yeah, you kinda have to feather it as you’re decelerating. The higher the rpm, the louder and more frequent the backfires will be. That being said with stratified it won’t backfire under 2500rpms.
Brayton Willerval yes the low torque. A lot faster than stock. Feels like a whole different car. I don’t have dyno numbers yet but it keeps up with alot of the american v8’s out there. Plus the backfires with the tune are sick
when I was having issues with the EPC light and limp mode it ended up being my intake manifold. The old style intake manifold has an issue with the manifold runners, luckily it’s covered under the Volkswagen extended warranty.
Looks like you’re in the Pittsburgh area. I live in moon township right next to Robinson township but I’d love to meet up sometime and maybe ride along in your car to see the difference between mine. I got an apr stage 2 tune on my Gti and it feels good but I want pops and bangs. But yeah I’d love to meet up sometime and check it out.
jared rummel when you purchase the tune you specify which modifications are done to your vehicle so you can get a custom tailored tune. If everything is solid on the car I would highly recommend a tune from stratified!
@@cartermaneki thanks dude you seem like you know exactly what your talkin about haha so i thought id ask. do you know if there is there a tune solely for the crackles and pops not necesarily for the power increases?
jared rummel with stock equipment on the car just having a 91 tune from them would likely give you a little more power but also let the car operate more smoothly and healthily. However, most of the pops and crackles come from a deleted catalytic converter, so if you get the tune and have the stock cat, likely the pops and crackles won’t be too impressive unfortunately.
Carter Maneki i have been looking into downpipes, would i get crackles and pops from a high flow cat, i dont know if i want to deal with the smells w no cats. Also does the stratified tune correct or readjust for the cel that will probably come on.
an absolute blast, well worth the extra couple bucks for the additional fuel type. Only downfall is having to do some quick math at the pump to get the blend right, but Stratified sends you a calculation table to make your life easier
Luciano Messina definitely adds sound when coupled with an intake. This thing sounds like a semi truck when you lay into it. Might reduce lag a little bit, hard to say. And on paper it adds power, but I don’t have dyno sheets to back that claim up.
Carter Maneki I have a full turbo back exhaust and it sounds ridiculously loud lol. I kinda just want that turbo muffler delete now cus I feel like I can’t hear my turbo at all, even with my intake and upgraded DV
Luciano Messina I definitely feel that it’s well worth the money. I’m also running significantly more boost than stock, so that contributes to the sound. On the mk7’s the turbo muffler delete is pretty straightforward, but on the mk6 it’s not the easiest job.
Andrew Calvillo it has a hollow cat shell on it (I purchased the downpipe with the cat, but hollowed it out, so it’s effectively catless) I did this so I would pass the yearly state inspection for pennsylvania.
So I just got a res, muff and cat delete on my mk6 and was thinking about getting a Cobb tune do you think I could get loud pops and bangs running stratified tune?
@@tfuntoy I did dynos for off the shelf stage 1, 2, Stratified Protune stage 1, and Stratified Protune stage 2 with proper "ECU learning time" between each change. Stratified Protune Stg 1 is best bang for the buck. Protune Stg2 was marginal gains given the added cost and you can't feel it but can measure it. Anyone who tells you they can feel the PT stg2 difference is full of shit. They can hear it and maybe feel the bass from the deeper exhaust equating this to be faster. But no way they can feel the car moving faster. But it's definitely measurable.
Great info. thanks I am on COBB stage 1 high boost for sometime and considering PT do you think I can feel the different? But I am only having drop in Cobb high flow air filter and everything is stock. Weekend I am going to install gfb dv +
@@tfuntoy yes, like I said, PT stg1 faster than OTS stg2. PT stg1 to PT stg2 is not feelable, only measurable. No feelable difference between any cold air intake vs K&N stock intake with snow guard removed; again, only measurable.
That backfire in the tunnel probably scared the hell out of everyone. Good work bro.
“your epc light came on” 😂
are you running a bov? on the website it says the pop crackles might not work with vent to atmosphere blow off valves
Thanks for the recap! Do you know if 91 can be mixed with E85 to make E30?
Use a ethanol calculator online to see the mix to make e30
Is E-30 okay to run with out any after market fuel injectors or anything I don’t wanna mess my car up??
E30 is 100% compatible with the stock fuel system, only thing required is a good quality tune!
Bruh is that a focus st exhaust?
Dusk Rider yes :)
Just got my stratified tune yesterday, do you tap the throttle whenever you want it to backfire? Sometimes I can't get my car to do it on deceleration
yeah, you kinda have to feather it as you’re decelerating. The higher the rpm, the louder and more frequent the backfires will be. That being said with stratified it won’t backfire under 2500rpms.
Thanks, good to know
How do you mix E30?
I doubt you’ll see this but you chose the OEM clutch (low torque) option correct? What’s the power out put like on it
Brayton Willerval yes the low torque. A lot faster than stock. Feels like a whole different car. I don’t have dyno numbers yet but it keeps up with alot of the american v8’s out there. Plus the backfires with the tune are sick
@@cartermaneki how long did your stock clutch last?
Hey carter what do you do when your epc light comes on? I keep having this issue
when I was having issues with the EPC light and limp mode it ended up being my intake manifold. The old style intake manifold has an issue with the manifold runners, luckily it’s covered under the Volkswagen extended warranty.
Da ting goes skraa!!!
Do you think you can possibly help me get a stratified tune??
sure! I’ll do my best to assist you, go ahead and shoot me a DM over on Instagram: @notanrs

do you think it is a bad idea to get the stratified tune on a stock mk6 gti with only a cat-back exhaust? the car is 8 years old and has 108,000 miles

How’s the tune on e30 ?
an absolute blast, well worth the extra couple bucks for the additional fuel type. Only downfall is having to do some quick math at the pump to get the blend right, but Stratified sends you a calculation table to make your life easier
Carter Maneki awesome thx for the reply gonna order a tune from them e30 ..
What other mods do you have? Intake? Downpipe?
Luciano Messina intake, downpipe, turbo muffler delete, and rear muffler delete. I also have a video on my channel showcasing the downpipe
Carter Maneki how is the turbo muffler delete? Interesting in getting one. Does it add sound or power?
Luciano Messina definitely adds sound when coupled with an intake. This thing sounds like a semi truck when you lay into it. Might reduce lag a little bit, hard to say. And on paper it adds power, but I don’t have dyno sheets to back that claim up.

Only 18 pounds on stage 2 cobb?
I got 19 on average on stage 1+
@@tallboiturbos6487 I’m running stage 1+ right now and every pull peaks at 20-20.5 lbs which I thought is very high for cobb
is your downpipe catless?
Lucas Ward yes, video on that here: th-cam.com/video/aENLv4ZAuRI/w-d-xo.html
Carter Maneki I thought you said catted?🤔

Stratified Stage 1 Protune is faster than the COBB Stage 2 off the shelf tune. Ask me how I know...
How do you know?

@@theclutch19 would u recommend a downpipe(carted or decatted) for pt stage 1 for more gains or would that only make a difference if u have stage 2?
And do I need to have an aftermarket intake for the tune
Brayton Willerval when you order the tune you fill out a form and put what mods you have done to the car
Oh shit you’re from Pittsburgh, we gotta meet up sometime. I just bought a mk6 gti. Check out my IG: @AdamEatsTrees
