i30 N TCR on sale ;)

In the brochure, I just read that it sports 350PS... I'd love to find out what modifications are made to this engine.. Apparently it's the same 2.0L engine.. Now that would be interesting.. I wouldn't mind that on my N to be honest.. :rolleyes:

I bet your front tires would mind :)

That TCR car is a beast, would also like to know what was changed to reach 350PS.

I think first of all - the milage this engine is expected to last ;) Second - service intervals are probably down to EVERY RACE ;) with much pricier replacement scheme ;)

If I understand the brochure correctly, that's 350 at the wheels ;) So probably closer to the 400 bhp end ;)

"Hyundai knows 210 horsepower in a 3380-pound car won’t astound anyone. It imagines the base Genesis coupe with its 2.0-liter turbocharged four as a blank canvas for tuners and speed-widget makers chasing the young buyers who will be hooked by the turbo’s $22,750 starting price.

One thing is certain: There will be lots of zoom parts available. The 1998cc four is the same basic engine as in the 291-hp Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution, both engines being byproducts of the Global Engine Manufacturing Alliance, a joint venture among Hyundai, Mitsubishi, and Chrysler.

Similarities outweigh the differences, we’re told, between the Evo’s motor and Hyundai’s all-aluminum Theta four with its twin-cam variable valve timing and Mitsubishi TD04H turbo making 15.0 psi. Core components such as pistons and rods should move freely between them, for example. Hyundai’s engine uses a different computer, from Siemens. The software wasn’t intentionally made easy to crack, “but it’s not very tough,” says one Hyundai exec with a wink. That means up to 300 horsepower should be possible without major surgery.

Leave it alone, and the 2.0T with a six-speed manual makes 60 mph in 7.0 seconds and turns the quarter-mile in 15.3 at 92 mph. The throttle calibrations were still rough during our brief drive, so Hyundai decided to withhold full testing until later. The turbo trails the V-6 into the market by a month. Eventually, it’s expected to represent half of coupe sales."
