In partnership with Hyundai American Technical Center, Rhys Millen Racing, Harman International, Torvec Inc, and Magnuson Products, Hyundai will send a steroid loaded Genesis Hurricane SC.

The technology implemented with the supercharger displays the potential of the V6 engine of the Genesis Coupe . The extra power translates to an increase of 35 to 45% in torque and horsepower which can be further tweaked to juice out more oomph.

We are sure that this Genesis will not just be a display figure with beautiful design lines but also walk the talk on the road.

Aside from the supercharger, the Genesis Hurricane SC is also coming in with an IsoTorque differential that will significantly improve traction and handling. Tested on the track, the improved differential translated to a second shaved off from the car’s lap time.

Looking away form the impressive engine bay, the Genesis Hurricane SC has along list of exterior and interior modifications. RMR provided the exterior improvements giving the car a new bumper, grille, side skirts, rear deck and spoiler, diffuser, hood, exhaust, and air intake. Hankook and Enkei tag teamed to give the Genesis a 19 inch rim and tire assembly.

Inside the car, Lexicon installed a high level audio system. Katzkin gave the seats some suede and leather.

The Hyundai Hurricane SC also has Bilstein shock absorbers that were tuned at the Nuburgring, Brembo brake kit, lightweight flywheel, DeatschWerks fuel pump, and a bunch of stuff to make the car cool even on the toughest conditions.
