K&N Press Release – Release More Power From Your Genesis Coupe 2.0 Turbo!


The Hyundai Genesis Coupe models with 300+ horsepower V6 engines may get the majority of the media coverage, however, it’s expected that half of all Genesis Coupe sales will be models equipped with the sporty 2.0L turbo engine.
The Genesis Coupe’s 2.0L turbo engine was developed out of a cooperation effort between Hyundai, Mitsubishi and Chrysler. The Genesis Coupe’s 2.0L turbo engine is essentially the same engine found in Mitsubishi’s legendary Lancer Evolution cars.
2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe models are highly capable machines. However, K&N engineers are constantly in pursuit of more power. After looking under the hood, K&N engineers knew that, with their expertise, these cars were capable of more.
K&N intake 69-5302TTK replaces the intake tract with a textured black powder coated mandrel-bent aluminum intake tube and a K&N High-Flow Air Filter for high air-flow delivery. The 69-5302TTK incorporates a heat shield custom made for the Genesis, which retains use of the factory fresh air inlet, and helps to isolate the air filter from warm air under the hood. This intake system provides improved performance you can feel.
The result of this hard work and enthusiasm for performance is an estimated 7 extra horsepower at the wheels. K&N’s Research and Development Department tested a 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe with a 2.0L turbocharged L4 engine on our in-house dynamometer. Results showed horsepower increases throughout the RPM range with an estimated horsepower gain of 7.05 horsepower @ 4,000 RPM! Equally important is the extra 9.27 lb-ft of torque this car picked up at 4,000 RPM.
This air intake system uses a conical shaped, carbon fiber top, High-Flow Air Filter, part RP-4600.  The filter captures harmful particles, provides high airflow, and long service life. This K&N air filter performs for up to 100,000 miles before service is required, depending on driving conditions.
For increased service intervals, K&N intake 69-5302TTK can be used with K&N Precharger filter wrap, part number 22-8036PK. Precharger filter wraps are made from a durable polyester material containing uniform micron openings which will stop small dirt particles; yet add little restriction to the airflow of the air filter.
69-5302TTK is a complete system which takes about 90 minutes or less to install with common hand tools. It uses stock mounting points, requires no drilling, and is covered by the K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty.
