ForteTurbo.org is the premier resource for Kia Forte Turbo Owners and Enthusiasts.

Our goal is to be the go to place for everything Kia Forte Turbo related.

To keep the place friendly, we ask that every new member post up an introduction thread letting us know a little bit about themselves, their current (and future) vehicles etc.

Please help us keep this site friendly and informative! Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone!

I've been an active member on forteforums as well as the VT forum. Glad this site has finally launched!

I own a 2014 forte koup SX 1.6T. I post pictures first thing as soon as I get to my computer. I'm hoping to chat with other turbo members! Haven't met any around me and only a couple on other forums.

Hi,
I would post an introduction, but it's not letting me create a new thread for one! gives me a permission error. I can reply to posts (obviously!) just cannot start a new thread.

Hi Markus. Same thing happened to me over at velosterturbo. Couldn't even post in other threads. And they didn't respond to emails! So many questions but unable to get answers.

Hey everyone I am new to the site i have a 2015 kia forte 5 sx turbo. I am new to the kia world but been around turbo cars mostly my whole life just a bit of info on what i have owned i have had a mazdaspeed 3, Srt 4, Focus ST and now the kia forte 5 sx. To be honest i just got this car and i love the car more than any other car i have owned i will be doing plenty of mods to it coming very soon. I have been talking to Tork motorsports about different parts already to see about making a hot pipe adapter kit with a bov flange and they will be talking to the fab guy to see what can be done. I also asked about the hand held tuner and they said that it is coming very soon. So anyways im new to the forum and hope to see if i can get more info about what you guys have done to your cars.

Welcome! Tork has a lot of parts for us already. There is a 1 piece hot pipe that is in the works right now that I am trying to get done. Me and Max (aka Knee) on here are the test cars for Torks tune and there are some good tunes out there by them now. I am shocked you came from a focus ST. A lot of guys rave about that car and said they would never come back (mostly VT owners)
