The Sad Truth Behind Our Blown S2000
The S2000 finally did it ..... it blew up, but not quite in the way you might have thought. Now we have a dilemma, do we keep the S2000 heart with the F20 and build it orrrr do we switch it up and go with an Ls swap and learn something new along the way. You decide.

Do you have the stock exhaust in this video? If not, what exhaust do you have?
ls swap
Partout
😂 stop trying to sell us on a LS swap and just tell us you’re doing an LS swap! 😂 no disrespect. Love your vids, esp the GTI ones. I have my own mk8.
@@Teh_Monk ok ok ok 🫡😂
My car gave me a brief warning box and I haven’t done that again since then
@@mentalistp.s.9915 That’s interesting, what was the warning for if you remember?
i am at $28k into my datsun z build still need paint and body work, and a new windshield, but everything else is finished. fully built engine with triple carbs
@@3rd-eye-neenja563 That’s awesome I have wanted to do a tripple carb setup in the past ! I definitely wouldn’t be opposed to running one in the future!
In the same town as you. Love seeing the builds coming together when I drive by!
@@brovham3979 That’s awesome thank you ! Feel free to say hi next time you pass by !
Nice car, this is my dream Mk6, in a GTI of course cos that’s what I drive
I just bought a touring edition, im not looking for loudness, just a bit more than stock…. Would you say the touring is bought will be ok?? Im looking for something between loud and stock
I don’t have any experience with the touring so I can’t say for sure , I really like the track setup for me personally it’s just right but I would imagine if you’re just wanting a bit more than stock that should be perfect.
@ perfect, bought yesterday hoping to install it today… lets see how it goes
How is it with the windows closed?
It’s not bad at all , a little drone around 3000 rpm on cold starts but that’s all !
@ bought it and installed it about a week ago…. Love it, i also got the track conversion so might be switching today to see how much louder it is
Do you still have the short shifter in there? I have the holy shift shifter kit but it's still sloppy and miss shifts. Idk if I can add this kit on top of that or if it's best to return to stock.
You would be able to add this on top of your holy shift kit. I do also still have it installed and I do like it over all a very nice unit. It’s kind of a PITA to install and setup but once it’s done and done right it’s awesome.
Daily drove my AP1 in Miami traffic for two years. It wore me down. Ended up getting a VW Passat daily driver.
@@alexg4083 I love my s2000 but it’s definitely just a weekend car for me I have my GTI for a daily it’s definitely more comfortable better on gas for the commute and one hundred percent better for my daughter !
Nice video. This helped answer a lot of questions I had when considering cost to build. Since you did all the work yourself. How many hours of labor did you put into your build? Including, paint, welding, coil over install, etc.
@@laysimaly7234 Thank you for the comment , and I apologize for the late response . I didn’t keep track of most of that , but having done this a couple of times now if I had all of the parts in front of me and could dedicate say a 60 hour work week to it I feel confident I’d be done in about 4 weeks so we will call it 220-250 hours but this is also with the help of my wife. The coilovers I spent a solid 5 hour on cutting cleaning and welding up . I do know a couple companies make kits that don’t require welding they are full spindle replacements. You could say some time there. Paint I’d say four days including bondo prep primer paint and clear. If you have any more specific questions by all means reach back out. I’m glad this video helped you out !
Does the unitronic also pop and crackle like the 034?
@@NickBond007 yes it does , I will say the 034 pops more
Have the 8.5, got it last week. It’s an amazing car. If you can, get the SE for the leather ventilated seats. Wow.
That’s awesome if you get the chance send me some pictures on my Instagram or email !
I ordered and returned the diamond headlights. They were really nice. But the beams were so so far off it was stupid to drive at night. To far to the left and to far to the right. I am looking at these. Hopefully they are good.
@@MrCameljockey1 who did you order from ? I have the alpha Rex ones and they are perfect I love them ! I heard stories similar to yours about the diamond lights but these have a perfect beam and cut off line
@@octane_media ordered from diamond lights website last year. It took forever to get them. I haven't got the ones you have.
For the love of GOD, use jack stands. People who only use floor jacks are asking for something bad to happen.
Just bought this for my Mk8 r . This won’t mess with the sensor for the cruise control right ?
No it has not messed with any of my sensors and I have had it on for quite some time now !
😈 should send me a down pipe for the mk8
@@1slowmk8 I’m trying to get one for my own haha I was lucky enough to learn the process with a subscribers car !
@@octane_media okay make it 2 down pipes then 🤝🏼😂😂😂😂

Hey all im not smart wit cars. I have a 2022 q3 but gas is too much in CA. So i got a vw taos 2024. I am in the process of wanting to buy a gti, gli, golf r MAYBE. Or tiguan/ atlas. My question is should i just go for the speed stock? Or if i get an atlas / tiguan can i mod it to get more speed ? MPG wont matter much since the taos is my daily. OR do i just save and get a better car? I really prefer vw because my luck has proven very well with them. I drive to Az' nevada and may go further from california . Thanks in advance!
You said e60 was the threshold to run the tune, but from what I’ve read you can run stage 1+ + uniflex with any % ethonal you want? You can run it from 93 at the gas station all the way to e85 let me know if I’m correct
@@massimovercesi8288 yes you are correct when I had filmed this I had confused there straight e85 tune with the flex tune.
🔥🔥🔥
Black are much better.
That kid has a wonderful life.
Agree on the AWE track exhaust, I just installed mine yesterday and the drone isn’t that bad at all for the output it has. I like the fact AWE gives you the option to make it a touring exhaust if I change my mind.
Another excellent video. As a 2022 MK8 manual autobahn owner. Your channel is my favorite. I enjoy your presentation style and your honesty.
@@jptinc55 Thank you I appreciate it very much and I do try to be as transparent as possible especially when it comes to helping others decide what’s actually worth getting and spending their money on !
Hey car sounds great how long did you wait to get tuned and what have you done
@@donwhittaker9824 I tuned both of them pretty close to when I got them around 4,000-5,000 miles and I will have a video tomorrow on everything done to them!
Similar install for a MK8 Golf R?
Yes I do believe it would be an identical process!
Just got my 380S a month ago, as my first manual car and I love it. Seats are amazing and the truck space is outstanding. The car provides great balance between sportiness and comfort. All I've done to it is add a clutch stop, bfi shift knob and tints.
Hello "Octane Media" I saw that in your channel have some problems. For these problems your channel is not much growing. Not getting much engagement. If you can solve these problems, Your channel will get more engagement. If you can give me permission I can tell to you about these problems. Can I tell here or email? Okay?
We found it yall, the cure for depression is right there, that smile is everything
I cant wait till me an my kiddo can work on cars together, hes only 1 though so hes a tad smol to be under cars just yet.
She's just happy to be there...

When she gets older...A Kid is going to pull her with just a cool car. And you'll ask yourself, WHERE DID I GO WRONG!?🤣
The answer's worth it.
Why she look like lil big planet
At from this point forward she's a gear head🤙 blessings to you and your family
Your daughter’s smile could end world hunger. God bless you and your family brother 🙏🏽
Yes maam. She is going to be a Honda lover.
That's an expensive s2000 now a days. Resale value is through the roof if it isn't heavily modified.
@@benjam0 it’s not chopped up or anything but it is turbo , I am looking to get new interior bits as I find them it’s missing some things but overall is definitely coming together
merhaba kardeşim vites konsolunu piyano black boyamak için sökmek istiyorum nasıl yapabilirim ?
I agree with everything you said but 1 item. Exhaust. Keep the stock cat back and go to a decent downpipe. Low growls without killing your ears. Very tempted to try the 034 tune. Been loving my stage 2 unitronic. 93 octane file I'm still trying to justify changing the stock suspension but did do a flush mount kit from DAP. Mk8 GTI 6speed base model (2022)
@@wrangler0829 I could definitely see that perspective, I will be eventually adding a downpipe but I will switch to the resonated AWE touring when that happens . I absolutely love my unitronic tune I’m currently on . I’m running their flex kit !
@@octane_media hmmm. I just looked that up. I think I need it now! Been very tempted to try e85. Good call out my dude
GTI is faster/ more sporty which is much more fun to drive. GLI is more family oriented/more spacious at the compromise of maneuverability. If you wanna have fun get a GTI.
This is adorable !!! One day I’ll be a car dad
Very cool!!!!
