Yep that’s the one I was forgetting lol
Most of the time you’re right about the intake. But on these cars, the stock intake is actually super optimized, but I wanted wooshy noises so I put a CAI on anyway lol.
I like the stock grille. Without the GTI call outs, it could be just a Golf.
Nice build bro. Fyi oem coilpacks are the way to go, EQT has an article on their website about it
Ya I’ve heard that, but I was getting misfires like crazy with the oem ones. It wasn’t the spark plugs because they were brand new when I was getting the misfires. I switched to the Apr ones and haven’t dealt with misfires since
I'm personally running a stock catback with a catless downpipe and it sounds great sometimes you don't need a 1,000 dollar exhaust set up
I agree! When I bought the car it came with this exhaust on it so I just kept it🤷🏽♂️
These days APR and Revo will give you 300+ stock. But inlet pipe is a great bang for the buck still!
I have a 17GTI S cat delete and mod exhaust and it’s LOUD. Nice vid
Hell ya! Thanks man
Just upgrade DP, Stage 2 e30 tune or pump gas tune, stock location Intercooler upgrade, TCU tune / or Clutch(6mt) and 1 step colder plugs- done.
Keep coil packs and intake stock(upgrade to hi flow filter)
Just seen you on the highway the car sounds amazing 🔥🔥 definitely gotta subscribe
My guy🚘🔥
I just saw your car on the highway it looks 🔥.
@@Peawarof11 appreciate it bro!🔥🚘
great stuff, love the vids. keep it up!
Thank u! Means a lot!
Great setup! I'd highly suggest an intercooler early on when tuning these cars. You can tune without it, but it's better for the longevity of your car.
Agreed
Badgeless grill look is nice, I would blackout the rear badge completely, also you will get a CEL even with a HF CAT DP, you need a stage 2 tune or try a CTS CEL ELIMINATOR / O2 SENSOR SPACER to get rid of the CEL. Sounds nice! How is the drone or does it just sound good while cruising?
Thanks man, I ended up switching back to the oem grill. Ya I had a CEL for a long time at first because of the SAI. I had a block off plate on it and then finally got around to fixing it. Then I got a CEL for the DP like u said and after running multiple different spacers I finally found one that doesn’t throw the CEL anymore lol. I ended up changing the entire exhaust setup and went with the CTS turbo back. It’s a little too quiet for my liking but that’s ok because the ecs muffler delete kit is a direct fit so I plan on doing that eventually. As for the exhaust setup at the time of this video, it did had a good amount a drone. If I was cruising in 6th, it was fine but I’m assuming u also have or once had a gti so u know how hard it is to only “cruise” with these cars lol
haha nice, yeah I am running a 3" MagnaFlow CATback and just ordered the CTS DP with HF CAT, got there CEL spacer as well, hopefully I wont have the CEL problem. No tune yet but will probably go Unitronic stage 1 91OCT and Stage 1 DSG tune. The only thing I am still not sure on is if I should upgrade the IC when I do the tune@@GTInick
@@GStarMan8844 oh nice, ya I wouldn’t drive it too much without the tune but I’m sure u know that. Unitronic is really good, a buddy of mines got a stage 2 gli with their software and he loves it. I can send u a link to the spacer for the DP that worked for me. It should work for u too since we have the same DP but idk. I’ll link it

@@GStarMan8844 I ended up having to stack both for the CEL to stay off…. VW shit I guess lol. They just screw right into eachother
great video!!! of course your ass went to burger king🤣🤣
No heat soak on the stock charge cooler? Definitely a problem for me. Nice send it build all around.
Ya I ran into some heat soak eventually but that's only after doing numerous pulls. Now that the car has a front mount, no more heat soak
I think red is the best color on these cars
I still have under a year left of warranty, should I full send stage 2 with dp/tune?
Lol I definitely would. Just understand that doing any modifications at all increase the risk of things going wrong. It’s been really fun having a modified car but at the same time, it can be a huge headache. If your willing to deal with the possibility of things happening than I say go for it. These are great cars and they can handle ALOT. Just take care of it and it’ll take care of u
Get that thermostat done.
Stock grill all the way tbh
Lol ya I literally just put the stock grille back on yesterday after installing my intercooler. Video on the way! Stay tuned!
Stock grill. The car looks too good as it comes..
An exhaust and stage 1 tube and you can have over 300
Cool, thanks for the view
Will these also work on a 8v a3?
Just saw you bro
🚘🔥
It's called a tune.
If u took 2 minutes to read the title…. It says how to make “300+ hp”. Ur not making 300+ with only a tune genius
@@GTInick Mk7.5 Unitronic stage one tune--297hp. APR MK8 stage one tune--337hp. APR MK7 stage one tune--323hp.
What engine cover is that?

You get zero power from an air intake. I can't believe people still think that with tons of dyno videos proving it.
I literally said u get barely any power. It’s not completely 0 from an intake like ur saying but I didn’t say u get 50 hp or anything like that
down pipe stage 1+ tune i saved you 8 min
U bitchin about an 8 min video…. Ur attention span is that bad? Why even comment? Lol hatin ass
Another VW vid with a host that is wasting my time, your time.
Why not buy a used R?
Hmmmmm….. maybe cuz I don’t have a golf r……. and this video is geared towards people who have a GTI…… Jesus fuckin Christ🤦🏽♂️
Or just put the is38 in the GTI..the r is not that special lol…only the awd makes a difference and it’s still front drive oriented. GTI is the faster highway runner if you put the same turbo and sit them next to eachother fyi lol.
Putting an is38 in my mk7 GLI
@@rashenry4675 well said
@@GTInickSame thing with the s3’s/a3’s, why bother with an s3 when you can get an a3. There’s a few internal differences, but it’s not much from what I’ve seen.
