The Connecticut Stinger Thread

Love it! I miss that sound. If you put in the manual mode... in 2nd gear if you get up to like 3-4K in RPM, and the left off and let it decelerate back down to like 2k you will hear gurgles and pops.. at least I did.

Only 2 ''hiccups'' were 1 bolt had messed up threads , that was replaced with a galvanized nut and bolt and the main tube gasket was beefed up with another s/steel gasket. Other than that It went in without a hitch.....I told him to trash the oem exhaust after seeing the puny tubes and the huge ass mufflers....buh bye to that I didn't need or want that around, kinda figured it kept the install price low as well....i'll be listening on my way to putnam 160 mile round trip.

Well the tubes are connected. The electric switch is connected. And finally the solenoid is also connected (to the tubes and vacuum feed). I got nothing. Fuse looks ok. Disconnected the switch. Waiting on more information. Before I move on to a manual decision.

Did you reach out to Jun BL for install instructions?

Naw it’s pretty straightforward the T spacer could only fit in one place. So that ain’t it. Gotta be the wiring.

neighbors' cousin stopped by while I was miffed at the car....we figured it out. small kink in a vacuum line... that was it. Acuators are working as they should........I have the switch mounted a little less conspicuous thou....under the hood, but you can reach it it ya know where to look.

Looking at buying a new Stinger, among a few other cars. Haven't heard too many good things about the Kia dealership experience, though. Any of you folks pleased with who you bought your car from? If so, which dealer/salesman?

Thanks.

Roma Kia enfield. Although I would seriously consider buying and registering in another state. Ct sucks they want tax you full balance of the car after trade in. That’s getting taxed twice for the same car!! I’ll never buy in this star again.
