The 2.0T models are going to be dogs in stock form at that wieght and if they only really make the rated HP. It's like the power to weight ratio of an NA Supra or SC300.
All 4 cylinders can get the brembos, LSD, sport suspension, and 19's as an option package. The R-spec one just gets rid of crap to lighten the car. I think it has cloth seats, no 10 speaker radio, no HIDs, etc. Maybe even a few less airbags?

Eh as for being a dog, they still get 30mpg. So thats kinda what I'd expect. Thats where we come in to up the power!
I'd like to see how the manual transmissions are.

I read about hyundai describing their "low boost" engine as being more refined and smoother. They probably kept the boost low to keep the power low so people would buy the v6... It even makes peak torque at like 2000 rpm.

The way Hyundai phrases it as "low boost" engine in their literature makes it almost seem like they are trying to say that you could turn it up.
