Nice, I think I shall buy a Genesis 2.0T for my next car. Do they all come with Brembo brakes or just the 2.0T with the premium package?

Yeah, I've test-driven both the 2.0T Track and a 3.8 Track, both with the 6-spd manual. Both amazing, but I'd jump on the 3.8 in a heartbeat. Greddy is already developing a supercharger kit for the 3.8. biggrin.gif And after building/owning both a turbo project car and a supercharged project car, I'm a much bigger fan of a nice big supercharger...I love being able to jump on the gas at any RPM and get that banshee-whine and a swift kick in the butt...I'm too impatient for turbo spool-up, lol.

I think I'm gonna save the money I was gonna spend on my intercooler and my NorthStar throttle body, clean out my garage and sell all of my aftermarket parts, my old engine, etc.; build/sell a few more upgraded transmissions for W-body (Grand Prix, Regal, Impala, Monte) guys; tune more cars....and save up for a nice FAT down payment on a 3.8 Track 6-sp. manual. shift.gif Not sure what color, though, that Nordschleife Gray is hot, but I really wanna see a Mirabeau Blue in person before I could make a decision...

ugggh....i want one SOOOOO bad!!! So upping the stock boot from14 t 18 psi yield about 20 hp to the wheels plus bolt ones...not bad. I say a nice ECU reflash and raised boost this car can easily hit the 250-275 whp mark...with bolt-ons of course.

With a MBC at 18PSI, new turbo, and new turbo back exhaust they hit 344whp.
