Beyond Redline has taken apart the 2.0T motor used in the Genesis Coupe with some nice pictures. As expected, the block is sourced from the 4B11, the motor used in the new Lancer Ralliart (not to be confused with the 4B11T used in the Lancer Evolution X). [EDIT: Please read the update above, this engine, while related to the 4B11 is not the same block]. It looks like it has a beefy crank and stout rods with a 86mm\86mm stroke and bore, making it a square motor which is great for high revving madness. Beyond Redline expects 400whp at around 8000 RPM an easy goal with supporting mods but an otherwise stock block. With piston oil squirters it also looks like it will be very tunable to produce plenty of power. One disappointment is that it is an open deck block. High boost can possibly warp the cylinders into ovals, so for high power applications the block may need some reinforcement called block guards to reinforce the cylinder walls. The tradeoff is better engine cooling and the possibility to tune the engine more aggressively with less boost to make more power. Compare this to the 4B11T, which has a semi-closed deck with supports all around the cylinder.
Very formidable engine, but sign me up for an EVO X. good find.

Iam assuming your able to prop the 11T bottom end up to the head of the motor.
If so the stock 11T can hold 600hp then some.

Just to clear things up though. Hyundai actually designed the block for the world engine. They didn't use mitsu's design. AEM found out that the stock injectors are TINY and max out really early. I think they are a little smaller than 330cc. We know that we need two things to make big power on this engine. Those two things are boost and injectors.
