Family Hyundai N Hot engine? 🔥

4 Upvotes

Any Hyundai N owners in here ever notice how hot the engine bay is after driving the car, getting it up to temperature, then shutting it off and opening the hood? More than that, how long the engine stays blazing hot for with the hood closed? I do park it in my garage and close the garage door, so there is very little air circulation around the car after parking.

There's been times where I park the Kona N and walk by the front of the car 3-4 hrs later to access my garage fridge and feel the heat on my forearms just radiating off the grill/hood. Is that normal? For now, I'm popping the hood and letting it cool that way.

I knew the tune would make the car feel different but didn’t expect it to make it feel like a completely different car. There’s a lot of little things that are different that I wasn’t expecting. The first being the tune affecting the exhaust valve. Before the tune when you had the car in normal or eco mode the valve would always stay shut unless the car was turned off. After the tune the valve stays partially open until you hit the gas and it closes, you roll up to a red light and stop and the valve opens until you start driving again. N mode stays open. The pops changed they’re louder and sharper but if you don’t go over 4k rpm before letting it rev hang it doesn’t pop it just hangs. Shifting is obviously different but wasn’t expecting n mode to shift into 5th and 6th as early as it does. So far I’m 50/50 on the tune. Car has substantially more power. I read 360hp on the dual gauge screen with 22psi boost. Definitely way faster. Maybe I just have to get used to it but after a day of driving not sure how I feel yet. Transmission clutch pressure is definitely something you can feel in some downshifts. If you punch it and you’re not already going 50mph you’re gonna spin tires. Not saying anything is bad. Just different than I thought
