The APR coils are rebranded R8s, maybe APR improved them a little bit, but significantly shorten the lifespan on them, they don't last as long and you will misfire....
Hey man. Loving the videos. I used to have a MK5, so I like keeping up with all the EA888 gen 1 mods. Are you planning to be at AVF this year? Would love to see Elsa again. I saw her at Maggie Valley last year, which was actually how I found your channel.
be careful with the APR coils, as they did show an improvement for me but they failed within 5,000 miles and tons of people have issues with them. I went back to my BOSCH Red Tops but love the build and curious how they treat you!
Same story here. Went through 2 sets and both died prematurely with misfires :/ got a 3rd set as a warranty after reaching out to APR and explaining. Props to them for doing that and taking care of me. I ended up selling for some good ole r8.
For 0-60 times I’d recommend working in throttle control. In our cars you’ll never really put down all the power from launch, but can def manage it better than in the video, just fyi 👍🏼
That's def a work in progress. It was wet and cold and I totally forgot to hold first longer even though I mentioned it in the video. Just having fun when I realized I lost the constant of the measuring device.

Very great job man! Are you planning to take part in a trackday soon? Have you continued to train to become a heel-toe champion? :D

Hey! I would love to be at AVF this year but that is actually the weekend of my wife's due date so unfortunately not this year. But next for sure!
@@TheParkingLotMechanic Ah congrats! My wife is due during Wookies this year. No Fontana for me.
Congrats to you too! I am looking at VAG Fair York (PA) and L'oe Show for this year if you'll be at either! Gonna hit more next year.
I was thinking about Loe show, but it’s a bit far for me. We’ll see.

^Damn that’s disappointing. I was thinking about getting a set but if I have to constantly replace them it’s not worth it.
Glad I saw this
Haha I just bought them cause my car needs them plus they have lifetime warranty
There is a video showing APR coils give an improvement, and it is shown on a actual dyno.
