Took the coupe to the track saturday

[wild willy]

if it's not a sports car, then what is it? mine sure doesn't look like a family coupe. how long would it take the ram to flip over on a road track?

Sport Coupe, Grand Touring Car....

Bitterness among the non-Genesis owners.

I used to drag alot in my air cooled VW. The 1/4 track was not my 1st thought with the Genesis but I am curious to see what it does. My 1st thought was the run through the desert on the way to Vegas. Did it and got there in record time.

I was considering the track only to gauge the improvement(s) once I start tuning the car

any way you put it.....the 2.0t is slow.

its a nice looking entry level car that is peppy but not as fast as say a honda civic SI
I should know...I own a 2.0t.

that said, the 2.0t is a nice platform to build power if you are into that.....and I am.
the 2.0t can build some crazy torque and some decent WHP with a few minor bolt ons.
with a turbo back exhaust, intake, wastegate actuator, and powerAxel reflash a 2.0T can make 250WHP (thats 300 engine horse for those that do not understand WHP) and 300-340 torque.
this puts it in a different class of cars and because of the nice torque it will be faster off the line than a lot of 300hp cars.

now add an improved intercooler and turbo with supporting mods and you can shoot for 300-350WHP depending on your boost levels.
I have seen lovefabs 2.0t hit around 380 whp with their new turbo kit on you tube. (considering buying this one)
If you go beyond bolt-ons and start upgradeing internals it seems the 2.0t is breaking the 500WHP area which is impressive considering that the Genesis has not been out for long.
