4b11t going into new RWD Hyundai coupe

[Speedfreak]

I saw a couple at SEMA.. I like it. It's a lot of car for the $. They are RWD correct? If so, 5 or 6spd/RWD/2.0 turbo/low price point = great recipe.

Sure the 2.0 turbo will be easier to mod, up to the point of what the stock engine can handle (how are the 4B11T's doing in the X's?) after that the 3.8 MIGHT be a decent way to go.

Ryan Gates/BlackTrack is making like 470whp (dynojet) or so on his, and he tracks the damn thing. Stock all the way through, cams and all. He was at OC a few weeks ago, I got a ride

yup, RWD and I believe a 6-speed. These will sell like hotcakes, and the insurance will be through the roof when people start playing with RWD on the road
