Low 16s is TERRIBLE. AMS got their bone stock 2.0T to high 14s.

But I agree, Hyundai could have done a much better job in making the Genesis 2.0 moddable.

There are a lot of silly little things that Hyundai chose to do in that respect:

-BOV integrated in turbo compressor housing
-Returnless fuel system
-Electric throttle body (with emissions-improving, but still annoying, throttle hang)
-Relatively weak internals (compared to EVO X)
-Not much room for a FMIC

Basically, it's no DSM or EVO.

Thanks, man! It helps that most of the people I run are friends. Takes all the usually BS right out of the picture and means we can keep running whenever we want.

Nice runs. They are cool little cars, nice to see some other makers stepping up into the RWD platform. A million times improvement over the tiburon thats for sure.

On a side note, a ricer I know at work has a tiburon with cherry bombs on it and some hideous body kit, and hes getting one of the V6 genesis pretty soon. He insists it runs 12's stock and he's gonna smoke me left and right.

Sweet race! The Genesis sounds nice when you both start off. Too bad Dave didn't show up...I would have liked a run with the CTS-V.

i just didnt expect much since they were doing like 14.2 or 14.3 when i saw it compared to the v6 camaro

We're shooting for 13.6's in better weather.

Good race to both cars!!! Throw a couple bolt-ons on the Genesis and it should be a good door to door race!!!

When the genesis ran those times were you shifting it manually or letting it do its own thing?

taking a friends auto v6 to track soon and would love to see some 13's

Ju1ce

Put it in sport mode and let it shift on its own.

I would like to see how the sedan with the v8 would do against a g8. My boss at my last job had one and it seemed to run fairly well. Anyone know what those things should run?

ehh did I see the same vid that some plp saw here? It wasnt any close to me. No boltons are going to make up for the Genesis sry; top end of the G8 will still kill this thing.

Anyway, easy kill OP.

before any **** storm; I dont have any problems against Hyundai product, especially the Genesis which is a very nice car that I would own...if there wasnt any GM product!!

no match for G8 GT

It was about 1.5 cars I would say, which is a good race in my book. I really have no idea how they do with bolt-ons, does anyone have any experience with a modded one?

Irunelevens

Something that ran a 13.9@101mph stock in 3000' DA might be pretty quick with a few bolt-ons in good conditions... maybe not a great race with a G8 GT, but close maybe.

Ju1ce

That Genesis is going to run 13.6 @ 102.5+ by the end of the year, stock.

BlueGoat06

Screaming, you need a tune on that G8, the factory TM in the stock calibration is very aggresive, and will hold her back, guaranteed. she'll double/triple the gap in the video if she was tuned. give it a try and you'll see. Even a canned tune can do wonders in our cars, especially if the only thing you're doing is adding a CAI.

ScreaminRedZ

iTrader: (3)

Yeah, I've definitely got plans to mod it up down the road. I think there's one around here that is tuned with a CAI, so I want to run him and see him much that improved it. Should provide some incentive

I'm definitely hearing great things about getting them tuned and I hope it gets rid of some of that laggy feeling that it has stock.
