The 20+ year-old Nissan motor has quite often been pumped up beyond 400hp on the stock block...........can this Hyundai do that? Not to mention the cost difference of a new car versus used.

sure did. the only thing its really missing is a fully closed deck. it still comes with forged pistons and the author estimates it will hit 400 @ 8000 (1500 higher than stock) without issue.
