  • 2012 Hyundai Genesis 5.0 R-Spec 0-60mph Tests | 140,XXX Miles!
    Today I take out my 2012 Hyundai Genesis 5.0 R-Spec for some 0-60mph runs. I hook up dash command and got about 18 useable runs. I tried various methods to try and get the car fastest to sixty. We experiment with launching at different RPM's, enabling and disabling the traction control system, and auto/manual mode for the transmission. For reference is was about 35-40 degrees farenheight and Im running the Firestone Indy 500 Tire, a dedicated summer performance tire. The more runs I did, it seemed as though the tires were warming up and gaining traction better, seeing as the biggest variable in these tests today was the cold road not allowing the tires to properly grip. We managed to get the fastest time of the day which was a 4.84 seconds. Seeing as the fastest time Ive gotten in this car prior and consistently was a 4.8, I would call this test in considerably colder weather a success. Let me know what else you guys would like me to test on the Genesis, I love making these types of videos. Cheers Friends!

    Do you clean the intake valves in the manifold? Those may affect your results. Carbon deposits on the rings of the pistons will decrease compression and hence horsepower. I recommend try CRC Intake valve cleaner and then a BG EPR flush then oil change.
