C.A.R.B. & E.P.A Information

Designed and tested in CAD for perfect OEM fit and finish.

Gain up to 6whp and 5wtq at the wheels.

We replace the OEM intercooler hot side tubing with mandrel bent 2.25in diameter pipe for maximum and smooth airflow. With no welded seam you get a clean looking and fully functional part. Power is gained from an approximate 19% gain in airflow capability over the OEM pipe.

This pipe is part of our Front Mount Intercooler kit for the 17+ Elantra Sport and 19+ VT. Purchasing this product will also eliminate the need for the Resonator Delete Pipe.




Our pipe comes powdercoated in a wrinkle black, for a subtle OEM look and feel. We use very thick silicone couplers and stainless steel t-bolt clamps for a complete installation.

INTERCOOLER HOT PIPE UPGRADE

Hi all, I bought this product for my Kia ceed gt 2019 (CD) 1.6tgdi two weeks ago.
My Kia ceed model is same compared to Elantra gt or Veloster gt with 1.6 tgdi.
I have read a lot of reviews and finally chose SXTH.
Communication with SXTH personal on very professional level.
Delivery to Slovakia in 1 week, superb.
Product quality is on very high level, maybe even better then OEM.
Product fits to my Kia perfect, no interference to another engine parts.
Better throttle response, and turbo spool.

Hot Pipe for VT 2020

This product was simple to install and looks great underneath the car. Only downside was the powder coating scratched off pretty quickly during install when it rubbed against a nut.

I originally bought this and the CPLT intake system to help out with the oscillating of my turbo spool when going under heavy throttle.

After installing both of these products the oscillation is gone , response is great and overall just a smooth feel to the spool now. Both of these parts added made for really nice noises too!

Nice Mod, Minor Gain

Definitely not a huge difference after installing but there was a change in the overall induction sound and maybe just the slightest pickup in acceleration.

The parts are well made and good looking, even though you really won’t be able to see this piece when looking at the car from the outside.

This product replaces the hot side intercooler piping, which from factory is a really strange multi piece thing that even has a sound resonator in it.

I had originally bought the intercooler resonator delete pipe for 30 bucks and had every intention of installing that during an oil change but I read reviews from people saying that the factory rubber pipes you connect the delete pipe too are crappy so if you can, just upgrade the whole thing to this solid one piece pipe.

The diameter of this pipe is maybe slightly larger than the factory ones but the elbows are factory sized so you can’t really be getting much air flow increase because the end pieces taper back down to exactly what they were from factory.

After having this installed for a bit I noticed a slightly louder induction noise but nothing really as far as a performance boost. I may have placebo’d myself into thinking the car was feeling more responsive honestly.

For whatever reason, Hyundai made this peppy motor with not so good solenoids so there is a lot of boost surging and power drop off. This part won’t address any of that. Go for solenoids, get those first and then get stuff like this, more of a support mod really.

Haven't used it much yet but so far I'm in love with it. Install should've been pretty quick but I'm dumb so it blew off the first time and I have to redo it, other then that so far so good.

Thx for supporting the platform, and keep up the good work.

Nice little boost upgrade

I feel in love with this product as soon as I started to hear my turbo more clearly, the installation was very easy took me about an 1 hour to complete and quite frankly was impressed with how the car was able to handle boost a bit better, really love the product and the quality of it

Wrong clamps

Since they send me wrong clamps I spend 5 hours trying to put the piece, but couldn’t make it and I’m frustrated.

Absolute must have

Had issues with the OEM hot pipe coming separated due to flexing and increased boost pressures. Tried the resonator delete & t-clamps it was ok but this is a game changer. Installed it and made a 400 mile road trip right after install. After an hour of driving I felt confident with the part I could really dig into it. Turbo spooled noticably quicker with this and downpipe. Car makes all the right noises in all the right places. Absolutely 10/10 would advise.
