So I finally got a chance to throw my 4.6L on the dyno at my office tonight. I posted recently about a track outing that the car ran a conservative 14.2 as I didn't want to push it to the limits on the launch and was asked if I can get some dyno results since I have easy access to a dyno and...

Tomorrow I'm putting the sedan on a dyno 100% stock! Hyundai says 333hp and 291tq but I'll give my results as to what's at the wheels just for fun!

Today my company had a day out at the dragstrip to close out the season and I finally had a chance to bring my 09 4.6 Genny. I plan on fabing up my own custom intake and exhaust this winter and was curious to get a baseline before I start the performance modding. My girl currently only sits with...

Picked this up for 25$ and gave it a go. It's a 3 step process specifically for black cars. http://www.turtlewax.com/shop/products/turtle-wax-jet-black-black-box-finish-kit Highly recommended. After 5 hours and a lot of elbow grease here are the results:

Hello to everyone! I recently saw your site and found it interesting and I signed up. 2 Days ago, I did an acceleration test with scanmaster which reads data directly from ELM 327 interface (OBD II). (Hyundai Genesis Coupe 2010 3.8 Auto) Me and my friend weighed about 115 kg. Air temperature...

This was done on a DYNOmite Dynometer at TPIS in Chaska, MN. This dyno has you jacking the rear, removing wheels and attaching dyno modules to each rear hub. My first run was the best. Unfortunately, forgot to print this run result. Car had numerous power reductions with torque management...

My first post so go easy on me if i dork this up. Just picked up my 2010 4.6L (17,000miles) last month. I thought it might be fun to match some of the 0-60 claims. Here is what i found. Stock. 93 Octane (East Coast Gas). 1/2 tank gas. Stock Dunlops. 55F temp and Dry. I first tried with...

I have a 2011 4.6 sedan and when I'm traveling and try to find a "point of interest along route" it always to comes up with "No Matches" on my Navi.. Have any of you guys had this problem? When I'm around my home it works but not cross country. Am I doing something wrong? Example...I can look up...

So I downloaded the Dynolicious app for my iPhone, an my 1/4 mile results were surprising. I hit 0-60 in 5.33 seconds and did the quarter mile in 12.85 seconds according to this app. My hp and top speed were messed up because my iPhone slid sideways during the test affecting the...

Well I took my car to the local dealer to get the second key programmed and floor mats installed. Althogether it took about 30 mins to get paperwork sorted out (these items were promised to me when I bought the Genesis, but the paperwork got lost in translation). Then another 45 mins to get the...

I just got back on a 550 mile road trip with the Genesis. The 1st day I went from my home in Andover, MN to Tofte MN to go hiking at Carlton Peak that overlooks Lake Superior. This was 230 miles, and I averaged 28.1 mpg @ a cruise control set 71 mph according to the GPS, which is actually my...

First I should explain I have a long isolated commute... 87 miles a day mostly flat (no elevation variation more than 100 ft)... v-8 sedan... I have been tracking MPG against driving and noticed that I get about 2.3 MPG better economy at 67 than at 57 indicated (Navi reports 65 and 55)... I use...

I'm sorry to report that my Genesis is no longer pristine. Due to an unusual set of circumstances -- including eight inches of fresh snow and an Alzheimers-riddled parent who chose a bad moment to act up -- I was unable to stop at a red light last week and struck an '02 Honda Civic. The left...

So Hyundai sales were down -14% for 2008. That is a lot less than Toyota, GM, Ford or Chrysler! December was ugly though being down -48%. Genesis sales were only down slightly versus November at 1,040 units for the month. Azera and Tiburon are on life support. You have to ask how many potential...
