How much quicker is the 2.0T Sonata versus the 2.0T Genesis? I know the Sonata has alot more HP and Torque, but doesnt it weigh alot more than the Genesis, which would make it kind of an even race? Also, the Sonata's dont come with a manual tranny, right? It seems like it would be an even race, but once the same Sonata engine comes in the next Genesis, then I think it would beat a Sonata pretty easily. What do you guys think?

 

Stock for stock I think the 4dr is a little quicker.

 

Sonata turbo is around 3350-3400 lbs. GC turbo is 3300-3350 lbs.

 

Sonata also can come with a 6sp Manual!

 

^- not the turbo version. The none turbo 6spd = sucks.. bad.

 

O I didnt know that, thought for sure there was a T-6sp! lol guess I was wrong again!

 

The Sonata Turbo RAPES the 2.0 GC. I've already seen it happen 3 seperate times.

 

Ive raced both a 2.0 and 3.8 with my Sonata. The 2.0 didnt have a chance, and the 3.8 was pretty even with me. All I have done is a front mount, HKS BOV, AEM filter, and a Midas Special downpipe and exhaust with free flow muffler.

 

Raced 2 of the 4 cylinder GC's this past weekend. They couldnt keep up and they were actually modded too. My turbo is completely stock.

 

Awww you guys are making me want to race now just so I can beat it and laugh at them





off topic though, I didnt realize there were a few other turbo sonata owners here. Makes me feel special knowing there's a good group of you guys here.
