4b11t going into new RWD Hyundai coupe

[Halon]

The Evo X ECU has some very annoying airflow limiting tables. It compares TPS to RPM and if the current airflow isn't close to whats in the airflow tables, then the car goes into limp mode.

Sounds like my Saab. You can't add too many bolt on mods or the car will detect that it's flowing more then designed, and will throw a CEL and put it into limp mode. Only way to combat it is with some plug n play ecu mods which I'm really not a fan of.

Also, from what the guys at AEM have been saying, it's gonna be hard to up the boost even on the stock turbo with the stock injectors. The flowed them at like, 335cfm, and they are pushing 97% duty cycle in the upper rpms. They have a set of RC 650s in it now and they seem to be working well with their F/IC piggyback setup.

Inside Line Dyno Test: 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 2.0T

http://blogs.edmunds.com/straightline/assets_c/2009/03/genesis%2020t%20dyno1-thumb-555x370.jpg

Although the 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe is offered with an optional V6, it's likely that the turbocharged 2.0T version is destined to be the more popular choice. It's less expensive and lighter, plus it's got a happy spinny thing under the hood known as a turbo. And when it comes to tuning potential, a turbo is hard to beat.

We tested a bone stock Genesis Coupe 2.0T on MD Automotive's Dynojet chassis dyno located in Westminster, CA. Hyundai says its 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder generates 210 hp and 223 lb-ft of torque at the flywheel, and like most factory ratings for turbo cars, those numbers are a bit on the conservative side.

Hit the jump to see the dyno chart and other discoveries.

Peak torque arrives at 2500 rpm and then peters out all the way to redline. Clearly, Hyundai's prioritiy in crafting this type of power delivery was to ensure the Genesis Coupe 2.0T felt responsive around town.

This run was performed in fourth gear. Third gear produced a lower peak torque value since the engine would "outrun" the turbo--the engine revved through 2500 rpm quicker than the turbo could provide the requisite boost.

Here's something to help prop up that torque curve at higher engine speeds. When we were strapping the car down to the dyno rollers, we saw this:

As if the Genesis 2.0T's two catalysts bricks and dual mufflers weren't providing enough exhaust backpressure, the company's engineers went ahead and smashed the exhaust down for good measure. Okay, it's that way to provide miles of clearance for the chassis brace underneath, but that it further reduces dangerous horsepower is like a gimmie for tuners.

Wow, a turboback has got to work wonders on this thing, I can't wait to see some people making big power with these.

[scheides]

LOL @ the exhaust, but most stock exhausts are pretty much a joke anyways.

[A//// Guy]

That's hilariously dumb...

[Kevin 1G Drummer]

Haha I was about to post that Inside Line report. That stock exhaust is just rediculous.

[rose0529]

yeah edmunds/insideline seems to be on top of this car!

[sleepydsm]

Maybe it was designed that way to help limit power, aka make the v6 appeal more.

[Dundars]

I really like these cars performance wise, I just hate the way they look.
