that has helped me get through some rough times in my life lol love them!
Thank you for your attention to detail😊 one thing I really love is the floor board light , in mine it’s blue I love it and the switch for it is in the lower part of the arm glove box ❣️ I didn’t catch that in your video but was wondering do you have it in the 2016? I have in the 2015. 😊
Awesome video! As for the headlights, do the Turbo and the RE:FLEX both use H11B bulbs? I have a 2015 Veloster RE:FLEX and the headlights look just like yours in the video. My driver's side main bulb is out and I want to make sure I know the right type before I purchase a new one. Also, do you know if they're typically LED or not? I want to make sure the old bulb and new bulb will match one another. I'd appreciate any tips!
You mentioned being able to install the instrument speedometer cluster like yours being able to be retrofitted into a 2015 base model. What is the additional connector that I would need to purchase?
You gave very good information which we new owners of Hyundai veloster got to know,besides the to car dealer which is very limited information
Amazing video.. im planning to a buy secondhand hyundai veloster 2016 1.6 turbo GDI automatic.. is it worthit in this year
Dude thank you. The bulb info was supper supper helpful.
Glad it helped!
Great video keep it up 👍
I think your vids inspire people too pay attention to their cars and want to do mods.
Great video man!
Thanks bro! I appreciate the support! You're an OG on here for sure!
As a veloster owner 2015 white. I recommend a cold air intake for the first upgrade! I love my CAI and the sound it makes is addicting lol. The intake will make the turbo sounds more noticeable. As well as the nice whip sound of the intake sucking in air. Next I did a muffler bypass. Basically the same thing as a muffler delete, but the muffler is still there so a cop wouldn’t be able to notice from looking under. It sounds very mean and it’s not obnoxious. I actually just took it on a road trip from SoCal-NorCal about 1000 miles and I didn’t notice droning at all. Flip it into eco and out of sport, it drives like a normal car. :) hope this helped someone out!
which cold air intake do you have?
Just got a orange turbo and I plan on doing what you recommend
i modded mine turbo 160 hp to 300 hp love it
Where did you get the muffler bypass, I rly want a better/louder exhaust but don't want to be "that guy" in the cul-de-sac and want to stay low-key if I am around cops etc
The Takeda intake is sweet. It comes with a little rubber cap. Installed, it sounds like a subtle little whoosh. Take it off for the full suction effect like she's gonna go full vacuum
They are such nice cars. I love mine.
Mine came with a velociraptor on the picture thing lol I never knew how to change. I like it.
Great video man,
Thank you.
Thanks for the compliment. Appreciate it.
Great video! Very helpful tips. I just picked up a 2014 VT for my daughter. Low beam headlights seem pretty dim. What replacement bulbs do you recommend? BTW, I love the animation of your LEDs. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks!
The blinking is actually how cameras pick up LEDs. They're just solid lit. No animation. Sorry for the confusion. For headlights, I was using SaberPro's by DDM Tuning but more common would be Lasfit headlight bulbs. I use Lasfit on other vehicles now.
Great video bro, I’m thinking about getting one soon
You'll love it as long as you're not expecting crazy HP lol
Dont
This guy so chill
Thanks!
For the image screen, do you need to keep the usb in at all times?
Thank you again and more videos 🤙😎 peace!✌️
Hi. I have a 2013 Veloster base model. It didn't come with a Cruise Control. Can i install an aftermarket genuine cruise control? If yes, can i get it online?
Thanks.
I have a Veloster 2013 Base and the touchscreen doesn't respond. I would like to purchase an aftermarket Head Unit for it. What brands do you recommend that has the latest features in the market for head units?
Your infotainment screen looks so good mine was busted and got replaced and it’s kinda scratched and works about the same in 2013
I bought a screen protector for it to make sure I wouldn't damage it lol
Big up to all Veloster massive out there I own one and I'm just loving it 💯💪💪
It's a great little car
Great video mate - 2017 VT from Perth AU
Thank you soooo much!
This video helped me thanks!
Great! I'm glad to hear! :)
I have well should say the wife has 2019 veloster N base how do u set up 2 step i herd they came factory w 2 step but cant get it to activate it has sxth ek1 pro w stage 3 n75 motorsport tune gd vid ty keep them up
Great video man really helpful I can’t wait to put some anime bazoookas on my vt
Any suggestion for changing out the exterior pillar windshield trim? Got the new ones, and cannot pop them on? Any specifics I need to do? Pls help. 2014 HV
When you got your rims, I’ve read a couple forums regarding the tire pressure monitoring system (TPS) always being on with aftermarket wheels, did you run into this issue at all?
I had no issues because we just moved the TPS senors to the new wheels
i just got my 2020 veloster T Rspec, gotta admit im impressed asf now that im almost through my warranty im looking to get extra horsies out of it and they share the same engine, but way dif suspension and transmition so ty. The 2017 variant looks betta ;]
The suspension upgrade on the second gen is so good though. Congrats on your car!
Great vid thanks do all these tips work on my 2019 trubo Tec?
Some should but a lot are specific to first Gen models only
I join the veloster community in 3 days. Great Vid!
Badass man and SoCal?
Me too!! :D
Welcome aboard!
Just bought a 2016 non-turbo version and didn’t realize there was a decent sized scene for this car. Great stuff. Didn’t realize the game console cord was a thing so now I’ve gotta hunt that down lol
Lol yea its a nice little car with lots of support
@@Chayness gotta get a converter for it, but my NES classic will have a nice little home in that center console
@@sunsetmiami_ You know i've also seen people build Rasberry Pi's with emulators. It's much smaller than the Mini consoles and can carry more games and support for wireless controllers. You should check it out lol
thank you for the video. just got a VT 2015 and have no experience working are car do you find it easy to add body work and interior work im looking to add some color to the inside any hope would be kick ass thank you again
I wouldn't say it's super hard but it isn't a beginner task in the sense that it's something the average person doesn't usually want to delve in. But if you're ok with a bit of hands on learning, you should be fine.
Awesome video, learned a lot. Can you retro Turbo headlights on NA? Also, does that video cable work with a 2013 velsoter?
The video cable should work on a 2013 and I've seen people retro turbo headlights and even front/rear bumpers to NA models. I'm almost certain it's a direct plug and play affair.
I just found this video! Thanks greatly!
Glad it helped!
@@Chayness and it was easy!
What would happen if you try to update the maps software even if you’re car is from 2015 and before?
Great Video!! Thanks
Thank you!
Is it normal for the Veloster to shake a little bit because of how small the engine is?
This guy knows his shit. 👌
*Very informative brodi thanks*
Can you advise me how i change the odometer from miles to KM VT2016 please?
I just got my 2020 Veloster turbo ultimate, definitely need more horse power . I need your advice pls at least 50 horses more .. what I need to get it done ?
Looking forward to hear from you
The one thing that is required from the newer models is a tune. You won't get much benefit out of even simple mods like an exhaust without a tune as it seems the 2nd Gen doesn't accommodate for minor changes. It's almost fixed to a specific setting. The other issue is that the newer models are equipped with smaller turbos. The 1st Gen was limited with it's turbo so if you plan on getting 50 more horses, you'll need quite an aggressive tune. Even then there's a possibility you won't reach the 50 extra horses due to the smaller turbo.
Thank you!
So, you said something about upgrading the AV system to Android car play. You mentioned an SD card slot. And, you mentioned the USB. Just curious...in order to upgrade, do you have to have the SD card or can you use the USB? Thanks and great video.
So there's a specific media player that came equipped on the 2016+ Tech Package that had all the navigation maps on an SD card slot in the front of the player (covered by a door that looks like a button). Sadly, previous tech package units don't have this available to them. Anyway, it's no longer free but I believe you pay like $125 and you can download the update file from the MyHyundai website, you put this file on a USB flash drive, plug it into the USB port at the bottom of the center console and it will upgrade/update the media player of the 2016+ Tech Units (assuming they have the media player with the Memory Card as there were some early 2016 models that sadly didn't get the newer media player). Hope this helps.
@@Chayness appreciate the information, but it looks like I'm just out of luck on this one. Mine doesn't have the SD card slot
@@United92GWhite Sorry to hear man. I want one of these media players too
Good video, I have a question though regarding the vehicle
Yea, what's up?
Late comment, but I’m thinking of getting a 16 VT how is it on maintenance and reliability in the long run?
Maintenance is normal. Nothing major and I've had no reliability issues
Can I also have a screen wallpaper in a 2017 V Turbo, or is it a completely different tech system?
It should be an identical process. The only exception is the models with the Tech Package as those systems had different UI's
I would like to have seen an indepth video on the cluster as I would like to swap mine out.
Can I also swap the mileage over to it?
I have a 2014 VT.
Well my model had the updated cluster so I could never do such a video but people who have done it claim it's as easy as swapping the cluster and adding an additional module that came with the refresh.
Question I have a 13 Veloster can I buy a 2016 2017 OEM head Unit with Nav and be able to use it like plug and play and then upload android auto and Apple CarPlay
That's hard to say because I've seen some of the early media units have different plugs from the 2016+ models. There are even some EARLY 2016 models that can't get the upgrade because they barely missed the production window. I'd probably first take out your head unit and take a picture of the connectors and compare to a 2017 Navigation unit to see if it would be an easy "plug and play" situation or if you'd be stuck doing some re-wiring.
I love my 2016 veloster turbo, I am the first user, and hate the dual clutch, recently just noticed when car shifts to 4th & 6th gear you feel car is jumping, it does not happen when speed is below 2000 RPM but noticeable above 2000 RPM anyone have idea of the issue!! Is it related to transmission oil or sensors!!
Is there any way to connect your Nintendo switch? Maybe through a separate adapter, anyone figure it out? I have a 2016 Turbo
hey bro I have a 2017 veloster turbo do you know what roof rack I could put onto my car?
I won't lie, i'm actually not well versed with roof racks. Id probably recommend looking it up on one of the Veloster forums
great review
Thanks bro!
On a Hyundai what does the stability control do I have try it I like it what is it doing.
It's more so to make sure you have traction. I'm sure if it senses the vehicle spinning, it would attempt to adjust for braking and throttle as opposed to just the throttle for traction control.
Have you ever thought about adding navigation?
yo dawg how do I turn off the AC/Heat setting. I know you can just turn the setting knob to Zero. But I dont like the fact that the light doesnt turn off, or can you turn it off? Like its either turned on for hands, hands and feet, etc but never just off
Oh I get what you're saying. I don't think it'll work on this as the buttons are digital and it'll always be on one setting. Sorry.
Hey brother I have a cluster 2016 for my 2013 base non turbo. We’re I can buy the adapter for my 2013 ? Thanks 🙏🏻
I would check with Socal Garageworks. They used to carry the adapter and have done the swap themselves.
I have a 2015 Veloster rspec where do I get the 2016 gauge cluster and make it work?!
It requires the gauge cluster and one extra adapter but it's pretty much plug and play. Last I checked, SoCal Garage Works sold both.
So I have a 2014 VT in Australia, is there a way to update the maps without having to take it into a Hyundai dealer and forking out $$ for an update?
There used to be if you enrolled onto their "myhyundai" website. Now even through that site I believe there's a charge. May be worth looking into thought cuz it may still be cheaper that way than taking it into the dealership.
Does anyone know how to fix the touch of the screen? In my 2015 Veloster sometimes it works and others don't. 😔😔
Can i replace my 2012 console screen to another on of 2016 have an android auto?
You should be able to but depending on the model of the car and the model of the media unit, you may have to do a little bit of work. I've heard some headunits are locked to a car VIN and i've literally seen some whose wires are just different. I'm trying to do something similar if i'm honest
Hey man, how are those LED bulbs holding up? I was thinking about replacing the signal bulbs, which LED bulb model did you get?
All my LED bulbs have held up great with the exception of one of the license plate bulbs but I do believe that was just bad luck. The signals bulbs I got were from an ebay vendor but they have worked like a charm. I chose them because they were the most affordable Canbus LED Signal bulbs I could find that didn't look cheaply made. Here's the link if you're interested: ebay.to/2XPcBw3
after i got my 2013 veloster the first thing i did was add a cold air intake
How do you turn on the Easter egg “game” I’m still trying to figure it out
It's under one of the menus. You legit press a button and I think it's called BlueMax or Eco something
I thought about getting a badass muffler but what brand do I go with
That depends on preference and your wallet. Most of the exhausts are your typical "loud" type so you can go with the OG which is Magnaflow at about $600 or you can opt for a "clone" which is MBRP at about $300+ depending on metal type and other options. Mine is the Greddy unit which is super quiet and clean (only opens up when high RPM) but will run you $800. And there are other options like from Korean companies that cost even more due to design and shipping.
I’ve been looking into velosters for awhile i absolutely love the look and sound of the turbo version of the car, only problem is I can’t find any with under around 180km for 10k and below, I don’t wanna spend too much for one based off a lot of the reviews I’ve seen and heard about them. How long do you think the engine will last?. I’ve found some decent deals on 2013 velosters but everyone says to stay away from them
also do you have a link that i could buy custom part for the VT 2015 Re:flex
There are plenty vendors but some that come to mind are Socal Garageworks, SXTH Engineering, Tuscani Customs, just to name a few.
Hell ya that bbe quick in the 90s. I had a laser turbo and that thing couldn't be touched . Except off the line by the stealth AWD. But I lose em on the big end everytime. Went over 180mph in that thing daily. 200hp was a ripper for a light car back in the day. Now ya pretty lame. But I tell ya I was pimping in high school with dat bad boy. Hahahahaha
Howd you get the touch screen so shiny?
I have a Tempered Glass Screen Protector on the Screen. I originally found it on Amazon but I can no longer find the exact one I bought. There are a few other brands though if you search for one.
Anyone know why my photos keep saying they are not able to be read. They are JPEG and range from 70kb to 1mb.
I've always wanted to work on my 2017 veloster value edition. Is it normal for the car to have high rpm when you accel? Even from 0-40?
Mine does
This car sits happily in the 3k RPM range but boost really kicks in at 3k and continues to 4k so it's not too uncommon
Just bought mine today and was wondering the same thing. Same year as well
