LS/SC V. Genesis 2.0T

Had a little run in with a Genesis 2.0T today in Canada. He did a ricer flyby, passing about 6 cars on a busy road, But noticed that i was turning down the same road as him. As I turned I saw him Waiting around the corner. He rolled down the window and asked my mods and if i wanted to run. I said sure after he told me he had a bigger intercooler a BOV and an exhaust(Car sounded mean). He honked a 40, and jumped a half a car. By about 85 we were even and I pulled ahead around 100, when I shut down.It Was a solid race, I didnt think i standed a chance. But thoes are really nice cars.

Enjoy!

His had to be tuned. Stock they run a low 15. So a bolt on manual 2.2 would beat one.

Who knows. All I know is that he did not anticipate me beating him. He did not look happy.

The 2.0 genesis is kinda slow honestly. The new one should be a lot better, but they made it ugly.
