Car:
2013 genesis r spec 2.0 mt with k&n typhoon intake, megan trans mount, faulty shifter knob replaced.
Shipping:
I ordered the extra ecm so i could swap back and forth if need be. It took right at a month to get here. The odd thing is that i got it directly from korea, so its hard to figure how BTR could have tuned it? Makes me wonder.
Install:
5 minutes, 6 bolts and one nut. U need a 3/8 impact gun, 10mm socket and a extension
Start up:
Check engine light was on immediately. Cleared the code and hasnt been back since. Probably because i didnt discomnect the battery.
Driving:
The part that makes me know its been tuned is that i can generate boost at engine cold temps now, so i know its been modified. People on here say its night and day...not really. It feels peppier in the mid range, the shift points are extended, which is fun. However, i still cant get the rear tires to budge from 1-2 shift. They will bark as they did before, but i was hoping for some sideways action. Maybe im asking for to much from a 19 inch sticky tire though.
The car does feel like it did when i first bought it now though. That oh damn....this thing is quick feeling. I have a feeling very soon, i will be back to wondering, what happened to all that power? The illness will persist. Possibly a ls1 swap will satisfy the urge?
I am now done with my engine performance till the warranty is up in 2023. The car is stout. I may do some suspension tinkering and maybe work on these "brembo brakes" that just can't take more then two laps without disappearing.
