The intake tube has a large restrictive metal muffler installed in the middle of it. If I remember correctly, it necks the inlet down to around 2" in that spot. The good thing is that it is easily replaced with a piece of tubing. I am not sure if you will see HP gains from deleting this on a stock car, but it will eventually be a restriction as mods progress. The intake also has a large capped off bung on it that looks as if it was designed for a recirculating BOV. I have already noticed oil in the intake tube. I have 200 miles on the car. A catch can for the PCV system will certainly be needed to prevent oil from coating the inside of the IC piping and intercooler.
This worries me just a little bit for the people that don't know anything about boosted aplications and purchase the turbo coupe.
For some reason i see a couple too many trade-ins or returns because of oil gunking up and causing problems when a simle catch can would suffice.
I put a catch can on the jetta and the results are disturbing..

I've been seriously thinking about getting one as my next car. Seeing that AMS is already on it and that they are giving it some decent reviews just makes me want it even more. I'll need to see one up close though, cause the pictures aren't really doing it for me but like everybody says, this thing is so much different when ur looking at it in real life.
A jetta is simply disturbing....regardless of anything else in life.
Is this a RWD car? If its FWD, it'll only be a matter of time before we see a post about "wrecked genesis turbo swap into my elantra-accent?"

genesis is rwd...no swaps going on here int his car
i wanna know how long before someone drops an LS1 in it
I'm damn tempted to look into a genesis coupe for sure
Its gonna be tough to stick to my plan of waiting to get one LOL AMS is probably gonna build a monster
maybe its just me but those numbers dont seem all that great

those numbers are bone stock out of a small turbo with extremely limited boost and tiny exhaust. i'd say 206whp and 247 wtq with just a boost controller is pretty darn good.

All stock...........lol.

To me it's the lower power numbers mixed in with a lousy 30mpg highway that blows big floppy donkey dick.
other then that i'd love it as a dd
they arent mind blowing numbers, but they were never claimed to be for the turbo 4 anyways

I'm not saying the power output it does have SHOULD be higher, i'm saying for the power it DOES the MPG should be a hell of a lot higher.
Cobalt SS - 260hp, 30mpg hwy
Genesis Coupe - 210ish, 30mpg hwy.
notice the problem here? Yes i've taken into consideration that it's RWD vs. FWD, but drivetrain should not make that large of a difference here when there is a 50 hp (give or take 5-10hp) difference in power.
I'm just baffled as to why Hyundai hasn't adopted a version of direct injection for their engine.
since when is 30mpg in a bigger car lousy? Cobalts SHOULD get 30 mpg all day every day
a car the size of the genesis is not expected to get that high
comparing a cobalt to a genesis is apples and oranges, not the same class, not even close
and the funniest part is, the base genesis coupe is LESS than a cobalt SS and the genesis is better built all around!
better built in what way? I can't think of a single thing
i cant wait to piss on these all day at the track, @!#$ joke

you aren't pissing on anyone at the track...that thing can get off the line better then you every day of the week, and twice on sunday, which is raceday, the day that matters!
the genesis is a medium class coupe, priced cheaper then your eco @!#$box. you're losing this battle bad I promise

Why is it that no matter what you drive you think it is king @!#$? Seriously, you can't appreciate a car, and even if you personally don't like it, you just @!#$ all over it like an immature whiny little fat kid in school picking on the smarter, richer, smaller kids.
The Cobalt SS is not gods gift to the automotive industry no matter how much you love, mod, or(piss poorly) race yours.
A RWD will flat out get off the line better, you are not pissing all over them on the track I promise. You can't get off the line to save your life with FWD and minimal aftermarket traction mods available.
It's almost like you are such a pathetic, air wasting human being, that you feel the need to act like your car or whatever other inanimate piece of property you have is @!#$ amazing to make your confidence go up or something. Get over the fact that this car is a good looking, decent performing, and well prices piece of machinery. You can cry all day long about a Hyundai being nicer than your car because you hate imports like a @!#$ 15 year old fanboy, but fact of the matter is......IT IS.
On the other hand....you have other fingers.
