Tork Motorsports Ultimate Tuner KIA/Hyundai 1.6T Smart Stream

Welcome to the new world of tuning, phone/tablet APP driven tuner that allows you to tune on the "GO". 

This is not like those shared Wi-Fi or Bluetooth tune tuning solutions that sends data via email or app to car, no no no. This is a secure tuning solution that stores the tunes on the device, verifies the integrity of the tune, then uses the phone as a user interface to the tuning module to make changes. For those of you that understand what this means, geek out :)

The model list is every expanding for the tuner, but... we at Tork Motorsports have taken the time to sort the basics of the tuner for each and every car we offer tuning services for, thus... you can expect dyno charts and through processing paperwork/emails for your make and model. 

Lets move forward with the newest engine from KIA and Hyundai. The Smart Stream 1.6 turbo. 

I would love to talk this up, but... the dyno chart says everything! The shop car is bone stock, with just a NGK race plug (heat range 8) installed. 

This engine will be amazing, given the power gains shown in the dyno chart are with full stock exhaust, full stock intake and full stock intercooler. 

The list of Smart Stream applications for the 1.6 Turbo 

We will not be limited to just the 1.6 turbo, so stay tuned for future model/engine release.

Here are our tuning details:

PLEASE NOTE, WHEN TUNING WITH US ITS ALL CUSTOM TUNING. WE ISSUE PARTS AND OCTANE LIMITS ON OUR TUNES THAT INDICATE THE "STAGE" THAT THE TUNE IS. BE IT "STAGE 1" OR "STAGE E85" ALL OUR TUNES ARE CUSTOM.

1. Look at how smooth it is. Compare this with our competitors' tunes.
2. Look at the power across the curve. Very linear, hold power to redline.
3. Torque onset, we delayed and slowed the torque path on initial boost gain. This will make sure the clutch lives a long and very happy life with our tunes. The DCT and even the manual clutches have been known to slip under hard torque spikes, and we figured out how to mitigate this torque onset.
4. Gain's... what is a tune if it doesn't have impressive gains 
5. Base ignition has been edited +0 to +5 degrees at torque onset to redline. This is a very conservative ignition number.
6. Boost pressure for this tune is currently under 20 psi, given the factory air box was fighting us if we went over 20 psi, we figured that 18 to 20 psi would be ideal for the average consumer who does not want to add an intake.
Now, we have listened to the market and realized that their are a few changes to the tune (non performance oriented) that needed to be addressed. Here are the details for those.
1. Steering wheel location to torque output. Some have complained that when pulling out from a parked position and making a sharp right or left hand turn, throttle control is non-existent. There is a map for this function that addresses this odd throttle behavior.
2. Shift quality. Not very many know, but the shift quality is controlled by the ECU more so than the TCU. Shift quality being the time that it takes the torque to go away and come back from a shift. We have adjusted these maps primarily for full throttle shifting, but it's a linearized reduction all the way down to 18% throttle. These changes will allow the ECU to com into power quicker and with less clutch slip. Less clutch slip means longer life from the clutch (DCT only).
It's changes like these, that make a tune functional and enjoyable! As I have said before and more and more tuners across the nation are using this phrase. "Tuning at full throttle is easy, it's getting everything else right that takes time!"
