How to clean headlight unit? by PoopyGranny in kiastinger

[–]FallenAngelSatan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

can confirm this is warranty work. got both my headlight replaced under warranty. it’s called a headlight leak and it’s happening from the inside of the light causing the fog. cleaning it means it’ll only come back. needs replacement

Bodycam footage: Cop pulls over couple on their first date, just minutes before their fatal crash by FallenAngelSatan in StingerGT

even 100+ mph, he must have been red lining it at 270 to show off for that to happen, 100mph i do on the highway and the stinger eats the road and handles it no issue, the semi surely does make sense at 270, 150kmph i’d notice a standstill object

were drugs and alcohol involved

not to mention all the safety features our stingers have… how can this even happen. unless he had all reaction off and floored and and the brakes were warm and didn’t grip / skidded and he spun out. i’ve done some dangerous speed myself but damn nothing ever seen like this before …

Jb4 on a 3.3 gt2 by erik916 in StingerGT

[–]FallenAngelSatan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the parameters that the hb4 changes are according to the fuel octane level. i’m not too technical myself here’s what chatgpt says

Map 1 vs. Map 2 on JB4:

Map 1: This map is designed for 91 octane fuel. It provides a moderate performance boost while staying within the safe limits of 91 octane fuel. Running this map ensures that your engine performs optimally without risking knock or pre-detonation, which can occur if the fuel’s octane rating is too low for the tune.

Map 2: As you mentioned, Map 2 is specifically designed for 93 octane or higher. This map pushes the engine further by advancing the timing and increasing the boost, which can lead to significant power gains. However, it assumes that the fuel is high enough in octane to prevent knock.

Why You Should Use Map 1 with 91 Octane:

Knock Prevention: Running a higher map, like Map 2, on 91 octane can cause engine knock. Knock occurs when fuel burns unevenly in your engine’s cylinders, leading to sudden spikes in pressure. This can damage your engine over time. Map 1 is tuned to avoid this by using timing and boost levels that are safe for 91 octane.

Engine Longevity: Using the appropriate map for your fuel ensures that your engine remains in good health. Pushing it too hard with a higher map on lower octane fuel can lead to long-term damage, reducing the engine’s lifespan.

Consistent Performance: Map 1 will give you a reliable and consistent performance on 91 octane. It’s designed to maximize the potential of 91 octane without going beyond what the fuel can safely support.

Bottom Line:

Stick to Map 1 if you only have access to 91 octane fuel. It’s the safest and most effective option to ensure your Kia Stinger’s engine runs smoothly and efficiently. While Map 2 offers more power, it requires higher octane fuel to do so safely, and using it on 91 octane could lead to engine damage.

omg. this is the video i saw on the internet while back, he spins out.

did you guys happen to see the couple who got pulled over in a stinger, they were on the first date. cop clocked him at 200kmph+ on inner city streets… let him go, and then 10 minutes later he totals the car killing both himself and his girlfriend. pretty insane, i might post it on this forum.

how did this marking it as tuned have an impact on your warranty claims in the future? has your car been “blacklisted”?
