Beyond Redline has taken apart the exhaust manifold and turbocharger assembly from the 2.0T Genesis Coupe. No surprises here, a typical log manifold with a rather small TD04-based Mitsubishi turbocharger. One interesting thing to note is the BPV is mounted right on the compressor housing, similar to what is done on the SRT-4 Neon. Disappointing though, on a car with double digit mileage they had problems removing the fasteners without breaking anything.

The factory fasteners leave a lot to be desired. The turbo-manifold studs and the cat to turbo studs stripped out and needed to be replaced. Not exactly what we were expecting after only putting 95 miles on the car Needless to say we ordered new ARP hardware for replacement to prevent this from happening again.

Again, AMS Performance spares no effort, and wastes no time in putting their 2.0T Genesis Coupe under the knife. This time, they have the Genesis Coupe on a lift, and they examine the exhaust system in detail. The exhaust system is made out of 60mm (2 3/8″) piping, with a neckdown to 45mm  (1 3/4″) near a crossmember. Plenty of room for improvement. One good thing to note is that the O2 sensor is before the catalytic converter – there is no post-cat O2 sensor. This means the car isn’t going to throw a CEL when a catless exhaust is bolted on.

We had a chance to get the Coupe up on the lift today to explore designs for the AMS Gen Coupe exhaust. The factory exhaust leaves a bit to be desired. The exhaust is approximately 2 3/8″ OD (60mm) and is even crushed down to 1 3/4″ to clear the factory body brace in one spot.

Looks like Greddy is hard at work prototyping new exhauset kits for the Genesis Coupe. With the sleek look of the Genesis Coupe and the nice dual exhaust cutouts, we can begin looking forward to clean looking quad tipped exhausts, like the picture above.

Exhaust prototyping continues… Especially in the Genesis Coupe line. Here is a little sneak-peek at another one of our exhaust prototype samples. This time in a quad tip Spectrum Elite style. We have a few more options to look at, but this one looks promising too…

Personally, the fact that the rear valence has two cutouts should mean that you should put on a dual exhaust, but I think this looks pretty decent. Tanabe has always put out great high-quality pieces in the past. Just can’t wait to see the Medallion Touring version of their exhaust! The car in the photo is a 2.0T model.
