Hello, My name is Bart im from Poland, nice to meet you all.
I Havent got genesis yet, im searching for my next car in this country, when i found one 2013 2.0 turbo 8 at, its slower than other cars like that, have weird engine sound and 8 secs 0-60 times. On Dyno it have's 220 hp, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qaI5NDdlHVc you can see on a video its very slow for a car like that.

If you're concerned, I'd skip on this and look for another one. Yes, the car sounds a little funny.

It could also be slower, especially if the car has not warmed up yet. The car (stock-wise) needs to be around 160-170 degrees for it to reach full boost. It's a safety measure Hyundai put in, so you won't destroy your engine by punching the car when it's still cold.
