GenRacer PWC Car back to the dyno!

We had some boost spiking issues at our PWC event in Limerock
World Challenge is very strict on boost limits and this needed to be addressed before the next event. 

So we trailered the car up to Turbokits.com and met up with Sam at BTRcc to tune the car and get the boost stable. Very good results and the car feels amazing. We will be at Watkins Glenn, NY next week for a NASA race to do some testing. Incar video to come!

*New Item* Megan Racing Manual Transmission Mount - Hyundai Genesis Coupe 10+

As for the motor build, we must run the factory turbo and manifolds. The motors will be stock except for Supertech Dual Valve springs that we are still awaiting from the manufacture.
