Nice work and build - well fixed and produced too. I am thinking about a similar upgrade for my 7.5r 310 non gpf. Is this car still running well a year later? Thanks
Looking at the graphs from before and after it looks like 4250rpm is the cross over point. So the question is where do you spend most of your time driving the car? If you track the car then you will feel the benefit of this upgrade, if you daily drive your golf r, especially with a DSG in "normal" most of the time then the stock turbo on stage 2 is probably a better option.
Wrong. It picked up a 100 hp. The difference between the two would be hardly noticable down low but the mid and top range is WAY better. No one drives their car to 4250 bro..... Everyone keeps pulling and the stock turbo is lame AF after 4250.
It's a big misconception that dyno graphs are the whole story, words from the customer behind the wheel of this car says 'The run home was quite undramatic I'm delighted to say. Roadgoing performance is unchanged and it still does over 35mpg' From that, you can take it that Stage 3 has no downside :)
@@TENNESSEETRACKHAWK horsepower is derived from taking the product of torque and rpm and then adjusting with a constant depending on the units being used to measure torque. Saying "it picked up 100 hp" is only half the story, specifically the half above 4250 rpm. Below 4250 rpm, the other half of the story, the car has dropped about 75hp (around 3000 rpm to be exact) I'm not disagreeing with you in terms of overall peak performance, just simply stating that suitability of this upgrade package would be dependant on how the car will be driven.
@@andrewhouldcroft1116 I hear ya and that is something everyone who upgrades their Turbo has to come to terms with but the fact is MOST people roll race their cars these days. I prefer digs cause reaction time is everything but nonetheless rolls are more popular so the mid to top range is where most ppl will want that power but im not gonna lie I miss the super snappy feeling of my stock turbo at times so u have a point.
We sell 100s of the Autotech HPFP kits every month without problems, of course, if you do not follow the install procedure and dirty such a precise part during the installation process then you shouldn't be surprised if you see issues.
@@RegalAutosport less stress on the di injectors as they have a short duty cycle and limited with power potential as your limited with size of the di while port injectors have a better duty cycle and more sizes available ,Lpfp I’d choose a Protec one designed and built in UK with a good basket design.
Very odd way of approaching the tuning, using the method you are suggesting adds a lot of unnecessary hardware, expense and labour time to add more fuel-flow for a the low pressure injectors that are primarily there for low-rpm, low-air-speed. For sure let us know how your build goes on your MK7 Golf R using that method
My golf is different set up producing just under 600 wheel horse power on e85 and I run big port injectors like 1700cc and car idles fine ,yes it does add to the cost but more consistent power and most people lately have been skipping the hpfp upgrade and going bigger injectors and upgraded lpfp but it all comes down to cost and what you want .
Translation: You had to upgrade your LPFP system system because the fuelling requirements of E85 fuel, substantially larger injectors and ≈ 600 WHP. Not comparable to this build Let's not recommend unsuitable upgrade paths for people :-)
Wouldn't a full exhaust system improve it any or is the standard system free flowing enough?
Yes! A complete turboback exhaust would be beneficial

Yes! Still running very well. We have been performing these upgrades since they were released. All running extremely well!

Can you do this with just the turbo ans stage 1 with no additional hardware
Yeah, but performance will be limited
Did you do an in depth video for mine when you changed the turbo?
We did Kai, few weeks ago :)
Stock engine or forged rods and pistons?
100% stock
Any video upgrades for the vw scirocco R please pal.?
Sorry, no videos unfortunately but we do offer lots of upgrades!
He must be into 20k of extras on that car
Guy is LIVING
Would have gone for a VIS pump as it'll last longer
More reliable as well.

Understandably that is not a starter motor... Why remove the transfer box for the turb install? 1:55
That's the way we did it, thank you
@@RegalAutosport totally get that :). Looking to swap mine out soon. Did the starter actually come off
Where can i see when you installing the lsd for just this car?
Our videographer wasn't in the office at the time, so it was missed.
Usability vs high end peak numbers? I'd feel robbed and every day driving is compromised.
just like any hybrid, you swap low-end performance for higher-end performance
I would’ve gone with an upgraded Lpfp and bigger mpi injectors with a better fuel rail and skip the hpfp modification personally.
Why would you choose to do that over the HPFP?

Is this on 93 or E85?
Shell 99 V-Power!
@@RegalAutosport Im guessing thats like a 100 octane? I think E85 is 105
