I just ordered my AP. After watching your video, I am beyond excited. I have the performance pack so I am looking forward to seeing what a difference it'll be compared to yours in terms of wheelspin.
Good info about Cobb Stage 1. Minor point: all your audio goes to right channel after the intro (for the POV driving stuff)... makes me think my left ear stopped working 😅
Thinking about grabbing a 2021 gti se very soon. When getting harassed about buying extended warranty in the finance office, is it fair to tell them that don't even bother because I'll be tuning the car anyways?
Bro do u have dogbone mod? Apparently that helps stabilize engine rotation under acceleration, thus substantially reducing wheel spin. Love your videos I’m from Chicago and getting a GTI.
@@HumbleGarage I'm running a similar set up on my 2017 GTI, what wheels did you go with? I lost 10 pounds of unsprung weight at each corner and that by itself is a noticeable difference!
Dude wheel spin it’s not good at all... it’s because you have still stock wheels which are 25 lb each and also Oem exhaust ...I completely removed wheel spin ( less traction/power) with lighter rims and a nice Borla cat-back🤙🏻🤙🏻 15lb lighter the Oem muffler!

Low-key on a 1-10 how faded did you get before this fun Lil joy ride? 😁🤙🏻
Flashing my car now. I’m so pumped now
How do you have traction control not kicking in? I can't figure how to turn mine off all the way , cause it still kicks in...

yes I did the same thing haha
@@SuperTater4 just bought a 2018 gti instead of a 2021. Found a 2018 which is still a mk7.5, for an amazing deal with only 16k miles.
@@2wheeldom11 same brother got a good deal
Is your GTI completely stock at this point when you tuned it to stage 1?

What’s the top speed cobb stage 1 ?
Does that ots stage one require a dsg tune you think? Or are you just doing that for your stage 2 plans?
I fuck with this channel!!!!
Do you have a dogbone mount on your GTI? How’s the wheel hop on stage 1?
Do you get knock with the cobb off the shelf maps?
no on 93 octane, I havent gotten any knock.
i have the same paddles!
So the Cobb stage 1 tune is better than the MAperformance stage 1 tune? Just got my accessport yesterday still gotta get my free MAperformance tune
i wonder this as well, seems weird. I know that CO motorsports compared a cobb OTS tune to EQT tune and the EQT blew it away.
which sticky tires do you go with?
Ralph Roman 225/40ZR-18 RIKEN RAPTOR ZR A/S RF

How much knock are you getting with the cobb stage one?
Ralph Roman none on the knock monitor, I will know more accurately when I start data logging and working with a protuner
10:30 I’m dead 😭😭😭😭😭 ahhh heellll na

I weighed my stock wheels w/o tires of course 25.8lbs. I put enkie TS-V on reduced the wheel weight by 7lbs. each (18.8 lbs.)
