I think for being the "R-Spec" more "performance"-specific model, they sure as hell are lacking on HORSEPOWER.
GEEEEEEEEEEZ.....for a turbo 4 cyl, 210 is a joke! You're talking roughly 180 actual RWHP. That's just crummy, IMO.
I suppose once the aftermarket availability opens up more for the Genesis to include, but not limited to: turbo manifolds, upgraded/modified ECU's, and various other piping/plumbing kits...then it will be worth it.

Ballerness is like butter you just can't blob it in one place you got to spread that shit around
how about this to wet your whistle?
the ecu's with the car is so easy to crack. hyundai has already stated they made the car like that so it would be open to being modified.
210bhp is factory rated. i say with an upgraded front mount and a good tune. you could see the power somewhere around 300hp. hyundai wants the car to be modded. they want to see what other people can do with it. hence the ecu being easy to tune. a lot of companies like the other guy stated, have parts for the car.
edit, thats just with the 2.0t base model.
there's a RRM timing module waiting to be released after SEMA. Word is this little bugger add 34hp/30lbtq. 2 Genesis 2.0 have it installed and they cant stop talking about it. The ECU Reflash from PowerAxel, is nuts. Some have recorded on dyno getting 207whp/257tq STOCK to 231whp/312 with supporting mods. To me Hyundai made the Genesis like shit so you can play with modifications. Who cares if it's slow from factory? Have you seen how much room you have to play in? The engine bay was made for V6 not a 2.0 so you have this huge gaping space where the turbo is.
