4b11t going into new RWD Hyundai coupe

[1QUICK4]

They sould be a solid little coupe. The Genisis sedan should be on our lots very soon (V6 model). They have been trying to shoehorn the 8cyl in the coupe but it looks like a no-go.

Hopefully they'll have one on hand when I head back to the Illinois training facility.

P.S. the sedan is one smooth motherfucker, lets just hope they dont have the same chain tensioner problems that the 3.3 and some 3.8 in the FWD platform have.

It looks like Korea is getting the V8 in the sedan, aren't they? It just got released over there. The coupe is what I am really interested in though. I could jump on the aftermarket parts for that :D

good.... something to fill the void of the mitsu powered fun coupes

The V8 will make it into the sedan in the US also. The engineers haven't been able to squeeze it into the coupe but if Chevy can fit a 5.3L into a newer Monte Carlo I'm pretty sure they will get it done. Just might take a little massaging of the block design.

The Hyundai guys will not say that there isn't going to be a supercharged V6 in it, so that may be in the future. That would be a ton of fun.

good looking car! can't wait to see some of these rolling around.

Reminds me of G35/37 coupe, I'm liking it.

[MustGoFaster]

3.8L+MIVEC+turbo's = less traction than a Supra!

Sure the 2.0 turbo will be easier to mod, up to the point of what the stock engine can handle (how are the 4B11T's doing in the X's?) after that the 3.8 MIGHT be a decent way to go.

Wow, at that price point it will sell like crazy.

It saddens me to think of how many douchebag kids im going to see bov-ing around town in these otherwise cool cars. Much like the srt4 phenomenon
