Being new to this forum, I thought I'd kick off with question / request for advice...

I have the 2litre 2WD Tucson, and although it is a generally decent vehicle, I get really frustrated with it's lack of guts. I live on a farm and the access road is pretty steep in places (no need for 4WD though) - with just driver, it goes up the hills no problem; with driver and 1 passenger it struggles a bit; with driver and two passengers it needs constant up-down shifting to keep the thing moving. In the latter case, it goes from wheel-spinning in first gear to almost-dying in second gear.

So, the question; is there any power enhancement / turbo conversion available that will boost the engine performance??

On the open road it performs reasonably well, but would benefit from that extra power for overtaking safely.

Ideas / info anybody?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumbsup.gif)
