LMAO.
ok guys im sorry for this but i was reading over the thread which was closed to ridicuolouse fights and over extension aboout how tiburons and hyundai sucks and mitsubishi is better and all this....
heres the thing since hyundai started off back in the 70's till now its been using mitsubishi engines. yup.
the 2.4 is the same as the spyder and montero aswell as the galant
the 2.0 dohc in sonatas is ...yup u guessed it the famed 4g63 from the vr4 galant /evos all around/ and famed gst eclipses and tsi eagle talons.
thats how come u have supercharged and turbo tiburons aswell as the twin turbo 6 cyl tiburon.
same engine as the 3.0 or the 2.5 twin TT in the later vr4's
i mean identical motors. all interchangable parts. just ecu rarely wiring, and intake manifolds.
;) ;)

You're completely wrong.
When Hyundai first started selling cars in the US it's true they did use Mitsu engines, for example in the first-gen Elantra ('92-'95). Mitsu basically gave them their old engine casts and dies, which accounts for many of the quality problems Hyundai initially had. Mitsu basically gave them the parts that weren't much good anymore or had alignment problems etc.
Hyundai started developing it's own engines, and now uses mostly it's own. The 2.0L is called the Beta, as the first engine they developed was the Alpha. The 2.4L in the Sonata is a Theta and the 2.7L in the Tiburon is a Delta. The only engine that isn't completely Hyundai anymore is the so-called "World Engine" that it developed with Mitsu and Chrysler, which Mitsu uses in the new Evo, Chrysler uses in the Dodge Caliber, and I believe Hyundai will use in the upcoming Genesis coupe. Every other engine Hyundai has right now (3.3L, 3.8L, 4.6L V8, 1.6L etc) are proprietary Hyundai engines (IE: Hyundai developed them, nobody else).

good info
i had noticed this in some of their newer engines that resembled alot of mercedes styled electronics
and their new 2.4 DI 200hp
and the 2.0 turbo 6spd BASE model
their still the same thing as mitsus just fully overhauled internally, think of it as an off beat evoultion. im even thinking i like em better now than the original mitsu motors cus they focus on every aspect of their line unlike mitsu who oly focuses lately on the EVO platform leaving all else to crappy soccer mom status.
and this i guess goes to mitsu America cus new zealand and other areas still got somewhat a foot hold, but towards luxury and practicality
