Assuming you live in the USA-

There is no factory turbocharged 08 Tiburon...or any other year for that matter. I think you must mean the 2010 Genesis Coupe (supposed to be released in 2009) which is rear wheel drive and comes with either a 2.0l Turbo or a 3.8l V6.

If you mean an 08 Tiburon there is a turbo kit available for both the 2.0l and the 2.7l and you can get 300whp out of either engine pretty easily but it's not a factory option and you'll probably have trouble getting Hyundai to honor the drivetrain warranty if you get one installed. It's more common to supercharge the 2.7l than to turbo it.

Either way welcome to the site and enjoy your stay. If you have any other questions post them up!
