520HP Genesis Coupe 2.0T Review! A Hyundai Done Right
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 май 2021
- The Genesis Coupe has become a popular entry level sports car for the masses. With a 3.8 V6 and 4 cylinder turbo offered, most people gravitate towards the V6. However after driving this monster of a 2.0t my entire perspective has changed. This Genesis Coupe with a Precision 6262 single turbo and built internals will surprise just about anybody on the street with its sights and sounds. With fire coming out the back of the exhaust, it's hard not to love this thing.

I can truthfully say I never thought I’d drive a Genesis Coupe 2.0 this fast.
I legit didn't think the 4 cylinder could do this.
Well, a stock one could go that fast if you drive it off a cliff...
Jace and his family have some wonderful rides 🤘🏼
wanna drive a 450whp 3.8T? stock sealed lol
Can you give the guy who this car belongs to some credit
Our time has come Genesis Brothers. We are being shown to the world
The ascension shall commence...
arise from the shadows my brethren
Yeeeees!!!
Hyundai's suck
AYYEEEEEE
So basically youre saying when you hit boost the chassis basically says “What are you doing Step-Turbo?”
Oh. My. Fucking. God. 😂😂😂😂
Sweet home alabama

The Genesis Coupe is when people especially in the car community started to notice Hyundai and now look at where they are now
Still building cars that don’t last long
The genesis coupe walked to the Genesis G70/Kia Stinger could run
@@TheFreekill17 the old cars actually lasted way longer just looked like crap but was way more reliable
@@TheFreekill17 that’s the early and I mean early 90s cars. I seen the early 2000s model lasted 200k plus.
@@TheFreekill17 lol, what brand last long these days? More brands than not are junk.
Those are gonna be underrated classics in the near future
I'm calling it
Yeah. And they look really good. I think people will be starting to notice them more and more soon.
I agree man I’m hopping on the Hyundai Kia train as soon as possible
I. Think people overlook them just because they hate Hyundai , I see tons of video of RUclips rs in cars and coffee and they are recoding pass next to a sick Genesis and they don't even stop to show the Gen
yup had a guy in a brand new challenger pull up to me at the light and told me my 12 year old genesis looks good
Gonna be? They already are underrated tbh lol
It's kind of cool finally seeing these being modified in the US since they are already known as drift missiles and very heavily modified in Korea.
me at the start of the video: where have I seen that wing before?
then David mentions it's a GTR35 wing. that thing sits at the back of that car so comfortably that you would mistake it for stock.
I still can say the 3.8 sounds like a gtr so this kinda makes it funny😂
Yeah it is related but more reliable since they changed the layout a bit Koreans made a Mewtwo out of that engine more reliable than the mitsubishi
There is a 2015 500whp 3.8T Genesis Coupe in my town. That thing is wild.
Brian Paul’s 2.0 makes 700 wheel. He’s on RUclips
Poor town
@@_baller 💀💀💀
That is not the highest 3.8 though. They can get over 600whp.
Bruh we got this LS swapped Gen out here. Shit is insaneeee
Never seen one of these make actual power😂
My thoughts exactly.
Most of the ones that actually make power actually don't show much, and that's the sad part about most Hyundai's
There some actual fast Hyundai's but they get enough attention
There are a couple genesis coupes making 700whp + I know of 2 down here in PR
the three people that i know that owned them blew them up with just exhausts lol. all well under 100k miles. trash engines.
I’m a buddy of the owners son! I’ve ridden in it a couple times, this car is so badass! It’s so cool your reviewing it!
Who built this motor?
@@dustintreiber9851 joetech
The motor was originally built by jotech. Then when I got it it was ready to grenade literally. So my son and I rebuilt the motor 100% new and did some different things to it.
@@dustintreiber9851 My son and I rebuilt it when I got it. Jotech originally did back in 2011.
@@jasonkirklin4163 if you mind me asking who did you buy your parts from?
Gennys seem to be popular to hate on- Like, so many people trash on them without seeming to have a real reason.
I was car shopping a few months ago, and I drove a Genesis 3.8 coupe. It was SO much fun. I liked it better than the Z I drove. The only reason I didn't buy one is because I couldn't find a clean one.
These are good cars.
Nice car don't sleep on those hyundai man.
I slept on it, now want a second gen.
best purchase i ever made :)
@@Foshogi my thoughts exactly😂 never getting rid of my baby
I have a 2011 2.0t r spec the lightest version genesis coupe with around 300 whp and 300 lbs tq. Its definitely fun get compliments on it all the time.
@@jeffreycattelino3996 we got the exact same car and color lmao. I'm waiting for my garrett kit to come in and see how much I can make with this new setup. I'll honestly be cool with 400 wheel
@@xfinessefather the bottom end blows around 350 torque
I'm holding onto a 2010 3.8 Genesis until I have the space to build it out...and man, thank you for this! So much satisfaction in seeing one built correctly, and knowing I'm not totally crazy. Thank you!
I love untraditional builds that make the owner be more creative
Ya finally another Genesis!
I would love too see you review the Bk2 3.8 or even a 3.8T!
I’ll let him run mine once she’s done ;)
I've bought quite a few parts for a 2010 2.0t. My friend has one and I trade parts for his work on my vehicles. His Genesis isn't quite on this level but we've put a bunch of bolt-ons into it. She's a fun ripper for sure.
I love that this sweet looking and sounding Genesis is in Iowa! 😁
David, you're an absolute Legend my man. As a Virginian, (DMV area) also now displaced in the Atlanta region, I await the day I have a car worthy of a TDIB review. I am too broke and responsible to even have a car I like and am proud of. Let alone am able to mod but I hope to one day have a unique car and build that you will help open up more people to. Also I've really gotten into Genesis Coupe's lately. My friend has a sick 2.0 with gold BBSs. And I missed out on a crazy deal for a 2015 3.8 Rspec recently. Either way amazing content and great job nurturing the car community all these years Bro! Salute!! 💯
I appreciate the video. Nice to see the genesis couple being taken to next level 💯.
Ya, so, I've never been aware of shifter bushings that make a trans hold up better to high hp.
Same 😂 major 🧢
Had to scroll and see if anyone brought this up. Thats some serious F&F dialogue.
@@jackslackofsurprise4164 Me too!!!
Don't understand the hate for these cars lol🤷♂️
Same
I don’t understand the hate for a lot of cars Supra guys talk the most shit
@@StockTurboN20 Fast n Furious kids I guess. Not actual Supra owners.
And the brain dead fanboys.
You have cheap really good looking cars that can be modded to be fast no real car guy should hate that.
It's because Hyundai made it that's why. The moment anyone hears Hyundai they got it hate. (Atleast that's how it be in my area)
I bought a 2013 3.8 manual one about a year ago. It's fun as hell, the only thing I dont like is the suspension is tight af but that's not really a valid complaint because it's the r spec version, which is supposed to be sportier but gotdamn I can feel every pebble on the road and shitty U.S publics roads dont help.
I have a 2013 2.0 which is the second gen and it’s a lot of fun. I just got it 5 months ago already have almost every bolt on possible minus new charge piping. And lemme tell you it sounds so good and it feels great. The looks imo are the one of the best if not the best for the price point and the tuneability on these is a lot greater than ppl think
Wonderful video! Love seeing it cruise around town 👌🏼
Just bought a genesis 2.0 for my first car , love itt!!
Finally not a 2.slow anymore!!! Good job
Had fun watching this content, also car sounds great! 🔥🔥
Im financing one Saturday and the intro music to this song has been in my head all day. Feels like the theme to a new chapter when I hear it in my head.
This is when hyundai was getting notice and now the veloster N, kona N and the Elantra N. #KDM⚡️🔥🤯
Don’t forget stinger gt & k5 gt
kdm on the come-up 💪
Overstyled value cars.
@@kc550 still probably faster than ur car bud
@@zach5881 lol calm down little boy. I have a 2014 CLS550 with a Eurocharged stage 2 tune (575hp & 690tq). Heavy car, but guarantee you I'd pull lengths on this crappy Hyundai up top. All while sitting in an air conditioned, massage seat while I do it. Hyundai has come a long way, but it will never be a Mercedes.
The 3.8 sounds like an exotic with the right exhaust
Yeah bolt in it almost sound like GTR. Nice sound NA engine.
And in red they look like a weird super car (2nd generation) One of the best looking normal sport car. For sure
@@SaintMecha sounds better than a GTR ....TO ME
Had a BK2 3.8 and the engine sound was the best thing about it
Had a 3.8 before I got my stinger agency power makes a great exhaust for it that’s the one I had got compliments all the time.
Glad some1 took actually time to mod this platform. Always liked these.
Thanks for the vid! Good tuning for this car is so hard to find so the timing advice was very helpful.
Tuning*
A few years back, I got stuck in traffic, and the car in front of me was an all black
Hyundai Genesis Coupe making some beautiful noises out of it, and ever since then I have wanted one so badly. However, I never even considered looking into the 2.0 before this. If I can’t get ahold of a V6, then I won’t be too disappointed with a 4-Cylinder model, because they can apparently, be solid platforms.
No props to Jotech in Texas who originally built this car.. :-( glad to see this car still around! My buddy is the original owner
The car has been completely gone through and redone. Hence why no mention of Jotech. Not the same build.
I remember I almost bought a 3.8 R-Spec brand new when these first came out. Loved em then and still love em now...
Evo guy here... You have my attention David.
Now I want to see a 3.8 boosted hahaha, that 2.0 looks so tastefully
they blow up if you boost it
A buddy of mine had one of these, He bought the 2.0 exactly for this reason, when He was researching this type of tuner He found the 2.0 had better tuning potential, this car is totally underrated and a great car for under 20k CDN can find quite a few for 10-15k, the car is fun to drive, and still manages to be fuel efficient, I think it got about 30 mpg hwy when driven properly
I have a 2012 2.0t with a racing pipe a cat delete and a larger intake and I still only push about 180 to the wheel. And I’ve looked into it honestly it’s not worth it unless you get the stage 2 which is only for 2013-2014 2.0ts
@@lycr0n1x3180 WHP is pretty much stock, the dyno run I looked at said 184 WHP. With an intake, intercooler, exhaust, and tune, you should be at about 250 WHP. That's what's on my 2010 2.0t track. I haven't dyno'd it but it pulls quite a bit harder and is more responsive than the stock ECU which I still have.
I got crazy lucky and picked my 2.0 r spec up for 4 grand, for the prices genesis coupes go for there really is no competing with it, except for maybe a 350z. They arent very fast stock, but with a simple canned tune, slightly higher boost, and full bolt ons its loads of fun. The aftermarket is still thriving pretty well too so there's lots of options. I'd love to one day finally upgrade from the crappy stock turbo to a slightly larger ball bearing turbo and a custom tune. I've seen guys make around 350 whp reliably on stock motors.
@@johnsullivan937how hard are they to find at this point kinds thinking about this as my next car
Wouldn't build one myself but really respect it that's sick
Not the biggest fan of genesis but this was a good feature; as always excellent and entertaining video
Love it. Underappreciated platform imo. I have BK 2 3.8 and I enjoy it. Light mods until I build the engine.
Brian Paul dropped a video on how to maximize and get the best performance parts for the 3.8 guys like a week or 2 ago on his channel. Should check it out. Definitely will change the car
@@mannyfenix2288 I seen! It's awesome. I have to build my motor first. I'm at 127k on my 13 rspec
It's a POS, I should have just spent a bit more money and buy a used 370
@@carsaregood911 I've had mine since 2013. Put 127k on it, and had minimal issues. Trunk leak from rear tail light seals and had to replace wheel hubs, but other than that she's been great.
So is one engine better than the other
2.0 gang represent
Love how this car looks 💙
I agree , these seem like nice coupes. They always sound good , then run 14s at the track. I may have to pay attention to these on the street now.!!
This my Dream Build
Awesome video and awesome build as part of the Hyundai community I'm so happy to see one of are cars get some actual attention. it's kinda sad in the Hyundai community a lot of the crappie builds get more attention then the actual fast Hyundai's to the point that some people don't think they exist or that they are super hard to come by or build a lot of the time people just cheap out on builds and that's why some people don't see too many fast ones.
Brian Paul had a RUclips channel and literally post nothing but his build that makes 700+ and other builds making good power. Check his channel out
@@seoufulracingsfr6323 yeah I know him he is going rb swapped now
@@rushking19 unfortunately yeah.... wish he would’ve kept the 2.0 engine
@@seoufulracingsfr6323 same was hoping he would of pushed it to 1000whp

Oh well
Didnt know this thing was in dm. Thats pretty cool
CR area
Got the 2010 2.0t R-spec and it's so fun to drive. Definitely catches a lot of eyes with mods I have done.
This is dope
Awww...I missed you being in my area. Never figured you'd be in Iowa! Also, I've seen that car...lol.
Same lol he rolls around cr alot
I drive a black one with barely any mods, because when I do I'm doing similar to the engine but just simple stuffed turbo custom tune slight intake+ mods most people hit around 350-370 with that on 94octane.
These are underrated. Stock BK2 is easy to get well past 300whp for under a grand in mods. If you get an rspec trim it comes with LSD and brembos. They're hard to sell so yes, very cheap on the used market. You can find FBO bk2s for under 10 all day
my rpf1s showed up today for my genesis coupe today lmao the coincidence! lol sick car btw
I wanna see a race between a Cobalt SS, Neon SRT-4, and a Genesis.
LNF ftw
All three are solid but the cobalt is super underrated they have so much features and potential, nothing beats how those srt4’s sound tho!
All 3 with equal power, the neon SRT4 would win. I had the SRT and I’m on my 2nd Gen, the weight difference comes into play big time! The Neon SRT4 ways 2900lbs and the GenCoupe 2.0 weighs 3294lbs with the RSpec weighing 3244. The Cobolt would probably do damage to considering it weights 2981lbs.
Lol that’s my old car! I built it with Jotech Motorsports
Hi Vu! Yes it is! Finally got it all redone! - Jason
Bada** gen coupe 🤙🤙. I baught a 2010 when it first came out. Still got her. Shes my summer ride lol. Theres only a few bk1s here in maine.
I gotta admit if it wasn't for David I wouldn't have been fully convinced to buy one and now I'm a proud owner of a bk1 3.8 breaking necks everywhere I go with the way I built it 💯
Nice to see a built motor on this car done right
other than the gauges that would be lodged into the passengers head in a crash, perfect Genesis Coupe.
SHEeEEee33eEsh 😂 nice genny, it’s hard to work on the early 4 banger ones
2nd generation 2.0T Genesis have the same engine that the Veloster N/Stinger base uses it's better going nuts with power.
No it’s not lol
@@SaintMecha No it isnt?
I’m coming for that Gen, with my 2.0 Gen!!
gorgeous, cheap, turbo, coupe, reliable, lsd from factory, turbo idk why its so underrated.
I ran a gtx3076r @ 24psi on my BK2 for a few years. Now I have a 6.0 w/ an LSA supercharger in it. Biggest reason I didnt just build the 2.0 was because I hated the transmission. It felt terrible and there is like zero aftermarket to fix its issues.
Thats understandable
I got a Coolerworx shifter and Megan Racing Trans mount to fix 95% of my complaints of the transmission. Only problem is the shifter doesn't use bushings at all so there is a lot of chatter. Replacing the dual mass flywheel to single mass flywheel helped high RPM shifts but made it even more noisy. But its my weekend/track car so noise isn't a big deal
2014 trans
@@tommylee4135 I was debating between the coolerworx and the ISR shifters for the longest time. I eventually went with the ISR as there was some black friday sale going on or something for a decent price. I agree, having a chasis mounted shifter and a poly trans bushing has fixed the shifting drastically. I'll still get second gear grind/lockout rarely every now and then, but the shifting feels so much more visceral and connected. They also just look freaking cool. I'd say the shifter, and a canned tune are probably 2 of the most cost effective mods someone could do to the car, that completely transforms it.
Honestly, 400hp for the 2.0t is impressive. I know the v6s make some power but this is cool. Prob feels great, rev happy.
Feeling that 'SR20 vs 2jz 240 debate' type of vibe yakno?
Bk2 is "rated" from Hyundai at 348 but on the dyno more like 280 290 whp
Saw this car at a Cedar Rapids Iowa car show. Looked alright.
I've had a 2010 and a 2013 Genesis Coupe 2.0t and I wish they still made them.
BK1 gang!!!
who’s the owner of this car, i needa build list or something💀
This is honestly why I want you to drive another modded infinite Q50 cause done right and built well you’ll love it I’ll be done soon then it’ll be getting down to you 🥸

Decided between a Genesis 3.8 and G37 myself. Nice to see a 2.0T mudded well. Most around here just have loud exhausts and no tune.

I've had one for 4 years still love the car as much as when I got it and have a bunch of plans and mine should also be making somewhere around 500-600hp in a few years time
I have a huge appreciation for the genesis coupe and I think its an extremely underrated car
To be fair any car with a Precision 6262 and built internals would be impressive
I wonder if this kind of build could be done cheap and become the most bang for the buck in terms of power/fun on the street.
Check out Brian Paul's channel, he has a 700whp genesis coupe he built for around 10kish

3.8 Cadet reporting for duty, Sir!
I remember when these came out and I was so looking forward to a "4B11 based RWD sports coupè" at a reasonable price. Then they became the broke boys Z33, which is also a broke boy car a lot of the time, but I digress.
Nice to see one done well. They have a lot of potential and the few blown 3800s around sound fantastic. Nice car.
Always thought this car had potential.
I’ve always liked these cars. Test drive one new and really liked it.
Except for the stock steering feel.
Is that a Tomei daaahhh?!?(Freshkickks voice)🤣🤣🤣🔥🔥🔥
Time to boost my cyclone since everyone getting fast ☹️
What a great build but it seriously needs a carbon front lip on the front. It looks incomplete. Hopefully the owner had one and took it off for some reason or it’s being repaired from damage. That’s all I feel this beauty needs to be done perfectly.
I just got the new front bumper for it. It is getting painted in a week or so then I'll order a new lip. The old lip was busted up. Thank you for the compliment...
Yeaaahhh gonna need the build list asap
Gotta get you into the 3.8 now. For the mention about the Genesis and 3.8 and "why not get a 370z". It was a decision between the Genesis 3.8, the 370z, and the BRZ and I chose the Genesis 3.8 because for the same price as a 370z it came with 20k less miles and the BRZ had too low of HP. The GTR wing I can relate because on mind I have a Ferrari Asna mid-muffler along with a down pipe and text pipe and it works. The exhaust note has no rasp and I get frequent compliments. Also got a tune and front and rear swap bars because I do autocross. No regrets getting my car as it is reasonable priced for what you get. Thinking about a turbo on it (3.8) but even with that you can only push 6 to 7 psi unless you get forged internals then you are talking $15k+ which I would be more content with a ZL1 Camaro.
My OCD is high looking at that uneven grill.
Awesome car tho
That cut out is for air flow. I was going to buy the straight one possibly. Everyone asks why its made like that.

I have a 2012 Genesis Coupe 2.0T, and I have had so many people think that it's a G35 Coupe or BRZ (it's pretty damn funny). There was this one dude at a tire shop that thought it had a V8 from my muffler delete, then some guy said, "naw, it's a V6," even though it's a Turbo I4. I caught that on dashcam when they had ahold of my car. The BK1 2.0T Genesis Coupes actually have a very deep and throaty exhaust note for a I4. The BK2 2.0Ts are more raspy.
I have a fbo bk2 and I'm doing the engine soon and big turbo they can put good power when its done right
