@@Steven_Bo1 I have another genesis (black), with new videos up, and a new build thread! Got this one for the OG supporters lol check it out: www.gencoupe.com/threads/6-2-liter-supercharged-v8-swap-full-in-depth-build-im-baacckkk.782773/#post-4787875
LS3_LaFlare let me ask did you teach yourself on the ls swap? Or went to auto school and just picked up knowledge here and there as you go along. Like what tips could give for a noob like myself.
Muggo Mad self taught. In 2016 a guy named Brett Hupcheck or something hyped me up that his shop could swap. When I bought the engine/trans (LS1 originally), he stopped replying to me and ignored me. Guess he didn’t think I was serious! So stuck with engine and trans etc I had to suck it up and knock everything out myself. Asked for help from a lot of people only to get ignored or short answers! Basic stuff like AN fittings I didn’t understand. I bought books and magazines (overkill), mainly for tuning, and forums of other platforms for fueling, understanding fittings, cooling, etc., and my Dad is an electrician so he helped me grasp the basics of wiring. Now I’ve done so many swaps (GTO, now 300zx) that it all comes naturally. Some guy asked me why his o2 sensors cut off after starting the car and I immediately knew it was grounds blah blah my point is pony up and become independent. People suck. Google is awesome. Teach yourself! Or, because nobody helped when I was a noob, I document and film my builds to show people no matter if you are rich or poor, tools or no tools, smart or dumb, IT CAN BE DONE. Cheers.
Just getting started! It is currently down right now for a BK2 front end conversion and supercharger. Still will be filming more races with fast cars, and drag strip etc.
This 2011 Genesis Coupe (3.8 Track originally) was parted out in 2018 after I blew the tranny (Tick lvl 2 T56) during a pull after it was supercharged. It was a great few years (bought in 2015, it seen a LS1, LS3 NA, and LS3 supercharged), but instead of dumping more and more money into the platform, I decided to switch it up. I think I parted it out in early 2018, selling the engine, trans core, swap kit, shell etc... Then I bought a GTO on my channel and took out the LS1 in that, added LS3 NA, then supercharged it! Now... I have a 1990 300ZX that has a supercharged LS3. All of it on my channel for those interested!
@@Terryshowedup 😅😅😅 currently building a LS7 e36! But since I posted this comment I’ve had an Evo8, FD RX7, C6 Grand Sport, WS6, Porsche 944, and probably forgetting some. Most of which is on my channel lol
LSA supercharger build is finished. I drive the car a lot but I haven't had it dyno tuned so no races. Sorry for the delay, I will post more content soon, I promise! Thanks for all the subs, views and likes!
Thank you so much for sharing this build. I live in the North Phoenix area and have a 2012 Genesis sedan, that I’ll doing an LS swap on. I just read through your build and this will definitely guide me through. Since like yourself I’ll be doing this by myself.
I believe size is the issue, but the genesis should've come with a V8 from the factory. There is a Hemi swapped genesis floating around somewhere, I seen pics a few years back!
Payday coming up! Should be wrapping up the Bk2 front end conversion and supercharger build! I'm aiming to be on a dyno before the month finishes. Stay tuned for dyno vids and more races again high hp cars, hellcats, zl1, vettes etc...
LS3_LaFlare hey brother I have a mint 2013 R Spec w/9,800 miles...yes less than 10k anyway would love to drop an LS3 in but need a reputable person to to make this happen, but I guess my question is how much should I expect to drop to make this happen...I kinda am guessing 10k would that be close??? thanks for any input
Much respect for showing the C7 & the cop. It's easy to brag and show only what you win, takes a lot of humility to show the other side of it. Great work with the car, too.
Thanks brotha! That C7 was spraying and didn't tell me lol would've been a nice run otherwise. Cop was cool all things considered. I appreciate the comment.
I was thinking the exact same thing. There is no way that C7 is headers and tune ONLY. FBO and tuned i dont think ive seen a c7 make more than around 470 wheel. N2O makes the most sense because at first it was close and after he barely starting pulling all the sudden he starts gapping you like he was putting down 600+. Either way nice ride man. I love seeing unique rides like this putting the smack down.
Yeah that thing is super fast, I've beat a base C7 before so I thought it would be a good run with one tuned. The C7 in the vid is also auto, that transmission is no joke lol and I didn't have enough traction to start a gear lower. No excuses, but I was played lol
Absolute killer build man congratulations! That thing is a one-of-a-kind and a monster. I always thought the Genesis Coupe was a good-looking car. Now it's got horsepower to back it up.
Yup this answered my question what to do with my 2010 track 2.0. Time to make a track 6.2. I wonder if my Blueprint 427 would fit.....to make a Track 7.0.....
Your car is insane I’ve been looking into a 3.8 for some time now but I want something more than that 306-348 horsepower and I know bolt ons won’t get me too much more and the unreliability of a turbo on a car like this a nightmare lol. so I was thinking LS swap or even a 2j but anyways back to your car shits insane mad props don’t see many brothas even into cars like this let alone doing a swap like so. Well earned subscribe from me.
You don't know how much I appreciate this comment. I know race will set off some people, but you are right, the amount of blacks who care about cars is few and far between. Locally I've met a few brothas Trel and Charles and immediately befriended them, we instantly had that understanding lol met a TON of white and Spanish friends alike, cars are a universal language. I love it. Car is officially down for the supercharger build so I'll post up a vid explaining my experiences, and some more vids next month when the car is back up, thanks for the subscription!
Also, I had a bk1 3.8 auto. 306hp crank, and I doubt it could even hit 300whp without boost.... Big reason I swapped was for a manual, I love the look of the genesis.
LS3_LaFlare LS3_LaFlare funny enough there’s a small local genesis scene and everyones either black or Latin lol. Don’t see a lot of Gens out there though! Except the occasional middle age soccer mom trying to get her youth back lol But oh my GOD. This build is crazy. It sounds so aggressive. Feel like yours would eat my coupe if you ran up behind it 😂 10/10 build.
Yeah but I had to keep street tires on (Michelin Super Sports, but weather was cold = garbage) or else my rear would've died a lot sooner lol you can see how much it spins by me dropping back then gapping them. A lot of races I can't use the lowest gear because I lose too much ground.
Cops in AZ have been nothing but great to me. There is a video of me running from the cops (unmarked), because he was riding my ass so I did a pull lol he was pissed but saw my veteran plates and we started chopping it up. I left with a verbal warning lol
Love what you did man, I’m in the process of rebuilding a 5.3 I want to put in my Gen. I think I came across your forum about your build on gen coup forums but all the pictures where taken down :/.
I bought another genesis to LS swap and I started a new series on RUclips, as well as a build thread here: www.gencoupe.com/threads/6-2-liter-supercharged-v8-swap-full-in-depth-build-im-baacckkk.782773/#post-4787875
Sick as fuck! Awesome build! Looking forward to the LSA videos! It’s also worth mentioning that the V6 Mustang guy proved very easily why you don’t waste money procharging a V6. What a waste of money.
There were a lot of races before I got a GoPro. Scat packs, Subarus, EVOs etc.. mostly people not knowing there is a LS in there trying to pick on a Hyundai lol nothing better than getting a thumbs up at a stoplight from the car next to me hearing the cam chop at idle! Made all the work worth it.
Damn that cop was cool. I bet if it was I. The other states like Cali or Nevada they’ll arrest u for loud exhaust and “illegal mods” I live in AZ and drive Custom turbo 987.2 Cayman S and cops just watches and not pulling me over . God luv AZ twisty roads and endless long straight roads and cool cops
I get to keep my military Florida plates and I live near an Airforce base so cops don't care lol I've had one ask me to rev it up before. Cops here are cool AF in my experience. Best part about the Florida plate is no emissions.
Dude, your Gen Coupe is badass! I have a 2016 3.8 R-Spec and am wondering what to do once this engine dies after the warranty expires. If you don't mind me asking, how much did the engine and tranny swap cost? It's got amazing power, probably more than I would need. How is it through the turns? I'm assuming it slides around a lot more than before. Liked and Subscribed, awesome work man!
It is kinda hard to put a number on it. 2016 it had a LS1 in it, 2017 it had a LS3, 2018 it has a supercharger on it. I do a bunch of roll racing, I have not road coursed the car so im not sure how it will handle. FWIW, the LS3 is 50lbs lighter than the 3.8, and the T56 is considerably lighter than the auto.
Good info. I've even contemplated putting the Hyundai 5.0 into it but then it becomes a transmission nightmare whereas the LS motors have transmissions to match and it is about the same amount of work and the Hyundai motor is an unknown on reliability. The LS motors are known for reliability and parts availability so that makes the repair scenario better. I guess the handling isn't too hard to nail down once the power is in place, just a matter of setting it up right. What differential are you using? LSD?
Good to know! My 2016 just got totaled, so it's dead. However, I've been looking at some used BK2's So do you mean that it is easier to convert a BK2 with an auto to an LS with a stick shift?
Racepak, use GPS speed or use the signal coming from the LS ECU VSS in the T56 tranny. AC is simple, LS harness wired for it, genesis condenser, LS compressor, custom AC lines and voila, AC. Personally it is weight savings and a winter in AZ, so I may not run it til summer if at all.
@@LS3_LaFlare that genesis coupe you had was legendary. Wish you still had it. Just bought me nea bk1 2.0T and I’m already thinking of doing an LS swap. That colour exotic.
just cracked my topmount mani on my built 2.0 5858 precision. About the 3rd time this has happened im thinking of swapping to an LS motor how much labor and money am i looknm at ballpark? Also id love to twin turbo like a motor like yours and see how it runs or a procharger. I just love our platform. Mine sits in the drivewat till i find a new mani smfh
Depends on what goals you want 500whp N/A or less? Boost via S/C or turbo? Location location location and luck... A lot of people think I'm rich but nah, I sold my old engines and such to fund the new, mixed with some luck.
Rafakel Rodriguez it’s not covering anything, the OE cluster was removed. It displays pertinent info like oil pressure, coolant temps, even boost (when I went LSA). It’s called Racepak, the shift lights are great!
The pain was the kit was useless in 2016. Myself and a handful of others fixed the kit via feedback to enjuku. That was a pain because it was my very first build and the first time I was into cars. I was a noob. I didn't even grasp the concept of putting AN fittings together haha. I don't remember the cost as this genesis saw three different configs (LS1, LS3, and supercharged LS3). It all runs together lol expect to spend 5-10k depending on labor, prices, NA/boost(?), and a bit of luck.
I swapped so many cars now that numbers run together. Set yourself 5-10k depending on luck, labor, access etc... One thing I hate is that my preference of using LS3s made everyone think they need one! A 6.0 iron block is a 1/4 of the price of a LS3 and just as capable! Food for thought... will save some dollars
Hard to say - remember I went LS1, then LS3, then supercharged LS3. Transmission was a Tick level 2 t56 good for 600wtq. I would say around 10K for the gen as configured in this video. I DO ALL MY OWN WORK!!!----- That is the key to keeping costs down.
First, there is no kit that boasts 509whp. Bk2 3.8 is 420ish, even less with a BK1. Anybody pushing more has had internal work done and that will get you up to 10k. So costs are the same. Been through this in several back and forths with 3.8t guys in GCO. I'll take the power delivery, reliability, ease of maintenance and head turning bald eagles flying out of my. exhaust every time. I want 509whp I can put a bigger cam in. I want 700whp I can get a LSA supercharger off of a ZL1. There was a LS3 that just hit 1000whp with STOCK bottom end. So the swap isn't the end goal, its just laying the foundation for something bigger. Can't say any of that about a 3.8t.
@@LS3_LaFlare have you seen the Deadpool Gen ?? He is pushing 475whp around 8psi stock internals with the remnant turbo kit and alpha speed tune he is switching up and working with them to push our platform and see how much stock internals can take … and there is one guy in the 500s on stock internals but he has only had it for like 2 months
@@flyboijai14 this comment is 4 years going on 5 years old bro lol advancements and changes in prices aside, powerband is important and we know the 3.8s are ticking bombs if driving how I did in PHX. I don’t even have this genesis anymore lol I’ve driven both. The torque LSx makes cannot be beat by a 3.8T and it’s not close. Just my $0.02 I’m not knocking them but it doesn’t compare in my honest opinion. Cheers.
Enlighten me how it sucks. 6.2 is lighter than the 3.8 by some 50lbs, the auto was replaced with a manual, full catless exhaust etc.. It had coilovers and lighter/wider wheels with 255f/285r and felt planted. What are we comparing it to in the corners..?
GUYS! I am BACK IN ANOTHER GENESIS. I will be building this one on RUclips - L92, LSA supercharger! Started the series on my channel, click on the new playlist to check it out and browse my new build thread (updated daily): www.gencoupe.com/threads/6-2-liter-supercharged-v8-swap-full-in-depth-build-im-baacckkk.782773/#post-4787875
The gray one was my first street race (in Mexico), and my shifting was GARBAGE. I ended up gapping but the race wasn't as close as it seemed. The red one, and black ones... yeah... LOL

Straight dope stuff right there
💪💪💪💪💪

I really appreciate that! 🙏🏾
What all do you need for the swap?
NOOOOOO RACING!!! - nuff said lol
How much would you charge someone for something like this
Depends on location, and if they have a garage (if my garage is full). Much less than a shop for sure.
That cop wasn't bullshiting around lol... Yes sir cop
Ton-O-torque
This build is amazing😍
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
hey bro question after building this do you have ac
AC is easy to set up. Most folks (including myself before I started) overthink the swap before they do it.
What ecu did you use im in tge process of gathering parts but i have no idea what ecu to run or mate with my stock ecu
What engine? LS1 I used a 411, LS3 I also used a 411, then switched to 58x which was an e38, then when I supercharged it I used an e67 ecu.
And I only used the LS ECU, no Hyundai computer.
Custom gauges or did you get it to work with the Hyundai ones?
DJJammyJams you can do either, but the racepak I chose to use since it displayed more important info like oil press etc
Sounds sick
How much did all this cost?
How much did this all cost
How easy was doing the ls3 swap vs the ls1 swap? (Since ls1 is suppose to be easier)
Simply put, it’s the same difference. Same physical dimensions, different displacement.
Nice. Hows the speedo and AC
Racepak, use GPS speed or use the signal coming from the LS ECU VSS in the T56 tranny. AC is simple, LS harness wired for it, genesis condenser, LS compressor, custom AC lines and voila, AC. Personally it is weight savings and a winter in AZ, so I may not run it til summer if at all.
What kind of rims are those?
Avant Garde M510 powder coated Red Velvet
Did u race in Mexico..??
fleiva30 Always 😆
would the automatic transmission 4l80 work with the ls swap genesis too?
Yes, I’m sure it would work if you massaged the trans tunnel some.
@@LS3_LaFlare that genesis coupe you had was legendary. Wish you still had it. Just bought me nea bk1 2.0T and I’m already thinking of doing an LS swap. That colour exotic.
Smoking that lambs would've made me have to have plastic surgery to remove the grin from my face
lmao
just cracked my topmount mani on my built 2.0 5858 precision. About the 3rd time this has happened im thinking of swapping to an LS motor how much labor and money am i looknm at ballpark? Also id love to twin turbo like a motor like yours and see how it runs or a procharger. I just love our platform. Mine sits in the drivewat till i find a new mani smfh
Depends on what goals you want 500whp N/A or less? Boost via S/C or turbo? Location location location and luck... A lot of people think I'm rich but nah, I sold my old engines and such to fund the new, mixed with some luck.
Is it worth LS swapping an automatic 2.0t?
Yes, this blue Genesis was an automatic 3.8. Worth it for sure.
You in az gen coupe? Good work guys. I'd love to do this.
Yeah lol I’m always posting in there. My FB name is Steve LS.
Red bug road and a little turnpike n 408 action. I see u
Masen Brown ....... huh?! This is in AZ.
Florida tag and it looked familiar
Masen Brown Ahhh. Nah, military so I get to keep my FL plates no matter the state I live in.
LS3_LaFlare Gotcha. I was just checking out the video because I have a C 63 AMG and I’m thinking about putting the engine in my Genesis
That’ll be a first for sure!
What mod do you have that’s covering your speedometer? That measures your gear shifts.
Rafakel Rodriguez it’s not covering anything, the OE cluster was removed. It displays pertinent info like oil pressure, coolant temps, even boost (when I went LSA). It’s called Racepak, the shift lights are great!
Hey so wat is the navigation system that you’re using cause I’m in need of one?
Shanic Agard Lol it’s the stock navigation. It’s a track model, comes loaded.
My man, I own a BK2, and this is my dream. I hate to ask, but how much did this cost around? And was it a pain, or surprisingly simple?
The pain was the kit was useless in 2016. Myself and a handful of others fixed the kit via feedback to enjuku. That was a pain because it was my very first build and the first time I was into cars. I was a noob. I didn't even grasp the concept of putting AN fittings together haha. I don't remember the cost as this genesis saw three different configs (LS1, LS3, and supercharged LS3). It all runs together lol expect to spend 5-10k depending on labor, prices, NA/boost(?), and a bit of luck.
About how much did all this cost, I’m in the process of putting a LS3 and I know it’s gonna be expensive but how much was this around.
I swapped so many cars now that numbers run together. Set yourself 5-10k depending on luck, labor, access etc... One thing I hate is that my preference of using LS3s made everyone think they need one! A 6.0 iron block is a 1/4 of the price of a LS3 and just as capable! Food for thought... will save some dollars
Sounds nasty!
This is fucking freshh
What gauge is that?
just Houston Racepak
Did you use the stock ecu ?
Gregory Richardson No, LS ECU only.
Procharged V6 mustang. Lmao. What is the point?
Never heard of a boosted v6…? People boost gencoupe 3.8s all the time. Across any platform Lol and it’s actually a drag car running low 10s nowadays
Total cost????????
Hard to say - remember I went LS1, then LS3, then supercharged LS3. Transmission was a Tick level 2 t56 good for 600wtq. I would say around 10K for the gen as configured in this video. I DO ALL MY OWN WORK!!!----- That is the key to keeping costs down.
did u use a stock rear diff or did u swap it
Stock rear, 4th LSD bolt, stock axles... my saving grace was using street tires and doing rolls only.
God Dam!
shit for less money u could of put a turbo that boosts 509 whp cheaper than the motor swap...
First, there is no kit that boasts 509whp. Bk2 3.8 is 420ish, even less with a BK1. Anybody pushing more has had internal work done and that will get you up to 10k. So costs are the same. Been through this in several back and forths with 3.8t guys in GCO. I'll take the power delivery, reliability, ease of maintenance and head turning bald eagles flying out of my. exhaust every time. I want 509whp I can put a bigger cam in. I want 700whp I can get a LSA supercharger off of a ZL1. There was a LS3 that just hit 1000whp with STOCK bottom end. So the swap isn't the end goal, its just laying the foundation for something bigger. Can't say any of that about a 3.8t.
@@LS3_LaFlare have you seen the Deadpool Gen ?? He is pushing 475whp around 8psi stock internals with the remnant turbo kit and alpha speed tune he is switching up and working with them to push our platform and see how much stock internals can take … and there is one guy in the 500s on stock internals but he has only had it for like 2 months
@@flyboijai14 this comment is 4 years going on 5 years old bro lol advancements and changes in prices aside, powerband is important and we know the 3.8s are ticking bombs if driving how I did in PHX. I don’t even have this genesis anymore lol
I’ve driven both. The torque LSx makes cannot be beat by a 3.8T and it’s not close. Just my $0.02 I’m not knocking them but it doesn’t compare in my honest opinion. Cheers.
Is this the 3.8 track?
6.2 track lol
Enlighten me how it sucks. 6.2 is lighter than the 3.8 by some 50lbs, the auto was replaced with a manual, full catless exhaust etc.. It had coilovers and lighter/wider wheels with 255f/285r and felt planted. What are we comparing it to in the corners..?
GUYS! I am BACK IN ANOTHER GENESIS. I will be building this one on RUclips - L92, LSA supercharger! Started the series on my channel, click on the new playlist to check it out and browse my new build thread (updated daily): www.gencoupe.com/threads/6-2-liter-supercharged-v8-swap-full-in-depth-build-im-baacckkk.782773/#post-4787875
bro help me with my Geneyy!!! lol shit
What you need??
@@LS3_LaFlare i need to learn what you know. lol i just got my genesis coupe so upgrades are comming slowly
Gapped that mustang like it was nothing
The gray one was my first street race (in Mexico), and my shifting was GARBAGE. I ended up gapping but the race wasn't as close as it seemed. The red one, and black ones... yeah... LOL
