Default new Genesys spec

Hyundai's 2.0-liter inline-four receives a new twin-scroll turbo unit and an upgraded intercooler, meaning there's now 271 hp and 275 lb-ft of torque.
For the 3.8L V6 it's 345 hp and 295 lb-ft.

The Hyundai looks great on paper but it still needs a ton of development. Maybe 2 generations from now it will be a "Z" killer.

Yeah, the genesis, is truly a poor performer on the dyno from what I've seen. And the heavy weight makes for a boring car

^Really? I forget who it was..but one of the fab guys on the genesis forums was selling his NSX because his Track packag'ed Genesis (slightly modded, 2.0T) was only slightly slower than his heavily modded NSX....

i think it was cody from lovefab if i remember correctly!

Sounds more like Cody was trying to drum up Genesis business than making a factual statement. Not to mention who know what shape the NSX was in.
