ARK Hyundai Veloster Turbo Headed to SEMA

Hyundai has joined forces with ARK to build a burly Veloster for SEMA. A custom twin-scroll turbo bumps the Veloster's modest 138 hp four banger up to 348 hp. I'm not a huge fan of putting a ton of power into FWD platforms, but hey, it's a show car--no one is actually gonna drive it! but damn the veloster looks 48994x better than the CR-Z

The ARK Performance Hyundai Veloster will showcase mechanical, interior and exterior modifications including an open wheel concept with aggressive fenders and Nitto tires. ARK will also develop Veloster specific parts to showcase the tunability of the engine and vehicle exterior.

Cant wait to see more of the Veloster, modded or not. I've heard from people who have seen these test/press cars that its got a nice wide stance but the tires and wheels are too narrow for it. This SEMA car should fix that problem..

i've driven the veloster before and it handles pretty well and an overall fun car to drive even with the 138 hp engine. The wheels are actually fine if you get the 18" rim package
