2009 Rhys Millen Racing RM460 Genesis Coupe Pictures, Specifications, Information

As the Hyundai's centerpiece of the 2009 SEMA Show, Rhys Millen Racing (RMR) fabricated the Genesis Coupe into the ultimate sports car with the mid-engine placement of the award-winning 4.6-liter Tau V8 powerplant. The mid-engine configuration of the RM460 Genesis Coupe and other enhancements create a 500-horsepower street car worthy of taking on any track or road course. The Tau V8 engine replaces the original back seat and maintains most of its original architecture with upgrades to eight individual throttle bodies and a set of JE pistons that bumps the compression ratio to 11.0:1. An engine management system by AEM has been added to speak to the factory Engine Control Unit (ECU) while maintaining all factory dash and gauge cluster functions. A Mendeola five-speed sequential transmission has been mounted to the V8 and tuned for a maximum speed of 182 mph. Suspension will be upgraded with a KW coilover component.
